Sometimes I am baffled by the idea of inpatient treatment for more than acute care (you are a danger now, and need to be watched).. T came back to if you keep coming back to the place of suicidal thoughts, then maybe its time for "higher care." The place he would send me to, has an average stay of about 8-10 days.. So, what are they going to do for me in less than two weeks that my T hasn't done for me in the last three years? and I am even more baffled that I am actually thinking about doing it..

8-10 days seems like acute care to me. That is my standard hospital stay for when I go in suicidal and need medication stabilization. That isn't to say it isn't helpful. When I am that depressed, being inpatient where my pdoc can see me daily and make quicker and more aggressive medication adjustments is very helpful, and I do always come out in better shape than when I went in. He can't make those kinds of adjustments outpatient; the need to be under observation for the problems that can occur with that kind of aggressive med change is important, both for problems with side effects and the mental changes during that kind of adjustment that can be an offshoot. Sometimes waiting weeks and months to make slow medication changes is just not an option; the changes need to happen much faster due to the severity of my symptoms.

I am watching Camelot on TMC.
Where are the simple joys of maidenhood? My favorite line is "shall kith not kill their kin for me"

![]() I can relate a little to some of this, though I have never "felt" feminine, nor masculine neither. I have no frame of reference for that and I don't know what that might feel like. Clothes don't make me feel anything special - there are clothes I feel seriously uncomfortable and wrong in, such as any form of skirt or dress or anything that reveals too much skin, but I can't say that I feel good in any particular clothing. As far as I am concerned, clothes have two purposes: to cover one's body for modesty and warmth, and to print statements on. (I also have never used makeup, nor have I ever shaved any parts of my body other than my face.) I like the X/Y axis idea on principle, even though I don't think there are any values that are more masculine or feminine. As far as I understand, being a caregiver is mostly about being given the opportunity and financial incentive, and to a lesser degree about personality. When there is financial incentive for either parent to be home with a child, men and women tend to divide the days fairly equally (there is a lot of variation between individual couples, of course.) Add sexuality into the mix, and I'm completely lost at sea - but that's really much too personal to be discussed in public (or at all!) Last edited by Anonymous200320; Mar 28, 2015 at 07:08 AM.

For those interested, KITH is a very old word for a cohesive group of people. Often used with KIN, as in 'my kith and kin all do ...', or 'I am most comfortable surrounded by my kith and kin.' Generally it meant people having the same culture and values, living in generally the same area. Probably more of an explanation than anyone wanted.

In case anyone is wondering, I do spend time one on one with her sister, my other niece, as well. We take turns having one on one time.

MKAC, you're a pretty rad aunt.
![]() Mast, thanks for the thoughtful reply! I'll stop back in this afternoon to respond. You've given me a new perspective from which to view all this. |

Me too! I'm supposed to be taking phone calls for my boss again today. We'll see. So far the phone is silent.

Lol, last week she 'lost' my number. Except it was still right there on her clipboard ![]() She did connect me today, and the phone has rung a few times but she or the other woman taking calls have gotten it before me each time. It seems there really aren't enough calls to justify having three people taking them. Phone's only rung four times in two hours.

I bought a book. I started reading it. I don't think I can finish it for a while. It hurts to read it and I just want to cry and cry (it's a nonfiction book and there's discussion of parents who harm their children to the point of death through medical neglect).
I just. I can't. I'm sad because I really like this author but all I want to do is curl up with my boys.

I still have goo coming out of my head. Seriously - I am not sure how it all fits in there.

I am coughing up stuff and blowing out stuff.
But it is not coming out of my ears or oozing from my pores.
