ok I admit myself to shoal creek hospital for depression. The shrink meets me the next day and diagnoses me as bi-polar and prescribes the meds. I take the meds the way told to do so and leave the hospital a week later. I keep taking the meds like they said.
2 days after release I start feeling sick. 4 days after release I vomit 27 times and stop taking the meds they gave. That night I have a 3 hour psychotic/scary as toejam physical/mental reaction. The next morning I go to the emergency room. The doctor was suprised when I told them what they had given me and the amount. Now here I am a week after release 5 days after taking any of the meds and my hands are still shaking, there is deminished though ability i've missed 2 days of work because of it this week and may actually get laid off. and The psychotic reactions still happen just not as bad as they were monday night.
Tuesday after returning from the emergency room I call the shrink they "assigned" me. He's in session, I tell the secretary that it's an emergency that I'm having a BAD reaction to the drugs and please have him call, then gave her my number. Still waiting for the call 4 days later. The day after that the therapist they "assigned" me calls to break her appointment with me. Now I have to take xanax to feel normal.....
The shrink in the hospital never saw me for more than 20-30 min and usually only about 15 min. Is that enough to diagnose bi-polar? If in a week/month I still am diddlyed up in the head do I have a case?
[edit]
basicly I went in depressed and came out 60% insane.....
