Hey so my therapist recommended a residential treatment center for me to go to this summer. I was very surprised because I don't consider myself to be very severely mentally ill. I have OCD but it's much better now because of Prozac; I consider it to be mild but she says that’s not true. Most of my OCD involves praying frequently and occasionally pulling up socks and stuff like that. I also pick at my head which I don’t think is a big deal since I am not creating scabs or anything like that. What is more severe is my social anxiety. I don’t have any friends and barely talk to people outside my family. I’m always uncomfortable around people and worried I’m going to say the wrong thing but I also find I just don’t really like other people. I think I might have some mild depression as well—I’m not really into the idea of existence (on a philosophical level) and lack a lot of motivation. I spoke to the guidance counselor at my school today and she said that instead of residential, I could just switch therapists or leave school and do a 2-week day hospital program at Johns Hopkins or at Sheppard Pratt. What do people think about day hospitals/partial hospitalization? Am I really severe enough?
