> Had to add that you don't have to take a med they give you in the hospital. Unless you are very paranoid, dangerous, etc. And even giving meds for schizophenia a court order must be issued. Fondly, Phillipa
Yes I agree. I think I was talking in short-hand. What happens is after a while arguing with meds nurse, psychiatrist, techs., getting your head straight etc., I just start doing whatever they say just so I can go home. Thats about the only thing wrong with having good insurance coverage, instead of kicking you out when you're still in crisis, they look for reasons to hang on to you.
I need to work on staying either passive or aggressive and become assertive. Especially when it comes to working as a partner with my Psychiatrist on meds. Thanks for pointing that out, I wouldn't want to scare or misinform someone thinking they may need to go in.
