Hey. I'm back! So, while I've been offline, a lot of really bad things have happened. I was previously in a youth shelter when my parents kicked me out. Then I was at home. I was dealing with being around drug abuse, while being abused physically and mentally. It all just became WAY too much... and I overdosed. I just stopped caring. I've been in Doernbechers childrens hospital in Portland, OR for almost a week now. Psych, the doctors and my social worker have told me that I'm going to be discharged tomorrow to go home and I was going to go back to the youth shelter that I was at previously. And my probation officer had told me that she was just fine with me doing that.
BUT... my mom called me today and told me that I'm not going to be allowed to leave the hospital until the doctors can find me a bed at a residential treatment center. And that my probation officer told my parents that I'm not going to be where I want to be (The youth shelter), and that she won't approve it.
WHAT IS GOING ON??? Why would my doctor lie to me? Why would psych and my probation officer lie to me??? I dont want to leave my school, and the huge support system that I now have in my community. Why would they put me somewhere that ill be miserable?? Someone please help! Ive never been so stressed. Im panicking right now, so im not even sure if this is in the right category. I just need some help. Please???

Calm down, i wouldn't want you to panic. I don't think they lied, I just think they were misinformed. Also I'm sorry what happened, and that your parents kicked you out. Their intention is to take care of you and they felt that was the most appropriate thing to do. How do you know that you're going to be miserable? Can you talk to the social worker tomorrow?

I know that i'm going to be miserable because ill be taken away from my support system, and ill lose being able to graduate high school on time. They want to send me to drug treatment when I dont have a problem with drugs anymore. And my social worker comes and talks to me every day, but she told me that she cant help me very much in this situation.
