I would feel ashamed if I was hospitalized now, and my daughter came to see me there. How would I explain it to her? How would she explain it to her boyfriend? About her own father being admitted to a psych unit? I hope IP will never happen again. It has been over thirty years since my last admission. Maybe I just should not tell her about it if this happens to me again. So restating this, I am not ashamed about my last IP stay, but I will be if it happened to me again.
