I
still
remember
my
first
and
my
last
day
in
this
clinic
very
clearly.
My
stay
lasted
4.5
months.
As
I
always
like
to
say,
it
was
a
journey,
a
journey
back
to
myself.
I
came
here
with
severe
depression.
But
I
didn't
know
that
beforehand.
I
didn't
know
what
was
wrong
with
me.
I
only
know
how
I
felt
when
I
got
there.
Because
I
didn't
know
what
to
do
anymore.
For
me,
taking
this
step
was
an
admission.
An
admission
that
I
have
done
a
lot
of
wrong
things
in
the
past
when
it
comes
to
myself.
The
decision
to
seek
help
was
not
an
easy
one.
But
above
all,
to
even
allow
such
a
thought
in
this
direction….
It
took
a
while
before
I
even
accepted
the
diagnosis.
I
think
that
only
happened
after
6
weeks.
The
symptoms
are
more
than
clear.
But
accepting
it
yourself
is
another
matter.
The
clinic
helped
me
to
accept
the
illness,
but
above
all
to
understand
it
and
to
understand
myself.
This
enabled
me
to
enjoy
life
again.
to
have
strength.
To
be
able
to
take
part
in
everyday
life
again,
as
it
once
was.
To
sleep
properly
again.
I
learned
a
lot
about
myself.
I
got
to
know
new
sides
and
what
is
important
and
what
is
not.
There
was
catered
lunch
there,
but
also
the
teaching
kitchen,
where
the
patients
or
as
I
prefer
to
call
them:
“fellow
travelers”
were
allowed
to
cook
for
everyone
else.
I
say
they
were
allowed
to
because
it
wasn't
a
must.
No
compulsion.
The
staff
also
ate
this
food.
That
was
great.
There
was
group
therapy
twice
a
week,
with
a
fixed
group
of
fellow
travelers.
Like
a
school
class
where
people
exchanged
ideas,
respected
each
other,
but
also
helped
each
other.
Individual
discussions
with
a
permanent
therapist
twice
a
week.
Art
and
music
therapy,
where
people
exchanged
ideas,
painted
pictures
or
improvised
with
instruments.
There
were
also
sports
options.
In
groups,
but
also
private
sport
if
desired.
Mindfulness,
sound
meditation,
movement
therapy,
Pilates,
creative
expression
(theater,
acting),
perception
therapy
and
the
writing
workshop.
I
hope
I
did
not
forget
anything.
If
it
became
too
much,
etc.
you
were
allowed
to
leave
the
room
during
all
therapies.
As
I
said,
there
was
no
compulsion.
That
would
also
have
been
counterproductive.
The
therapists
and
staff
were
very
professional
and
compassionate.
But
in
a
very
honest
way.
You
weren't
left
behind.
The
fellow
travelers
that
I
got
to
know
were
just
great.
Very
special
people.
Some
have
become
real
friends.
In
the
groups,
but
also
in
general,
there
was
a
lot
of
trust
among
each
other.
I
was
able
to
gain
a
lot
from
all
the
therapies.
I
have
continued
to
do
sound
meditation
since
being
laid
off
because
I
know
that
it
offers
me
balance.
But
I
also
discovered
writing.
I've
been
writing
almost
every
day
since
being
laid
off.
I
never
thought
how
much
this
would
help
me.
I
haven't
been
in
the
clinic
for
2.5
months
and
what
has
changed
for
the
better
in
that
time
is
really
unbelievable
for
me.
I
am
extremely
grateful
for
this
opportunity.
Thanks
to
the
entire
team.
