I pick up my daughter today in 3 hours

I was supposed to pick her up already but she got triggered this morning in support group and needs them to help her calm down. I’m concerned because she’s going from inpatient to just 1 one hour session with a therapist per week. I don’t think she’s ready for that.

Hopefully with your help she’ll be able to do it. If not, maybe her therapist and yourself can convince her that outpatient is needed. Going 9-5 is a good compromise as she at least wouldnt be inpatient. My husband once described it as my job. That i was going there to do my job, learn coping skills and how to live a better life, etc, and that i shouldnt look negatively on it for that reason. For the time i spent there, it helped to think that way.

I hope your daughter gets to feeling better. Being inpatient can be a little scary sometimes.

Well, I’m with her now. She cried the whole way home. But we stopped to get boba tea so we’re doing that now
