I was speaking with my husband's therapist and due to the situation with him everyone is trying to tip-toe around HIPAA so I am getting some answers but nothing direct. Well, I was telling her everything that went on and her and I know each other I used to see her before my husband did... when I told her about my pursuit of guardianship and getting my husband in the hospital she said that she felt I was getting in over my head and that when my husband's records are subpoenaed for court that there are things that "will not look favourable for you" and then she said she feels I could take care of my husband and she would write a letter stating so but that comment worries me. I explained I love my husband and I am doing this to help him like he asked of me and she said there is no place for love in mental illness and that she thinks I might be more heart broken with the end result.
Then she said I was taking my husband's rights away and as someone who's talking with NAMI that I should know it's not about that! I don't feel like I am taking his rights away, I want him to get to a place where he can understand his rights and make decisions about that and his life in a rational state of mind. Am I wrong?
