I’m kinda on risk for being put into one, so I kinda wanted to learn some stuff about how is it inside those. I think my biggest fear there is boredoom. Like, will I be able to videocall friends and/or listen to music there? Will my mp3 player/portable chinese retro emulator/phone/any eletronic be confiscated there?
This is pretty close to my experience. It wasn’t a hospital, kind of a crisis-level group home situation. The biggest downside was not being allowed to take a walk in the park across the street to stave off boredom, next was being monitored to take meds I wanted to take. Other than that, it was the most peaceful time of my adult life. I had 3 days to not worry about a single thing, interrupted one night when a screaming patient had to be removed from the premises. Then I had a few more days to start figuring out what I needed to change in my life to never have to go back.
