I'm Going Inpatient

I am going inpatient for about 10 days starting tomorrow afternoon.   I am going in for PTSD, Depression, and self-harm.  I will undergo extensive ECT while I am in (M-W-F).  My PDoc will see me daily and plans to redo my drugs to find a better combination.  My TDoc will call during the week.   I will ask my wife to come down and see me once as the traffic is really bad for the visiting hours.  I have alerted my job that I will be gone and I have gotten a lot of support from them.  I plan on trying to break down and understand my PTSD and try and control my emotions over it.

Thanks for all of the well wishes. I am going in to hopefully stop self-harming. I;ve inflicted some serious burns on my skin, and I can receive intensive ECT while (every other day). I am going specifically to my ECT hospital so that can happen. Also I can get my drugs adjust quickly, I am taking 11 drugs right now. lastly, I will consult with my doctor each day that I am inside. He has duty this weekend at the hospital so I will he will be there this weekend.

I am proud of you. I am so praying that they will get a grip on the meds.
That is so good that work is being supportive.
I hope you really embrace this chance to be open to learn to start healing
To be grounded in the truth to at least observe and recognize the shame gremlins
And the false guilt
I am pulling for you I believe in you. I am here

One of the best gifts you're giving your well-being is to take this challenge and put it together as eloquently as you have. The more you express and write it out, the easier it will be to reach the point on the tip of the top to help you release some of those more hidden '...' and verbally expel it in a safe place.

Excellent support and you're willing, wanting, and working to get this to you being you again.

We are all pulling for you!
