I am Bi-polar with paranoia and had a psychosis breakdown august 17,2007. Worst day of mine,AJ, and my parents lives !! I was horribly mistreated by the staff when family wasn't around so horrifically I walked away with PTSD from it. I completely related to P when he said the staff was rude. So many of them patronize you. They can also antagonize your paranoia. I didn't start to gain some headway until after my suicide attempt in nov of that year when I went to rehab with an all women's wing. Wasn't great but it was a start in the right direction. I really didn't gain headway until I moved to South Carolina I found in amazing psychiatrist and psychologist. But I still had a toxic work environment and was an alcoholic. Next step was AA best brother and sisterhood in the world !! March 3rd I'll be 3 years sober. That's why I call Rock Hill my healing place. I've been pretty good for awhile but am dealing with a bad setback right now since my beloved psychiatrist closed up his practice and went back to the mental hospital, I guess they are more fun than us on the outside.... So between that and missing a component in my meds that have my hormones out of wack on top of major compounding stresses I've been a very dark place lately. Finally went to break in a new psych yesterday and there was a note on her door canceling my appointment. Nice but I did go see my therapist for the first time since 2011 and we made headway today. I hope and pray this out patient program gives P the start towards a better journey. I know all about the agonizing demons and pray he can conquer them. I've learned it's no one thing, there are definitely several needed components to help in your healing and maintaining health. I'm still a major work in progress but just wanted to tell you I pray you can stay strong and hopeful. Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03693121508367100135noreply@blogger.com
