I think if you feel out of control and really feel the need to be monintored/assessed, go ahead and go into the hospital.I battled with that decision for weeks and weeks and finally went last week and spent 4 days being "stabilized."
My pdoc was trying to decide if I was either Bipolar 2 (more because of family history and recent behavior) or experiencing akathasia from the medication.
He concluded it was just akathasia but since I am still having the same symptoms, I am beginning to really think I have bipolar 2.
I don't have the good euphoric "manic" moments like my father has, but mine are more dysphoric; I get agitated, restless, anxiety out the ying yang. My mind races, I feel super tired and depressed and at the same time on edge and keyed up.
It's so weird.
I hope you find some answers soon.
