The time has come - VA inpatient psych evaluation

[Glo809]

_Reporting to the VA in the morning for a psyc evual, the time frame is 3 days inpatient.

I don't like me roaming around in my brain, now there are going to be strangers snooping around in there.

My luck they will hang on to me for a week.
Will post when I get sprung.

I hope it helps and you'll feel safer when you get out. Are you still there, it's Sunday here. ?

3 days my ass, it was 10
The Dayton hospital is older but clean and the staff orderly and polite and willing to grant request when allowed.

Spent a lot of time with the social worker, hours and hours with the psyc depth. And MD.

Finally got the meds in balance the ticks are much better the nights are not as bad.

This what it was like when released.
Pt 2 coming up.

Pt 2
Upon release some vitamins were added and 3 out 5 meds for ptsd isseud by my up were continued and 2 more added.

1st VA visit spent 2 plus hours with case coordinator and have settled on a course of action

Next visit is on the 15th with psychology and Med review.

Further appointments will be every Monday.

My status since discharge, declining, my fuse is shorter than ever, the Mrs came into my room while I was sleeping accused me of planning on leaving her.

I said no I wasn't. Last night I. Washed the dog and followed her rules for doing this.

After towel drying the dog I. Went to clean the shower and she was doing it, I told her I would do it, she said I wouldn't do it right....

Fuse lit BANG! Now I'm pissed again! I sit in the living room barely controlling myself. At 7 pm I took my meds and went to bed.

This morning hardly a peep between us and I'm .
twichy as hell, meaning I barely have my anger under control.

Part 2a
Forgot to mention after she went to bed I went back down stairs and watched TV and thought about everything.

Then I do what I always do. I scrape the pruning saw across my chest, the pain breaks the anger cycle.

Washed the dog and followed her rules for doing this.

I told her I would do it, she said I wouldn't do it right...

This might just be me, so take it with a grain of salt. And, maybe my warped view of things is the reason I have an EX-husband.

If I was in a relationship where there were "rules" about how to wash the dog, that MIGHT be a problem. If I was in a relationship where my significant other made cracks about me "not doing something right", that also MIGHT be a problem. It wouldn't be a problem if they realized that they were being over the top picky and controlling and we both agreed it was less stressful for both of is if they just did things the way they wanted them done and let it go. If they went with the idea that they were arbitrarily right and were entitled to pressure me into their view of the universe? THAT would be a problem. How do you guys decide who gets to make the rules?

I'm not suggesting you don't have a problem with anger. I do want to toss out the idea that there might be legitimate reasons for feeling angry. I could be wrong! It wouldn't hurt to run some of this stuff by an objective person who knows what's going on.

She has OCD for decades

When we were new to each other we worked around this.... 10 plus years has stiffened both of us in our ways
