Anyone know what options there are for people being put on inpatient waiting lists? I’ve called the 2 out of 3 this weekend and they still don’t have anything. The other one isn’t open until tomorrow, and i’m not relying on it, I need a backup plan. I’m already having thoughts of why i don’t even need to go and its not an option for me. I NEED INPATIENT. I can’t wait ANOTHER WEEk, MAYBE 2-3. Who knows.
Find a recovery meeting nearby and go to it. Do it like your life depends on it, because it probably does. You'll meet lots of people just like you.
If you can’t go to places further that may have availability, you could go to the hospital and get admitted to psych for the meantime.. I’m sure that is not ideal- I would not want to do that either
If you feel it’s “life or death” though think of it in that way.. I have never done it but I’m very knowledgeable about it from my mom and brother.. If it’s something you’d consider doing, when you go to the hospital you explain your situation and most likely they will give you the option the self-admit and at least you’ll be in a “safe place” in the meantime.
