Drug Rehab Centers in Lyman, South Carolina

Was released Aug 2nd 2024 after staying 11 days due to a suicide attempt. I was the definition of involuntary admission. Would only quote my name D.OB. and last 4 of social to emergency room nurses, demanded to be released in North wing and was rapidly put in the back room for more "intensive cases. I found my room sparse yet spacious. Was so against having any form of attention( vitals medication etc) that I used the two chairs to form a barricade and hunkered down in the corner of the room. I remained like this for two days refused food refused to leave the room and slept. When I realized my behavior was paranoid( which I'm not) and was getting no further towards release I decided to come out not to engage but to show I was normal. In doing so another patient was able to make me laugh. Finally having a smile when my psychiatrist came by and asked what could be done I tried to give them a problem that to me seemed unsolvable. Can you take away my nightmares? I was shocked when they said yes. More so when they followed through. After that I decided to shift my perspective and not see it as a jail, but instead as a place that taught structure stability and above all hope. as I worked with my doc, and began to conversate with the nurses as human beings and not wardens, I saw the care kindness and patience they had. I began to emulate this behavior and connected with other patients. I can say by the time I was discharged I felt like I was leaving my family hugs and best wishes, even the cafeteria staff had become close and said they would miss me. I went in not realizing how desperately I needed help and left not fixed,as that is a long journey , but ready. Ready to strive ready to live ready to heal. Give this place a real chance trust that they aren't working to keep you in but are wanting to give you tools to get out. I've made lifelong friends here shared in pain joy fear and hope with people who are some of the strongest and kindest I've ever met. I'm now facing the road ahead and am admittedly a bit scared, but confident i have the ability to over come.To those who wonder, I was diagnosed with three mental illnesses severe MDD chronic recurring PTSD and BPD. Individually any one of these are crippling,one isn't even curable, but I know even against these odds I'm capable of not just living but living happily and finally experiencing a truly whole life. Thank you to everyone, the staff my fellow patients and all others. Without your help support and love I would have never had what I have now, hope ,and a smile.

Solutions recovery has helped me in every aspect of my life. i am forever indebted to SRC
