Long-term admissions are more "home-like" in that you're not on a hospital unit. Generally, since people are there voluntarily, it's a more supportive atmosphere and slightly more relaxed.
I'm pretty sure you wouldn't be able to self-harm anywhere you went. They'd see as an issue of safety.
I'm also waiting to get into a long-term program :). My minimum stay will be 6 months, I'm really nervous...but excited too!
