Appalachee Mental Health is a horrible place to go. The pamphlet reads that they strive to treat…read moreclients with dignity. Calling you Mr. or Mrs. Is the only dignity I experienced. I was out my mind when I got there the first time and they locked me in a red lit room and the telepathic "Beta" torment began... The second time was just as bad. I slept in a filthy floor in the waiting room for two days without any of my medications. I threw up every meal because of this. So after the first day, I didn't eat until the third day. While I waited for two days in the waiting room I noticed some of the same people there antagonizing the clients in the waiting room. To my best perception these are street bums who are allowed to come earn a bed for a few days by antagonizing legitimate clients who are experiencing delusional behavior. I fell for this song and dance the first trip, that's how I ended up in the red lit hallway where my "Beta" horror began. I was better prepared the second trip and made it out without being provoked into further delusion. I've had a few breaks from reality since my father passed away. The last experience I was treated at the Tallahassee Memorial Behavior unit. It truly was a dignified experience. They are professional and the facility is much cleaner than Appalachee. There were no street bums provoking and harassing the clients. If your loved one needs mental health support Tallahassee Memorial is the way to go.

I went here when I was eleven years old and on my fourteenth birthday after I tried to end my life…read morebecause of the things I had seen and went through in the mental health system, especially with the prescription cascade epidemic that has been going on since Covid. The first night I went there, I met my ex boyfriend (They didn't enforce Hippa laws enough so I kept contact with him after discharge) we spent six hours in the waiting room before heading up to the ward. The adolescent ward was filthy. Dirt on the floor, rusty mesh chains over windows, and the dining area smelled nasty for some reason. The outdoor area was no bigger than a bedroom so we just sat around. At night, you can hear the adults acting out from the adolescent ward which is pretty chaotic. There's a hard time delievering medications to patients which could be bad news for those with severe mental conditions. The kids with high suicide risks aren't checked on often and someone even ended up medically dead once by using the bedsheets but they were thankfully revived. And just like every psychiatric unit, they always tell you "you're here to get better" while screwing us over then saying we're getting worse so we need more "help". Help can only be defined by the person who's recieving it, not what the person giving it . Help can be simple, just listening to someone could be enough. But they don't want to just listen because then they wouldn't get paid as much. Hell, I saw a seven year old autistic child cry in there because he wanted to go home. Why was he there? He said a common phrase everyone's been saying while he was having a tantrum in school: "I want to die" I said the same thing at that age but didn't mean it, neither did that child and it was clear he didn't but they just wanted to make a profit off of him too. So yeah, these places SUCK.

I'm sure some of us get anxiety from new things so I'll try to be as detailed as possible. I couldn't be happier with my experience here. I called to make an appointment and quickly connected with someone who was friendly and helpful. Although BHS was not in my network, they were very upfront about the self-pay fee ($375) and took my payment info over the phone. There were no surprise fees or billing issues. My evaluation appointment was a little over a week later and the clinical interview was two weeks after the eval. Both appointments were done via video call. Right after the initial phone call, I received a portal link via email where I could see my future appointments and fill out an intake document. The document's format made it tricky to fill out, but not enough so to deduct a star. They send text and email reminders for all appointments. A couple days before each appointment, I received a link via text to the telehealth room. The system worked great with no issues. Both the evaluators and Dr. Colvin-Guthrie were kind and professional. You can really tell that they review your information before the appointment. I never felt any pressure or judgment and I felt comfortable sharing and asking queations. If requested, BHS will send you a copy of your records and fax them to the provider(s) of your choice. Overall, this was an incredibly positive and validating experience. If you are considering a mental health evaluation, I couldn't recommend BHS more!
