My Suicide Crisis and First Inpatient Treatment (part 2. feat. Aaron)

01/03/25 • 57 min

In this episode, my husband Aaron and I discuss my first inpatient/residential treatment experience at a crisis response facility called CRESST.
Together we explore the decision to go, what it was like to arrive with very limited information, and the importance of rest, monitored med management, and community.
And naturally - some ridiculously hilarious and embarrassing stories from my time there.
