Backstory: I (26F) was diagnosed 8 years ago as bp1. I've been stable for the last 3 years and medicated for the last 5. Lately I've been rapid cycling, drinking heavily, hurting myself, and having thoughts of ending it. My regular weekly therapy and meds have just not been enough lately to make me want to stick around.

I know I need help. I've never been to a crisis center and the ones around me have really mixed reviews. Is it worth the visit? Have they been able to actually help any of you? All advice welcome.
