I called and left a message for my pdoc last night (so received by her secretary this morning) about what is happening this week. She's been off and is undoubtedly catching up and probably has to consult with the hospital drs. But I didn't hear anything and now I feel like I'm going to wait forever and nothing will happen. I know that's not what she is going to let happen but I really hoped that today I would know. I don't want to find out that I have 12 hours to get ready. I'm laying stuff out and trying to get things ready to go so that in theory that shouldn't be so bad but I just would like to know what is going on so I know how much I need to push to be ready or if this isn't happening until next week or what.
I know she'll get back to me when she knows something. I just hoped to have some of the anxiety taken away. I don't even know if this is an ER thing that I can do at any point (aside from not sure how I'd get admitted through ER since I'm not dangerously suicidal, just the same level I've been for months) or a direct admit. I know nothing. And I don't trust what I thought I knew a few weeks ago.

Maybe with extra therapy you won't need to enter hospital. I once had a therapist who
I saw every day and also allowed me to call. Plus pdoc once per week. Sometimes when it's up to you and your ins company they'd approve this. I also once upon being released from hospital had a nurse visit me for 4 hrs every other day and friends looking in on me. There are options. Also in person support groups help me. What you decide - good karma luck and happiness sent your way! Maxy

Yes, the IP is because I have to come off an extremely high dose of Seroquel quickly and start clozaril and to do that I need to be in the hospital. This is one there is no getting around it hospitalization. That's why I'm so nervous; I know and agreed to deal with several days of feeling really horrible and I just want them over with.
