I have been committed to a mental health facility.

I was committed to a mental health clinic today following a suicide attempt late last night.

I’ve been here for a day and I don't feel better regarding my situation, I don't know when I will. I did not want this but I was not offered any choice in the matter. I insisted that my discomfort of hospitals and cutting off my only support network and access to what I enjoy doing in my everyday life would be harmful to my already fragile mental state but they said if I don’t commit myself they will force me and call the police to escort me there.

The facility itself is cold and discomforting, I couldn't eat the food I was served either. I don't feel like this place helps me at all. So far it has only made me feel nervous and uncomfortable. I don't know when I will be released from here. It could be in a few days or it could take weeks.

On top of this the anxiety of becoming homeless and not having a stable income is causing me a lot of stress. It's why I've struggled to put videos out and stream lately. I'm sorry if I've made anyone worry and I'm thankful for the support and help I've gotten from so many of you.
