I want to go back to the mental hospital so bad. I got in there in the first place because I wanted too and I was curious on what it was like. At first it felt a little odd and new. But once I warmed up, I actually really liked it there and felt like I belonged. I had friends that understood, got away from my parents, and had a schedule (I discovered I really liked it when someone else plans out what I’m supposed to do for me). Plus it was never boring unlike my current life! How do I go back to a mental hospital without getting beat by my dad?

repeatedly putting yourself in the facility is not a good idea. what your dad is doing sucks and your first priority should really be getting away from him.
anyway, yeah, having a secure life where everything feels guaranteed (friends, schedule, mutual understanding) is great but can also be replicated outside of the hospital. please do not build a reliance on the facility.
The thing is, I like my mom and she’s good but she refuses to leave my dad, thinking he’ll get better. I don’t just want to leave her so it feels kinda hopeless.

Man, institutionalization must be pretty brutal.
IMO it was a nice vacation and I would’ve lived there if I could’ve. The only things I didn’t like was getting my blood drawn and having to do individual therapy which makes me very anxious.
