[QUOTE="louissa, post: 18491, member: 3456"] The social worker called from the hospital at 10am to say they were discharging difficult child, we said we'd be there before 12 and then 5 minutes later she calls back to say they changed their mind and the psychiatrist is calling the insurance company to try and get her stay extended to Monday but they don't know if they will so we still might have to take her home today. We're sitting here waiting for the call and our difficult child calls us, she says they told her they were going to discharge her and then said maybe not and she doesn't feel ready to come home, that she still feels after the family meeting yesterday that she could harm herself or her sister because she doesn't feel she can control her rage if she comes home. She says she's feeling no different on the zoloft, I explained it can take time, but she's saying she has not told them all of what she is telling me, because she finds me easy to talk to and that everyone at the hospital always seems busy and unavailable and she has trouble understanding the psychiatrist as he's Egyptian and has an accent. I don't understand why they are not talking to her properly, why they are not hearing and seeing how she's feeling. She says she's good at hiding her feelings, but aren't they trained to know this kind of thing and work around it so she will open up to them with her concerns? [/QUOTE]
