I was wondering if anybody here had experience with Ridgeview Medical Center in Oak Ridge, Tennessee? I'm looking for personal experiences because I can't find any reviews online. My girlfriend is thinking about going there, but we want to make sure it isn't going to do more harm than good.
Alternatively, does anybody have any experience with any mental health hospitals around the East/Middle Tennessee area? It doesn't have to be in Tennessee... like maybe surrounding states (Kentucky, South/North Carolina, etc.).
Any help is appreciated. And I am posting this to a few other communities, so sorry if you see it more than once.

If it wasn't for this community I wouldn't have known about 1800-suicide. And might not be here to post this
1800-suicide works. All I was able to say was hi. but it worked it stopped me, or well helped me stop my self. I think I just needed to hear the voice of someone that understood and knew I was in a bad place mentally. I have never had someone vocally to talk to at that point. this was the closest I ever came to an attempt on my life. I had all the tools out. I kept switching from suicide preparations or trying to call. I called then hung up right away then started to try and kill my self then I went back to the phone. I went back and forth and called them 4 times, staying on longer and longer each time. By the 4th time I was able to say "hi". After the 4th time I was able to put all my stuff away have a snack and take a nap.

Contemplating suicide.

I am not a suicide survivor, I have never contemplated suicide, but I am dealing with the loss of my sister due to suicide. I am really emotional about it right now so I can't write too much, but I want all of you to know that it is not the answer, and please remember it leaves many, many, many people dazed and confused about how horrible they must have treated the suicidal person and what they did wrong to make that person want to hurt themselves like that. I am not judging a single one of you AT ALL, just know that the people who love you will have no clue as to what to do when and if you are gone. I also know that this sounds like we are only worried about ourselves but that is not the truth and I don't want you to think that is how we think, but there are people out there who you will leave with many many many millions of unanswered questions! I don't know, I lost my sister to suicide two years ago, I still feel the pain everyday as if I just got the phone call that same day, most days I can't help myself from crying and the thing that I worry the most about is, Did my sister think I hated her when she pulled that trigger? I will never for the rest of my life be able to answer that question, and that is going to eat me up for the REST OF MY LIFE!

This may be more of a self injury thing but idk. I have been cutting my wrists a lot lately. Every time it seems there is more blood then the last. It is a self injury addition but I fear it might be going beyond that slowly. My weakness is that I can't tell anyone that can help. Because they will tell my parents. I don't like the way my parents react when they find out I have been hurting myself. My parents are scarry because they react on emotion rather than logic. I accually quit for a few months but now I am back to being a cutter. :(. I hate myself for starting to cut again.

i'm at my witts end. it's like i hit rock bottom...then i keep spiraling down more...and more...and more...it's never ending.
so i'm just going to give up, end it all. pills, cutting, poision, hanging, so if one doesn't work, another will. so if someone pulls me down from the rope, there's the pills or the poison. if someone catches me before i cut, theres the pills. im doing it in that order too.

So, I tried about a couple years ago, taking pills to end things. I was going through a rough time. I had fallen for someone that did not reciprocate my feelings. Now couple years later, I'm almost to that stage again. Right now, I'm literally living day to day. Trying not to get depressed, but it's not working. I've been through hell the past year. I have no idea why but my whole town plays games with me, tries to control me, tries to convert me to some kind of religion (I'm an atheist). I have no idea what to do anymore. One of my Mom's friends actually said admitted there's a reason why? But, of course he wouldn't say what the reason is? They are forcing me to confront issues that from the past that I do not want to confront. I'm exhausted. They are all such hypocrites.
I've been bullied, laughed at, riduculed, and rejected, and it happens on a weekly basis. I just want the pain to end. I honestly don't want to live anymore.

I attempted months ago and obviously failed. Pills. Hardcore caffeine/diet pills. My blood pressure was 210/205 with a heartbeat of 145 and I am healthy as can be now. Why? Because I'm a failure. Happiness doesn't come often and if it does it's immensely short-lived and useless. I don't know what to live for anymore. My ultimate life goal is to be a criminal profiler for the FBI and that used to be enough for me to live for. I used to tell myself to move past it just a little longer so I can get to that point in life... but lately even that's not enough to live for. And it hurts. Sucks a lot because I have to convince myself DAILY to live one more day... just try life out again. I don't know what to do anymore...

and things have gotten pretty bad for me, I don't think I'd ever commit suicide (not anymore at least). Dealing is hard, but when you think about what you lose, the opportunities and the struggles that make you who you are. Death shouldn't be feared, but moreso, neither should life.

This is really weird but I don't know where else to vent anonymously.
My life is completely turbulent right now and obviously since I'm writing here, I have thought about killing myself because of it. I've attempted suicide five times in the past and haven't had those thoughts in a couple years since things up until recently have been the best they've been my entire life.
For the record, I'm a 19 year old girl (I'm turning 20 on the 28th). My mom commit suicide in January, which left a huge hole in my chest. She was incredibly abusive to me and had a heroin addiction that led me to running away from home when I was 13 and I hadn't spoken to her since. Recently, my living situation has been terrible. My brother and his wife moved to Seattle (I live in Los Angeles) whom I was staying with. I was living on and off with my dad and his girlfriend. His girlfriend and I don't get along very well and they sort of kicked me out a few months ago, despite the fact that I didn't do anything to provoke it, just his girlfriend not liking having me around. The only person I have really is my boyfriend, who is my whole world. He's my family and my best friend. I live with him right now and his bandmates, who are all close friends of mine, as well. Everything is wonderful with them and our circle of friends has increasingly become the family I never had. I found out recently that my boyfriend cheated on me with this girl, who coincidentally also hooked up with my friend's boyfriend two years ago. My boyfriend is a drummer, and she is a drummer in a band, so I feel the inevitable "I am no match" insecurity levels fluctuating. He says he still loves me and it was a big mistake but everyone I love has killed themselves and/or turned their backs on me and I feel like I have no one. I have no emotional stamina left and don't see a point to continuing on living and dealing with this monotony of people fucking me over. I'm so heartbroken and I just feel like I have nothing left. I don't feel comfortable talking about this with anyone I know and I don't know what to do.

i'm new to this community, so i'm not sure if i should introduce myself. but my name is marissa and i'm 16. things have been really rough for me lately and i kind of feel like none of my friends can really help. i wanna explain my problems in depth so you guys can understand me, but i'm not gonna do that all at once. right now i'm just upset because i googled the legal definition of rape because i was sexually assaulted by a guy a few weeks ago. my best friend scolded me saying that it was my fault that it happened because i could've stopped it. but i tried. and since i didn't give my consent, it was technically rape. but i feel like if i was being raped i would've fought back and i didn't. so i'm just considering sexual assault. but thats why i went online to read about it so that i could reassure myself that everything that happened wasn't my fault. obviously, this has all been really upsetting to me. i'm an emotional wreck. well to top it off, i left my computer account up online and my little brother read my whole search history, and showed my mom. my whole family keeps making fun of me for it. it's making me so upset, like they don't even understand what i'm going through. i have no privacy in my house and no respect. and i have no respect at school either. people think i'm a drunken whore and guys just use me constantly. i feel like if i died right now it wouldn't even matter. i just want to give up.

Is there some online test or something you can take to find out your potential for suicide?

It's been months since I've posted here.
I only post when I'm suicidal.
It's not a very active community, but it's an EXTRAORDINARILY supportive community.
I'm really feeling like killing myself right now.
I have a couple potential methods at hand.
I just felt that I should tell someone that.
Thanks for listening.
