i too have been in the hospital several times (the last few not long enough). anymore hospitals want to get you out so the typical stay is 2-3 days. however the first time i was in i was there two weeks and third time was there one week so it depends. however, i voluntarily put myself there and that makes the world of difference. cuz you can get out when you want (usually if doc disagrees you need a 48 hour written notice). but my experiences in the hospital were mostly good. However, once when i od'd i was taken to a crisis center run by the county. THAT WAS HORRIBLE! so take my advice and be proactive. if you are feeling suicidal talk with your T or pdoc, or just go to the hospital they'll evaluate you and choose to admit you or not.
best wishes
