My therapist knows my determination to stay out of the hospital, so when I'm not feeling well we have other arrangements in place. Daily therapy sessions, calls if I need them. Minimal notification to my husband. It would help *a lot* if I felt free to ask my husband to keep my meds for me in those circumstances, but that just makes life worse for me.
I think unless my therapist thinks my condition is harmful to my son, and I make sure that it isn't so that isn't a concern, he'll work with me to keep me out of the hospital. And daily therapy is cheaper than the hospital too.
Mind you, I'm committed to helping him with that by keeping myself safe and calling him if I'm not.
