Speed I believe when you start to question whether you need to be in patient that it might be time.

I know you have had major problems with pdoc and hosp ignoring you and it is bs. You have a basic human right to that care in America. I don't know because I was away for so long if there was any resolution with the hospital. However please do not let it get to the oding point before checking into a hospital.

To answer the question I have only been hospitalized for mania and psychosis and many attempts by my pdoc when I have been manic or mixed. I have not been hospitalized for depression and I realize I am a bit opposite to alot of people but when I was depressed that was when I was least likey to reach out vs the mania, much more likey to ask for help in that state. Not that it was always in my best interests.
