I sympathize with your frustration. Both times I've been hospitalized, when I got out, the workers who were supposed to help me transition back home mostly did nothing. And what they did do, they did wrong. I knew more about what needed to be done than they did. And in the end, I just ended up doing it all myself. It was all very frustrating.

I've given up on mental health professionals. And I feel for anyone who really has to rely on them for help. Interestingly enough, following both of my hospitalizations, the persons who were actually helpful were representatives from my health maintenance organization. When I, or my wife, contacted them things actually began to happen.
