I don't know if I should go inpatient and get the help that I need, or if I should wait it out and see what happens. I have a pros and cons list of each desicion.


Pros of going inpatient:                                                                                          Cons of going inpatient:

Get the help I need                                                                                        9 months minimum

Learn new coping skills                                                                          Dont get to see fam/friends

Meet new beneficial people


Pros of waiting it out:                                                                                              Cons of waiting it out:

Don't have to go inpatient                                                                               I might not get better

                                                                                                          Might do more harm than good


Please help me make a decision, I'm so lost.

Hey Maxi! Thanks for reaching out to us. I know how hard this decision is. Making a pros and cons list is a good first step, but the final decision is yours to make. The only thing we can do is listen and help if possible. But it's your life, after all.

You can always chat with a listener (including me) if you feel like you need somebody to listen. We might not be able to choose for you, but talking about it might make your thoughts a little less foggy.

Much love. Stay hydrated and take care! <3
