Just met with my team nurse. Not good....

Published

I'm sorry. I just really need to vent. I just can't stand meeting with her. It's so frustrating. I'm at the point where it's answer her questions as quickly with as little information as possible so I can get out of there ASAP. Like she quizzed me today on why I quit looking for a job. Well gee....do you think two month long hospitalizations back to back had something to do with it?!?

I just...the mental health center I go to is just so "nurse heavy" as well. Monthly meetings with the team nurse, you meet with a nurse before seeing the psychiatrist, and you have to meet with another nurse after every hospitalization. So verrry frustrating. Okay. I'm done.

Sorry you feel this way. Perhaps if you could tell these people how they could make the meetings more helpful to you, you might not feel so put out.

Sorry for your bad experiences. How is life going in general, Jonathan? You said you were in the hospital recently?

Honestly, it's been a few months since my last hospital stay. Mood has been really flat, finding it hard just to get out of bed, and really glad I made it through the holidays without incident. My therapist is working with me in trying to get a home health aide as it's gotten increasingly harder to keep on top of cleaning my apartment. We will try it and if no luck, then we'll look into a group home. I haven't had any ECT Treatments lately. Just been relying on meds galore. Sigh.
