Sent Away?

I found out today from my therapist today that if I keep going into the hospital for feeling suicidal, bad things are going to happen. I will have no choice but to go to residential treatment (where you live in a treatment facility) for at least a month. Due to the type of treatment I need – I would be sent out of state, most likely to the northern states or the west coast. It would either be something that I would have to fight through many, many hoops with my insurance to get approved...or pay tens of thousands of dollars out of pocket for. Plus, its being sent away because no one here treatment-wise wants me.

I am so sorry that your medical care is not good. Don´t they have a hospital near where you live. Why send you away to an alien environment?

Two reasons 1 - only treatment facility by my house doesn't take the insurance I have now 2 - I was raped at that facility

@Lolaze How can they rape you there and noone either closes it or sends the offender to jail?!

It will, I just won't look to the hospital for help anymore.
