    I’m glad your cat was fine and just being a goober, and not anything more serious. I’m also glad to hear that you’re doing any amount of better. Progress is very rarely a straight line, and almost always includes ups and downs.

    How was your experience during inpatient care? Did it align or differ from the experiences discussed in this thread so far?

      I was in a combined depression and substance abuse unit. It was mostly boring. We had privacy when in the shower or the can. Doors had to be open when we were sleeping. Law enforcement wasn’t involved at all. It was a private hospital, not state-run. I wouldn’t ever want to go back but AFAICT it was pretty good as far as mental hospitals go.
