It was on the table for me until we realized where the IOP was located (far end of 2 cities away from home, in the winter) but everyone agreed I needed the regular one. Not an option for me because of lack of places to go (the only one won't let me see my own dr. or therapist, is mainly there as a stop-gap to prevent hospitalization and babysit the suicidal, the psychiatrist is someone I've had a bad experience with and don't trust) and it is't the educational program I'd hoped for. I still wish I'd had IOP last year; I think that it might have made it easier when I got even worse as I adjusted to my new life.<br /><br />Out of curiousity, have you tried Latuda? My NAMI group has several people who LOVE it. I was on it last year when it was fairly newly out and it did nothing. Just curious what you've thought.<br /><br />I'm sorry you've had to come back to the hospital/IOP/etc. world and I hope you leave it very soon. You are my source of hope. Not for OT, my personality makes OT something I cannot do and take care of myself and my license is going to go into the first stage of lapsing in June, but I do think I can do something someday and partly that's because you did.<br /><br />Just MeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21050713.post-12108594857386247992012-10-29T09:20:02.925-04:002012-10-29T09:20:02.925-04:00I think it does take time to process being in the ...I think it does take time to process being in the hospital, and that it is a trauma, even when it is a good place. You have to give up so much control while you are in there. I have just made 6 and a half weeks out. What has helped me was a 6-week DBT-based IOP program. I am now a DBT convert.
