Washing yourself will be taken care of, and your meds can finally be adjusted in controlled environment - I actually cannot believe the amount of med adjustments you've been through in the last few weeks.
Hope things look up for you soon - take it easy, stay in bed, watch TV, read a book... When you feel strong enough, encourage yourself to go for a walk in the fresh air; it'll bring you on in leaps and bounds

Your idea sounds so lovely, but someone has to take care of the kids during the day. My husband is overworked and worn out. He already does all the cooking and cleaning, etc. He leaves the house at 7 in the morning and doesn't get back home until 6:30 or 7 at night.
I have to pick up my youngest at daycare at noon. Today I got my parents to do it, but every time I ask them, I have to answer the same questions , "Are you OK? What's going on? Are you having bad thoughts?" They think it is simple for me to pinpoint how I am feeling. Half the time I have no idea. Today I tried to use the sick to my stomach excuse, but my mom pried into my emotional state.
Anyway, I have today to myself, but I am not going to be able to do that every day. I wish I could just say, "I don't feel good." and leave it at that.
I really don't want to go to the hospital again, but if things get more dangerous than they are, I will go.
By the way, after reading all the responses, and talking to my T today, I see that I am still depressed.
