Spring Harbor Hospital

This is a psych hospital in the state of Maine. I have pretty bad complex PTSD, so I have a history of 22 hospitalizations, nine suicide attempts. This is a decent facility compared to a lot of other psych units I’ve been in.
The food if you get off-​unit privileges is excellent, where you can stuff yourself to your heart’s delight with mushrooms and pickles and other nutritious salads and goodies; all the on-​unit snacks are fat-​free and sugar-​laden though.
The attending doctors tend to have the kind of conservative «I’ve been doing this for twenty years» pro-​establishment cluelessness and aren’t likely to be persuaded by discussions of clinical literature (I’m a biochemistry graduate) but there are some very astute and compassionate young psychiatric residents who are attuned to gender identity, LGBT and Asian-​American issues.
