Contact Child Protection Services in your area and tell them of your situation. I work for CPS in California and we have tons of group homes that specialize in therapeutic treatments for behavioral problems, drug dependency sexual abuse, cutting,etc. Or contact your county's public health department and they should be able to assist you. Good luck to you.

I know that there is one on Wisconsin Ave in Northwest DC. It's near Jennifer Street if I remember correctly. I can't remember that dang name. If I do I will contact you. It really helped my niece when she was still a young teen.\n\nOkay, I found it. the Psych Institute of Washington. Web address: http://www.psychinstitute.com/\nI hope this helps you.

I have been hospitalized 7 times since I was sbout 15 (am 27 now), but never was it a planned stay like yours, nor was it at someplace "fancy" that Elvis went to. I'm not sure exactly what information you are looking for, how old you are (18 and under stay in a different ward) or the reason for your stay so it is hard to answer your question. I will say though that my stays have been more interesting than scary. I assume you are scared about who you might meet. But it's not like you are going to some state run asylum...you are going to a place celebrities go, that ought to tell you something. \nExperiences are going to vary considerably though, perhaps modify your question to be a bit more specific.\n\nafter reading your modification:\nYes that is a little different from places I've been, the part about being free to come and go. We were basically on "lock down" at first (couldn't even leave the unit to go to the cafeteria to eat, a food tray was brought to us). Then after a few days you earned your privileges by being "good" and participating in sessions like you were supposed to. But if you messed up, you lost the privileges. \nSounds like it should be a good experience for you...the benefit of the therapy sessions but still being allowed to go home on weekends. \nYou don't have anything to be scared of. You'll meet some interesting people and hear some sad stories, I think that will be the worst of it. My worst experiences were when I was in juvenile wards and they mostly had to do with the fact that they also grouped us with mentally disturbed people (in the retarded or autistic sense, not mental health sense) and those folks could be violent and unpredictable.\nI hope this helps a little. Don't be scared. I hope this gets you on the track to wellness!!!!\nIf you have any more questions, you could email me at kofnandk@yahoo.com.\n\nGood Luck!!

You could go to youth hostels, the YMCA, the Salvation Army.  There are lots of choices but are you sure leaving your family is a good idea right now?  I don't know what the problem is but usually if you leave before it gets resolved you will never resolve them.  I moved out when I was 16 as well and now I haven't talked to my sisters or my parents in 13 years.  Weigh your options carefully.

You can go to a local welfare office and they can give you information on Section 8 Housing.  Since I don't know the state or town to which you are referring, I can't get any more specific.  \n\nGood luck with your new family. :)

When I lived in Portland, Oregon, at Denver and Lombard there is a tavern called the farmers barn tavern if you go  there, you will find everybody is crazier than you are and for the price of a couple of beers.  It's well worth the investment and if that's not your cup of tea.  Look in the book, Multnomah County adult mental services.  I believe the service is free for low income individuals.  Good luck and I hope all is well
