RE: 100 consecutive days blogging on the Hive in the I am Alive Challenge and I'd love to hear your thoughts too.

I don’t know much of the mental health system in the Netherlands, but I assume that peeler have their own rooms with toilet and probably also bathroom. Unless that would be dangerous because they are suicidal.

I do however think that in the Netherlands the mental health professionals can be more focused on solving the problem, than actually looking at the person.

Other than that I think it is quite well organized here. But I have to say that I have no experience whatsoever with it.

Congrats on the 100th day also!

Funny, that's exactly what most people think here too and it so completely the opposite.

Most people I tell here that women and young girls have to share the wards with all kinds of sick and violent men are completely shocked and horrified cause they thought what you think...

Hopefully you are right and that yours are ok over there....

Thanks so much for responding, I really appreciate it!!!

That is just awful. Being vulnerable and then not being in a safe place..
