I have anxiety from molestation. i tried to kill myself at least 3 times but have thoughts about suicide everyday, should i go to a mental hospital?

Probably.: You then will need therapy with someone familiar with the special needs of sexual trauma survivors. You do need to go to a hospital that knows how to assess trauma and stabilize in appropriate ways. You will probably Ned to consider medications for the depressive symptoms and learn coping skills to deal with the suicidal ideations. Please take action soon!
