471949 tn?1236904026 Hello, I'm new here. I have severe PTSD from military sexual trauma (I'm a veteran) and chronic depression. I'm currently being seen at a VA facility and enrolled in this new treatment for PTSD...but it's not going well. I'm extremely depressed...it's really bad. I've had bad experiences with being in-patient at VA hospitals as they are very scary especially for female vets.

My favorite place. All 8 months pregnant and on my hands and knees. Then I napped till my boys got home from school. I woke up from said nap in a horrible mood!! Im blaming being preggo on this one. Just uncomfortable and pissy. I'm almost 34 weeks and just want my body back! I'm HUGE! Not sure how to proceed next...

Sometimes people are severely underweight are pushed to go to treatment because they or someone who loves them are seriously concerned about their health.

SAMHSA also operates a helpline: (800) 662-HELP (4357) with help in English and Spanish, or TDD at (800) 487-4889. I’m clean, is it over?

Avatar n tn How can we help him overcome depression and get him on the road to rehab? We asked yesterday for depression treatment and they said they putting in an order for that. He does seem to like it when we read the paper/current events to him. Any advice will be sincerely appreciated.
788618 tn?1238973494 If its an issue of substance abuse that has to be addressed first. That can easily set back your recovery. You should go to a dual recovery group for a person with substance abuse and depression. As well you can speak to your psychiatrist about your primary treatment. Google "Depression Central" for more information. But if you were feeling okay and had a relapse then its more the substance abuse issue although there might be more going on.
Avatar m tn So I'm a 17 yr old girl living in NY with severe depression and anxiety. I'm also super new to this website. Has anyone on here been to any Inpatient hospital programs in NY or any relatively close states (ie: CT, NJ, PA, etc) that they'd recommend? Because I have a limited amount of time before my shrink and my parents are going to make me chose a place to go. Extra Details: I'm not particular about location.
Avatar n tn I can afford to pay a reasonable amount of $. Places that I have inquired about are 10 to 15,000 a month. A State run facility is 4,000 a month. He says he can do it on his own, and wants to go to a psychiatrist to get help with his depression and have someone to talk with. What I have read about Crack leads me to believe he needs a residential treatment program. But he doesn't want that. Is it possible to get off Crack by oneself? We live in central Florida.

Avatar f tn Does anyone know of a good (effective) detox/rehab facility in Tampa Bay/St. Pete area? Son prefers non-residential but has rather large addiction to roxicodone /oxycontin. This is all so confusing and depressing. . seems so many people are trying to make big bucks at desperate people's expense (and I don't mean just dealers!) No one is really giving me much hope of permanent freedom from this drug for him, either.
Avatar n tn I get no answers concerning treatment for portal venous hypertension or treatment for whatever causes watermelon stomach, GAVE disease. What medical facility in the Florida Alabama area specializes in this? One facility recommended was in Minnesota which would require air travel and I'm major claustrophobic--any other facilities in the southeast? Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Avatar n tn The woman I spoke to at this center said the doctors own the facility and that they have been working in this area for 20 + years. None of this means a thing to me. The question then is how do you go about deciding on where to have the treatment performed? I'm in Columbus Ohio.
Avatar n tn There are many, many people who have depression but when they treatment and the right medications, they do wonderful things in life. This isn't about how your dad feels-this is about YOU! He would be dissapointed if you stay in this situation also so fix yourself and be happy. Goodluck!
1256303 tn?1291752568 am experiencing alternating mania and depression, and the side effects (most notably grogginess and extreme emotionality) are greatly interfering with work and personal life. Psychiatrist has suggested that I go to nearby psychiatric hospital "for a day or two" to help get everything stabilized. My question is: does anyone have any experiences of doing this, and how exactly does that work?
Avatar m tn Furthermore, the diet in most homes is lacking and good nutrition is part and parcel of treatment for depression. Depression is best treated by tender loving care, holding, touching, caressing and by paying attention to a person. It is difficult to find a nursing home when you are only looking for a "short stay". A far better solution is home care with daily assistance from an aide(s) who is caring and thoughtful. They exist, but are hard to find.
Avatar m tn Please consider a friend keeping your dog, or maybe using a boarding facility.
Avatar m tn The bad thing with depression and insomnia, is the meds to help you sleep can make depression worse and increase the risk of suicide.
Avatar f tn I was told by the Mayo Clinic to seek out an intensive OCD Treatment Program, preferably inpatient. Has anyone else done this and can you recommend a facility?
Avatar n tn Is your treatment facility a detox facility as well? I would not suggest suddenly stopping this medication if you have been on it for years. Detox centers gradually taper you off the drug, making it safer to detox. I would look in to your treatment facility more or talk to your doctor about tapering off the medication and have your mom hand out the tapering dose. It would be wrong of your doctor to expect you to suddenly stop this medication.
Avatar f tn His parents are in denial of anything being wrong because I think they think it coukd be depression and are stuck in the dark ages that depression is taboo. I dont think its that because other than headaches it diosent match the symptoms ive read about. But the violent thoughts are the real worry. He had an mri after the concussionsbut not a cat scan. The next headache that is severe though everyone is pretty much agreed to take him to the hospital but I dont want to wait for that.
