I’m in the hospital rn waiting for a psych bed. Every day, someone comes in and asks me safety questions. Do you feel safe right now? Do you wanna hurt yourself? Do you want to hurt anyone else? Are you hearing or seeing things other people can’t see or hear? My answer has constantly been yes, yes, no, no. The problem is, I’ve been lying about it a lot lately. Why? Because the people who are asking me these questions aren’t having the sitters leave the room and I don’t feel comfortable being honest about that in front of the sitter. I have severe social anxiety so I can’t say anything about it either. My main social worker on my case who sees me Monday thru Friday is always good about having the sitter leave the room. And it even says on my chart to have the sitter leave the room. But still, the nurses who ask me and the weekend people aren’t having the sitters leave. I’ve complained about this to my main SW but nothing has changed. I don’t want them to send me home because I’m saying I’m fine. I know I’d end up &gt;! Killing myself !&lt; when I got home. I know I need help. I feel stuck.
