Should i be hospitalized?

Sorry for my english,it’s not my mother language.Feeling up and down during a day,but i don’t have hallucinations or strange beliefs.Only thing that is matter is that i don’t have friends an poor conversation with my brother who lives with me and distant father.My mother past away 3 years ago and now i don’t have anyone to watch over me.I’ve diagnosed paranoid schizophrenia,but i think that it’s little strong diagnose.I can communicate with people,and got my own private life,where i live in solitude,away from the rest of the world.There is a hospital which alowes free weekends,and and is opened type,so in two weeks i must decide wheter i should go or not.I’m waiting your opinion.Alexandar.

are you on meds for your schizophrenia?? sounds like you are doing o k and don’t need the hospital.

Currently on olanzapine 2x5mg

You are isolated which is not good for anyone. What does "free weekends "mean?

Means you go home saturday and sunday

You mean you live in the hospital and they let you out on weekends?

The thing is that i am changing hospital,which is very restrictive to the patients to another that is better and they have to check my condition during first interview.It’s up to them whetter day decide that i need admision,but unlike the firdt admision is volontary.I just have to decide wheter i spend some time there

What do you think the benefits of being at the new hospital would be for you?

It seems like you might have more people to socialize with - would that be something you might enjoy?

Would they give you psychotherapy at the hospital - which you might not get at home now? Is that a benefit you would get?

What do your family members think - your brother and father, do they think you would benefit from the hospital?

I had a terrible week of deep suffering so i called my father to help.Since i was in hospital last year and did not want to go there place again,we agreed that best choice is to go somewhere where i would treated more thoroughly,because last time i did not have attention at all from the doctors.So he went and was told to come with me in two weeks.Now i feel much better and don’t want to waste their time.Yes,i do crave for social contact,and would like to meet new people,and maybe get some psihological therapy.
