at 22:11:40Just out of curiosity, which dissociative disorders program were you in? I was in the
dissociative disorders unit at Rush in Chicago and was treated by Dr. Bennett Braun.
To me, it was like boot camp, so I'm wondering where you were that the experience
was very good.

> I've been in two different hospitals, and the difference was amazing. In one, (when I
was 24), my hospital experience was horrible. Years later, (34 or so) I went to a
special program in dissociative disorders and it was a very very good experience.

Also one hospital near me (Sheppard & Pratt--where Zelda Fitzgerald was many moons ago) has a good dissociative disorders unit, but they also always have a waiting list, I guess because people come from all over the country--so it is good for me to know that. Their short term evaluation unit where I spend one month in my twenties, was the worst experience I ever had. It was like I was already in hell and signed in and hell was even deeper. It took me many many years until I would consider going into a hospital again. shellie
