Hello.
My partner was admitted for SI.  They’ve never been admitted before, and it’s been very hard on them and really traumatic.  They feel dehumanized, and for very valid reasons.  I fear it’s done much more harm than good, and they no longer trust their psychiatrist, as she recommended this facility.  My partner is supposed to be discharged soon, how do I support them after this?  If you’ve been in a similar situation, what do you wish your partner had done for you?  If my partner is resistant to seeing his psychiatrist, how do I encourage them to stay compliant?  They’ve always been very compliant, they go to all of their appointments and have been proactive.  I’m afraid that’s all been destroyed by this experience.  Thanks in advance for any input, and I’m sorry if you’ve had the same experience.
