May Trigger some so a lovely TW for those who may be triggered..
I've been thinking about IP ever since I went AWOL on Thursday night, and sectioned on Friday. I had a bed, and it seemed okay, and I was willing to carry on with the truth and take this bed.
But I couldn't cos I had a friend staying over, and she didn't know the way back to the train station.
So again, I've put others before myself.
I've had Home Treatment round for the weekend, and asked them about IP and they said if I'm 100% sure they'll look around for a bed for me.
I'm just wondering if anyone has been in IP before, and how did you find it? I know everywhere is different, and I know I'm around 80% sure to go in. But just need some comfort around it I guess..

I've never been an inpatient but just wanted to say that if you think it is right for you, then you can be admitted voluntarily. I hope things can improve for you soon *hug*
