[QUOTE="Big Bad Kitty, post: 310437, member: 3647"] [COLOR=Purple][SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS]Tink has been in the psychiatric hospital 2 weeks as of today. The doctor, whom I have only spoken to once and never met, has given her a diagnosis of mood disorder not otherwise specified. She is on Lithium and Seroquil. She is now more hyper and attention seeking than I have EVER seen her. My heart is breaking for her...she says the staff yells at her all the time, and while I know she can be a drama queen, it hurts me to think that she is not getting love from mommy every day. Copper went to visit her today. She waited close to an hour for them to bring Tink to the visiting room. Finally someone asked her "who are you here to see?" She told them she was there to see Tink, and their response was "oh she is upstairs crying because she thought nobody came to visit her". OMG my heart broke. THEN Copper tells me that Tink told her that whenever she is about to get a visit, she "hears voices" telling her "you're gonna get shanked and die". I am beside myself. To the best of my knowledge, she does not know what shanked means, which means either she heard someone say it once and now she thinks she is hearing it again, or someone is TELLING her that. Who tells an 8YO they are gonna get shanked? I don't know what to do. I spent 2 weeks convincing myself that I did the right thing, now all I want to do is get her out of there, I want to "save" her... [/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
