I'm back in the hospital and I think they're going to move me to the longervterm inpatient floor. They're arguing over my diagnosis though. My inpatient psychiatrist (anxiety specialist) thinks I have chronic depression and OCD (my self-harm isn't impulsive) and my outpatient psychiatrist thinks I have chronic depression/anxious distress and bpd traits, the guy I was assessed by on Tuesday for BPD treatment thinks I have BPD. Inpatient guy thinks I need more help and to be kept safe until I'm more stable, normal psychiatrist not sure, and guy I was assessed by (BPD guy) thinks hospitalization is rewarding in BPD and they need to send me home to sink or swim.

Oh my, so sorry to hear about this. How are you feeling? I know for me the hospital is sometimes just the place I need to be, and other times I have felt like I haven't gotten any help at all.
I hope the doctors stop squabbling about a label and can see you for you and be helpful. |

Hugs to you...agreed that they need to figure out a treatment plan and not focus so much on the labels. There's lots of crossover between different diagnoses anyway, so it's not always clear-cut. They need to focus on what *you* need, not on what a random person with x diagnosis would need. Are they able to consult with your regular T and p-doc at all? Or no because it's a different hospital?

Are the psychiatrists actually listening to you or making all kinds of assumptions based on what they see and hear? If not I would tell them.

The Pdocs sound like the three blind men and the elephant. They each see a part of the whole and what they see is based on their perception biased by their specialties, hopefully they will get together and figure out a way to treat the whole you.

I'm liking OCD guy so far. He's not trying to pigeonhole me becausebofbthe cutting.
He believes me about the painful obsessiveness and wants to help Stabilize me before i'm discharged. I'm terrified of being discharged to Bpd guy and never gettimg any real help for the awful obsessiveness. He wants me to Find meds that help me. He wants to keep me until i'm Safe. It's the weekend too so I can't talk to my favorite nurse or call my pastor |
