    I'm sure your friends will understand if you explain it to them, and if they don't then they obviously weren't very good friends in the first place. If you don't want them to know, just tell them you have some problems to deal with and you have to go to a hospital for a little while. Good luck! :slight_smile:

    I already lost my best friend for telling him about it And I couldn't lie to them because if I dissaper for 4 or 5 weeks there going to want to know about it and what else would I be doing and if I just don't tell them then they won't like me anymore

    I was put in the hospital at age 16, for attempting suicide and what they thought was schizophrenia (was major depression with psychotic episodes) I was gone a couple Weeks. My friends were very supportive, my then boyfriend is now my husband. I think everyone felt a little weird when I came back, but I was open and let them ask questions, etc and it made people I think feel less awkward about it.

    If your friends are not supportive or no longer your friends, they are not worth having in your life to begin with.

    Oh, and because I left on a weekend, no one really know, Mt siblings did not disclose what was going on, thru just said I was sick. left it up to me to tell or not. Some I didn't at first and IRS completely up to you what you want to disclose.

    I live in a small town (boyertown)and word travels fast so I would bacicly just leave and disapear for a couple of weeks then come back and act like nothing happened or come back and tell one person then everyone will know I'm crazy and I had to go to a mental hospital and if I know people that go to my school they will call it an asylum and that I'm a psycho

    I was small town also, there were a lot of rumors when I came back. The thing with rumors are, you can let them control you. Or you can control them. I still made it my choice what I shared, people will talk whether you tell them or not.
