At the time, i was homeless, I was suicidal, and was Baker acted.. First of all.. You have 3 room mates, and no privacy.. As for hope of getting out, good luck.. They try to boost your morale and you will hope to see your doctor, when He never shows.. They charge you about 1000$ a night, and being homeless and baker acted, it certainly did not help, I found a few staff members cool, but other than that, You are treated like a Dog, and you are talked to like a Toddler.. As I went in, my mental health was horrible, and I was being defiant.. My second day, I attempted an escape, and earned the nickname jailbreak.. Haha.. However They sent me to what everyone calls "the dark side" which truly is a dark and creepy uncomfortable abusive place.. The dark side was mentally tormenting, After I was slammed to my bed and injected with sedatives, I woke up the next day to a singing, crying masturbating guy trying to jizz on me.. And my crack head spaced out black dude.. As the staff told me to just deal with it.. The place was horribly dirty and dark, and the energy was just so depressing.. I would have much rather slept in the woods on rocks than ever go to the dark side again.. not only was the food horrible, The chairs were so uncomfortable, My room was always flooded from the shower.. Eventually, I was locked in a closet sized room with a camera in the ceiling, But I do prefer that room over the flooded room with the masturbating singing crying guy.. I spent 3 days in the dark side, at this point I was blank and my depression was worse.. They broke me.. I went back the light side, and at this point, the light side felt like heaven.. At this point, I had new room mates, More sane ones.. But I was room mates with 3 people who ALL snored VERY loud.. If you do not interact with people they keep you longer, If you do not eat the shitty food they keep you longer.. ( the food gets better the more happy you get.. They eventually take you to the cafeteria where the food is actually decent..) And if you want to shave.. Be prepared to be watched.. You will not have privacy.. AT ALL.. however I read a review saying that men can come in and rape you.. Nah.. You have too many room mates, and cameras, and security for this to happen.. it is nonsense.. I do find it soothing to have females to talk to when you are in a depressed state, So i can give them some pro's there.. Also you get smoke breaks about every 2 hours, and they also give you free cigs.. Pretty nifty.. You also get access to the fridge for as much food, drink and coffee you could want.. In my opinion.. This place is only bad if you are REALLY crazy, or you cause a scene or throw fits.. Or escape.. The dark side is straight up abuse.. But honestly your freedom in the light side is pretty nice.. You can make as many calls as you want until 10:30pm, You get smoke breaks, Good Food if you earn trust... Ladies! and freedom to leave your room whenever you need.. I personally dont recommend this place.. For comfort, its better than MHRC, unless you go to the dark side.. .. But for price.. I was there for about 15 days and left homeless and over 15k in debt..
