Central State Hospital; Lunatic Asylum; Milledgeville, Georgia

I'm not sure it would be such a "great" experience to be honest with you. I think it would be a depressing and frustrating experience. At best, it might be enlightening to realize all that we take for granted.

I would totally love to visit a mental asylum 1day....i think it would be such a great experience. I would love to see how some of the ppl in the mental asylum's react on a daily basis if anyone knows how to get in a real asylum please contact me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@mysaige001 I'd say just contact local ones to see about tours, but I bet a million bucks that would be unlikely. You could always try to intern somewhere, I guess. This is just me thinking.

[mysaige001]

@UrbanExplorerMilbyy Well ill see what I can do but thanks 4 the help!!!!

[rachelistic1984]

@mysaige001 Since it is a hospital, you can't just walk in and view the patients. That would violate their rights, but central state does offer tours of the campus and has a museum. It's really sad that a lot of the buildings on campus are closing due to state budget cuts, but it is still very fascinating to see. I feel like you would be a little disappointed, because it's not like something you see in a movie. It's like going to a nursing home almost.

@mysaige001 The best way is to volunteer at one : )

[mysaige001]

@kmarzfg i just might do that :)

[grettagrids]

@mysaige001 not as much fun as you think.. I can tell you that.

[mysaige001]

@grettagrids well i guess i will just have to see.

[mysaige001]

@grettagrids well i guess i will just have to see.

[grettagrids]

@mysaige001 ever thought of trying to volunteer in one? that way you can still see what it's like without being comitted. I believe the one in chattahoochee, FL gives tours and is still operating.

[mysaige001]

@grettagrids mo ive never thought of that

[KeraAlanaTidwell]

@mysaige001 trust e i lived in milledgeville and its hunted!!!!!! and people literaly have been killed because of it and thats why they have warning signs and all

[faerieface]

Freaking Fabulous...love your use of Explosions in the Sky! This video is a new fave...very awesome. I hope I can visit this location some day...

Ive been in there about eight times. both in the Greene Building and the Jones building. the jones building has a door on the left side of the building with a missing glass and board and anyone can climb right through. and the greene building has a window in the center back on the right of the shipping area that has a broken portion on the top and you can easily climb in through there and run towards your right as soon as you jump in to open the side rear door.

[Dragonflykisses88]

Excellent work, this is wonderfully artistic and you captured the essence of CSH.

[UrbanExplorerMilbyy]

@Dragonflykisses88 Thank you very much, I appreciate it! :]

[MissGabbieGrotesque]

Does anybody know a way?

[UrbanExplorerMilbyy]

@MissGabbieGrotesque We've gone to heck and back trying to find a way in, there's really not a way unless you want to break in or anything like that. Cops can get ya then, though.

[MissGabbieGrotesque]

@UrbanExplorerMilbyy Eh. Dang. I'm not sure if I wanna get into it with cops lol. I was hoping there would be an open door or perhaps a window,but I guess not. :/ Thanks.

[MissGabbieGrotesque]

I wish I knew how to sneak in there. Just the feeling you get when your inside a building like this is like no other. <3

[UrbanExplorerMilbyy]

@MissGabbieGrotesque I know what you totally mean.

[bluescrowu]

I Love These photographs! The music is good also; reflective and a little dark-edgy and in respect for those who went before.. I shot a lot of black & White Medium format film This past Feb. It's an atrocity the way the State is letting these Gorgeous historic buildings ROT until the Slack ass State decides it's time to condemn them & push them over like they did the Native American Indian Mounds which preceded these buildings. Such is the way of Georgia Preservation. bluescrowu@gmail.com Trent

[UrbanExplorerMilbyy]

@bluescrowu Thanks a ton! Great band, I agree, have all of their work, Explosions in the Sky. That sounds pretty cool though, got a link?

[dbswells]

ive always wanted to see the inside but the CS police barley even let you walk around outside on the grounds

[UrbanExplorerMilbyy]

@dbswells One day I would LOVE to see inside, and thankfully we were given access to walk around on the grounds. :] I am very grateful!
