How right you are, Phillipa!!!! I was dreading it, having been committed, but my third inpt experience changed my life for the positive. One, I got the idea of Tegretol to help control anxiety (since benzos are out for me) and to act as a mood stabilizer....the pdoc I had inpt said that more and more pdocs are looking at pts like me who alternate between depression and anxiety with a feeling of a switch going off in their brain as being on the bipolar spectrum. Which I've always wondered about. Too bad, though, I don't get a switch to hypomania. Hypomania is delightful :)
And two, I met a girl my exact same age who had so much in common with me it is almost eerie. We are now good friends.
So going inpt CAN be a very positive thing!!! :)
KatIve got a really bad disease
Its got me begging on my hands and knees
So take me to emergency
Cause somethin seems to be missing
Somebody take the pain away
Its like an ulcer bleeding in my brain
