how to get admitted to the mental health dept.

I've never before thought of myself as insane and the thought of going to madhouse scares me...until I went to one today.
Another department at work was short staffed and my boss decided to send me in to help them. So I went looking for notes in the psych ward.
First I was shitting myself thinking people would know my inner mad thoughts of shooting my manager whilst eating doughnuts. But once I got there I didnt want to leave! It was sooooo nice and peaceful (apart from the odd chilling scream of course, but you can get over that). I walked past one of the 'cells' and yes...they are indeed padded. I always thought it was just over exaggeration on the media's part but it wasn't but then I started wondering 'Where can I find some material to staple to my walls??' and 'How fun would it be to run into the wall when I can't decide what to wear in the morning?'
Anywho, I must've collected the notes but because I was so tempted to declare myself a 'crazy person' I decided to nosy around the 'sanctuary garden'. Ohhh it was so cool. I used to be loud but now I'm turning into those people who always thinks 'I should've bought my book' and indeed...I SHOULD'VE BOUGHT MY BOOK!!!! It was quiet and peaceful and birds chirping and this lovely weather, wooden benches and clean cut grass just calling me to leave the patient notes behind and chillax in the sanctuary garden. And all the time I was thinking 'hmmmm what can I do to get myself into here, lol.
