Discharged from Inpatient
I was released yesterday from the Psych Ward. Spent a total of a week on "inside". This place is just a place to triage those that are sick so very little help was offered. I did three ECT sessions while I there. The doc didn't adjust the meds at all and I will bring that up next time I talk with him which would be sometime next week if I am lucky. I don't want to self-harm anymore or at least a great deal less. I will see my TDoc twice next week and we have a lot to talk about. She was nice enough to talk with me for about 30 min while I was inside the hospital. It was nice. No adjustment on the drugs. will work on that next time with the walrus. So this marks my 5th time inside. I wish'd for more.

I’m sorry they didn’t adjust your meds but I am glad you are having less self harm thoughts. Xoxoxo kisses
Here's to working it out, making it work for you, proud of you for taking the time out to find what you could.
You have a plan of action.
Hurrah for the thoughts turning into a different direction.
Glad you went and it sounds like you need to talk with your doctor more about your meds. Glad your talking about not self harming anymore. That's a step in the right direction. I'm sure your glad to be back home. But at least you went and did have the ECT's. Hugs and blessings. Italianmomma4ever
Glad you are out, I wish you peace
It’s always nice to be sleeping in your own bed once you get out of those places - at least for me. I learned IOP was best for me - the structure of it.
Wishing you well. Has your therapist given any helpful suggestions regarding self harm? Sending peace.
Good to have you back a Thor. Sorry you didn’t get the service you planned on, but You sound better than when you went in. I hope you can work with your Pdoc in changing your meds so the offer better support.
Big hug sweetie..... To tell you the truth I think that it was a huge 'win' that you don't want to self harm...... I am so glad that you did what you needed to Thor...... Another big hug... It's nice to see you back.....xo
A round of applause Thor glad you went in. I too will second the motion that stopping the will to self-harm is an enormous win. I'm hoping that stays with you amidst the medication ups and downs...
Sendng my best to you Thor....glad to read the feeling to sh has been been reduced! I do hope between pdoc/tdoc you will find a good balance as you move forward!
