Self Admission to Mental Health Facility

3 Replies

I’m experiencing the out of body feeling and hear music as if it’s coming from a distant radio. I can never discern what is being played. I’ve been prescribed a generic form of Zoloft. I can’t seem to find the right dosage. I’ve experimented with dosages 20mg daily/twice daily, as well as 40mg daily/twice daily. The higher dosages help with anxiety and depression but have me unable to function. I’m on other medications to work with Zoloft. I’ve canceled Psychiatrist visit. I’m considering self admission to a mental health facility. I’m afraid to start visits due to their cost. I’m on DSSI without additional supplemental insurance.

There is no harm to getting the help you need. If that is what you feel is right, go for it. At least you will have a piece of mind while you can work with professionals to get you where you need to be. I wish you the best of luck!! Hang in there!

I know how terrifying this must feel especially since you have not yet found a medication routine that works. This just adds to the anxiety. Do you have a benzo to take for the short term? It can be helpful while you regulate your other medications. In patient is always a good option, it can help to stabilize you. The key is to try to let things go until you feel more like yourself. Good luck, I’m here if you need to talk.
