@HephaistosF @visakanv Yeah, I go because I have bipolar and if I'm having an up or down, people will tell me to "get help" and I'll go because I don't want to look resistant, but I've never understood what I'm supposed to get out of it. Only thing that helps mania is sleep meds πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

@HephaistosF @visakanv And it is absurd that the healthcare system pushes me into useless convos with therapists until things get bad enough to end up in the ER and get a shot of Ativan and sleep and then I'm fine but stuck in inpatient till I convince drs I'm fine

@HephaistosF @visakanv Luckily now have a psychiatrist who gives me a small amount of Xanax which I take if I'm not sleeping two nights in a row and that cuts off any impending episode
