Yeah, it absolutely blows... Even the "therapy" they provide at the hospital is crap. Everyone there is for a variety of reasons, so "therapy" involves some idiot social worker gabbing on about nothing, and going around the room asking people questions. They have a session on Wednesday evenings...

This is frustrating beyond belief... They won't release her, because her meds haven't stabilized. I asked if I could have the EFT therapist come in and visit with her, to help with the PTSD and they tell me that my wife wouldn't respond to it because of the state she's in. I am really starting...

I'm going to try and get her out of there this week. My mother in law has volunteered to come and stay in our house when we get her home, to watch over her and help out, and we're gonna go see an EFT therapist as soon as we can. I'm hoping I don't have too much of a problem with this.

Thanx, everyone. She had a couple more "passing out" episodes this evening (that seroquel is one strong drug...), but is resting comfortably. She took her regular dose of Lexapro just before going to bed, so I'm almost waiting for the subsequent panic attack... She has an initial therapy...

I came to this forum as I was looking for info for my wife, who was diagnosed with PTSD. She suffered from a rape almost 14 years ago, and it is only now that the trauma is beginning to assert itself. She refrained from telling her mother at the time because her mother was sick, and she didn't...
