Fly away!
Went to psychiatrist appointment today and I was very firm. Last time difficult child did not want to talk, this time I did all the talking - although, she didn't seem interested in talking anyway. I was firm with psychiatrist about what is going on and shared pretty much exactly what I shared in the other post. Think she got it.
While they were dealing with insurance, I asked to speak to psychiatrist privately because I wanted to tell her about difficult child's journals (of which, I'm not supposed to know the contents). Turns out it was great timing because they were having trouble getting insurance approval, but once psychiatrist heard that difficult child wishes we were all dead, she was in.
Almost had to have security come to take difficult child out of psychiatrist's office. This was against her will. In the state of Ohio, the parent has full consent. Thank God.
So, I've ruined her life and she hates me...but that's not really any different than any other day. It seems like a really nice place and were already working on accommodating her diet (vegan).
I have to go back later to take her stuff. This is short term, crisis stay. The other services I listed on the other thread that their website said they offered, were discontinued a few months ago. So, we are still on the hunt for an Residential Treatment Center (RTC).
I have to say, in this state at least, medicaid gets you way better mental health care than traditional insurance. Primary insurance refused.
