Hi Bpenniman,

I understand your concerns, but considering that you've actually wandered away from home and interacted with others in ways you don't remember that resulted in police intervention, I strongly urge you to follow through with your doctor's recommendation and go stay at the facility, where you will have the best chance of getting the treatment you need and deserve. I know your boyfriend would rather you not go, but in the long run, if the result is better mental health and an increased quality of life, surely a person who loves you would want what is best for you. Maybe you could discuss it with him in these ways. Yes, going will be difficult for you both, but ultimately, it could improve things greatly for both of you in the long run.
