I spoke with the on call doctor this morning and he wants me to go into the hospital for an evaluation. He did seem to think they would admit me especially since I had a dissociative episode last night and woke up with 34 cuts on my arms. I am going to go in tomorrow AM since I want to bring my kids with us to the hospital so tomorrow my one son will be in school and the other daycare.
I really hate the fact that I have to do this. The last time I was in the hospital for 7 days and it was really rough, especially since I had a 5 month old baby.
I know this is what I need to do and I am trying to remind myself of that.

Thank you for all your helpful comments, I really appreciate it!

I'm glad you talked to the doctor; hopefully the hospital stay will be a short one. Please give us an update when you get back!

I hope it is a short stay. I just got out about three weeks ago. I am a different woman. I got a good med change this time. I am thinking of you.

Glad you got in touch with a doctor! Maybe a couple days in the hospital can get you back on track again.

I agree - learn to accept the hospital stay and allow yourself the time to get better.
