I've been in a mixed mood for ages. I've become a bit too suicidal lately. I've been planning for a few days. (Although I'm yet to settle on something I'm happy with).
Anyhow, I saw my psychiatrist today and she thinks I should be admitted as an inpatient. She wants to rejig my meds, have me in a hospital environment until I settle. Also my husband is having heart surgery next week and she doesn't want me home alone without 'my keeper'.

Thank you all for your kind replies. Admission time in 4 hours. Pdoc has been talking about adding Epilim (Depakote in USA?) into the mix. Hope not. I put on 12kg in 6 months last time.

Sending hope you and your husband are going to be fine.

Although IP can be a pain it’s a much needed place to be safe and get med changes.
