just go out of the hospital..I got mad and signed myself out. they wouldn't give me my clothes, or let me shower. I keep having these spells of not knowing what time of day it is. I really need to talk to someone. I think somtone might be up somewhere but I'm not sure. and my hubby went to work. he needs to comes home. I can't be here alone. it's tooo hard. THe cat doesn't understand. hubby keps trying to take me to the movies and the bathrooms are a big trigger. I guess I can't wrok there like I'd hoped.

I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling so bad. Can you call your doc or a crisis line? Please take care of yourself.

I am also sorry you're feeling so badly. I hope things turn around soon and agree about maybe calling a crisis line for someone to talk to, or maybe your pdoc. Keep reaching out here, too.

I'm sorry your hospital stay ended so abruptly and not on good terms.

I think Tommy is right, you might try your doc or a crisis line.

Hugs

got some more sleep. my pdoc called me because he's heard that I been in the hospital. he also discovered while I was away that my lithium level was too low. so I gotta start taking more of that. that's all that's gonna happen right now.

Lithium is small and cheap - but I hope it helps you, as much as it helped me!!!! (((BIG HUG))))

Hang on, keep venting - we're here for you!!!!

Do you have some Xanax that you can take and help you take a nap. Usually naps help me a lot.

Sorry things are going so bad right now. I would call a doctor as soon as possible it sounds like you need a med adjustment or change.

beggarseam 06/04/2012

I don't take xanax anymore. I went to a hospital one time where they refused to give any of the patients any of that kind of stuff. I almost died. so I'm kind of scared of that particular med now.

I did go to walk to one of my favorite caf'e today though. one...to get out of the house....and two..I thought if I drank enough pepsi it might tip my blood sugar racing so low that I could at least take a nap.(I'm hypoglycemic) it worked. I slept for 3 hours once I got home.(although I probably looked drunk walking home)

so now that I'm up I think I can handle somthing...I think.

Well I'm glad you are up to something but that does not sound very healthy.

I would urge you to call a doctor. You don't need to go to a hospital but you should have a med adjustment of some kind if you are having this much difficulty. Plus I'm worried about your health over all not just mental. Perhaps your hypoglycemia is effecting your mood as well?

I know that some psych meds can effect your blood sugar levels but you really should be on something to help with the depression.

Good luck I hope you feel well tomorrow. Try to take it easy for now.
