well, welcome back and glad your around.
sorry bout your sister being that way though.and ya, getting good MH treatment seems to be last on a long list of needs by the ins. companies. it s@cks. but i'm glad to hear you have the patience to hang in there to get it, it will be worth it.
try not to feel like an invalid, take this time and use it in your best interest. this is time to focus on your health and when/if your ready THEN you can focus on getting a job. but right now it would probably be just one more major stressor you don't need.
AND your are SO right about that having other consequences, i've been in a county facility before and i swear it was as if i went to prison. it was HORRIBLE, the place (dirty), the people (staff), the lack of treatment, EVERYTHING was bad.
now the hospital was a different story it wasn't so bad, it was actually helpful. so i guess it depends where you would end up if you did think you were a threat to yourself, i would hope you could go to the hospital to get help.but good to hear you are doing your best to take care of yourself.
-have some hot chocolate and watch an old movie this weekend!b2c.
