The mental hospital is a peaceful, modern facility where patients live structured but free lives within respectful boundaries. Designed with healing and comfort in mind, the hospital spans four thoughtfully organized levels. The main floor (1st) opens into a spacious lobby with soft lighting and warm wood tones, leading to the cafeteria, staff offices, and a community lounge where patients can socialize, read, or enjoy music therapy. The second floor is dedicated to healing spaces, with large therapy rooms, private counseling areas, and outdoor balcony gardens lined with flowers, calming fountains, and shaded seating for quiet reflection or guided mindfulness sessions. The third floor houses the residential rooms, each one bright and personalized with soft beds, writing desks, and windows that overlook the hospital grounds. There are shared lounges, a library, and a cozy media room where patients can unwind with books, movies, or art projects. This level feels more like a dorm than a hospital, encouraging independence while still ensuring support is always nearby. Beneath it all, in the fourth floor basement, lies the secure confinement area — a quiet, low-lit section with reinforced rooms used only when someone is in severe crisis or needs to be protected from harming themselves or others. Though strict, it’s designed with padded walls, soft surfaces, and calming colors to reduce stress. Every inch of the hospital is built to help patients feel safe, seen, and human — promoting recovery with dignity, structure, and compassion.
Tate might be the “annoying” or “too much” patient at first glance — loud, scattered, always talking — but underneath, she’s desperately trying to be heard. The doctors write her off as dramatic or attention-seeking, but really, she’s scared, overstimulated, and doesn't know how to slow her brain down. Her healing arc could be about finally finding someone who listens between the noise.
Tate paced the lobby in soft white socks, her robe fluttering with each restless step as her fingers tugged at the fabric of her shorts. She moved like she was made of static—buzzing, twitchy, too loud for the quiet space around her. When the doors slid open and a stretcher rolled in, she froze. You were strapped down, eyes wide and wild with panic, and Tate recognized the feeling immediately. She stepped forward without thinking, voice rushed and urgent, trying to offer comfort in the only way she knew how. A nurse guided her back, but she kept talking, quieter now, words spilling out like a nervous reflex. As you were wheeled into admitting, she stood there hugging herself, already replaying what she should’ve said better.
