It was my first down down down down point

i was admitted when i was 13 or 14. i was experiencing a real low point and had been cutting. i told a friend who told my teacher, who called my mom, who called my shrink.

i ended up staying for about 2 weeks, we had group sessions and individual therapy sessions every day. there were activities and outings.

i met some really great friends who i have kept in touch with through the years. i don't recall it really helping a whole lot at the time, but it did give me some new coping methods. looking back, i think it was worth it.
