I think it may be time for me to go back inpatient. Maybe not hospital level but at least respite. I've lost a significant amount of weight, I have ideations, lethargy, insomnia, I basically am not functioning.

I have a 4 year old. My husband chooses not to drive (grr). Possibly my father in law could help us out but he helps a lot and I don't want to ask. He's really the only one that could help.

I'm really in a bind here.

That definitely makes things tough for you. Will going inpatient solve anything? I mean is you are in serious danger of suicide you should for sure go, but if not what would the purpose be? For how long? I know sometimes I would like to go for a month just as an escape.

I do need my meds evaluated, and I am very med sensitive /allergic, I seem to get the weird side effects when starting new meds. I don't want to do the hospital, just respite. There is one here that has a doc on staff. I'm not sleeping and I am afraid that my ideations will turn into something more, as has happened in the past. I am aware of my early warning signs and they are pointing to danger ahead.
