Valley Psychiatry Hospital
Okay, my mom thinks I have an unordinary obsession with death. Don't know why, but anyway..
I also -horrorhorrorshockshock- have been cutting myself for the past few months, nothing real serious. But now she feels like she needs to take me to Valley, this psychiatry hospital thing where the "suicidally disturbed" have to go for a while.
So, yeah. BUt I don't want to go. How can I convince my mo that I don't need to go?
And even if I do go, has anyone been to anything like this because I need to know what they're like so I'll know.
I'm scared and I really don't want to go. HELP!!

Could you agree to see a therapist? Or at the very least, to talk to a therapist to get the therapist's opinion on whether or not you need inpatient treatment?
Your mom is doing this because she's worried about you. My mom did practically the same thing, but my doctor did too--they sent me to a (regular) hospital because they thought I was in trouble. They assessed me at the hospital and essentially said my doctor was in idiot because I needed therapy, not IP care.
But if she does agree to let you see a therapist, you have to be honest. It will allow them to help you, and it will mean they can trust you. If you're dishonest and they find out, they'll have a lot of trouble trusting you later on, and you'll have much less control and influence over your care.
I kind of went off-topic there, but I hope it was even moderately useful anyway.

k well firstly, you know that cutting is not good and can get worse and worse. two my friends (one was my best friend) started cutting. at first it was a couple cuts, and then one of them started to cut on her neck and stuff. they had to go to rehab because there parents found out. i hadn't seen them for a month or two because but you can still visit them (family). when they came back they looked SO much better. my friend said that it was like school but it started from 12:00-6:00. she told me that they would talk about there problems and try to solve them too. over all she really liked it and had fun, AND it made her ALOT, ALOT, ALOT, better. so really about trying to convince your parents on not sending you there, i would really want to go and try to stop this before it gets serous. i mean the one girl who started cutting like all over her body, she almost died. && you want to stop that before your in a situation like that.
hope everything works out.
and hope i helped.
