I never like hospitals. I just dont see what **most** treatment programs really have to offer. They jiggle meds, toss in some self-help stuff, and *BAM!* you're right back out there. Its really not a terribly contructive option...I don't think surrendering your freedom and autonomy is at all "therapeutic," especially when you don't present a risk to anyone.
If you want to reduce external pressure on yourself, maybe you could go away for a bit? I mean, just you, alone...use $$$ you would have spent on a mental hospital and stay at a hotel or a rented condo or something and chill. Write, think about stuff, maybe re-connect with some old friends. Just my advice.
