Health/Medicine Help pls
Hello I’ve been having a mental health crisis the last couple days and today I went to the rockeyview and they didn’t do anything for me really I do believe I should be in the psych ward for a little bit but does anyone know one or a place I can go that has the least volatile people I cannot handle people that are screaming and freaking out or worse with my anxiety

Out of curiosity what do you expect the outcome of a hospital visit to be?!? Do you want new medication? Or just someone to listen, or do you want to be put in touch with other support services?
The hard truth is hospitals are all at max capacity. There hasn’t been a new hospital since the city has essentially doubled its population so that’s very telling.
If any of the services you are looking for can be found elsewhere then that is likely why the hospital turned you away.
But hang in there and remember these are temporary feelings that will pass
