Hi All,
I'm in the same situation as Meg right now, as I'm looking into "intensive outpatient" programs. Although I've suffered with depression for a long time (probably since childhood, although diagnosed just 6 years ago), I've never been hospitilized for it (even after a teenage suicide attempt! Good ole mom signed me out of the hospital before the psychiatrist got there). I've been resistent to any type of such treatment programs in the past, maybe because it makes it too "real", and I just wish it would go away--even though logically I realize that's not going to happen! Anyway, if anyone has any info/suggestions/experience with inpatient/outpatient treatment programs, please write in.
Thanks!
J
