Meds work but it’s not the ONLY thing. mentally ill people need more than a schedule of “take your pills and wander around the room for hours” Just stick me in front of the fucking TV for 10 days and if I act out I clearly don’t have to talk about it learn to cope or literally rewire my brain to not self destruct, forget bettering yourself. If you can’t act normal by the time you get out well fuck your you’re going back in cause you’re a threat to yourself and others
But I can’t move forward cause they aren’t giving me what I actually need. You think suicidal ideation is purely biological? No it’s not. No amount of constant observation without actual engagement of tackling the problems is gonna solve anything
