My husband attempted suicide Friday night. He’s been admitted in a psychiatric unit since. He’s been taking the depression meds they prescribed him. Going to all the meetings. Seeing the therapist. He is so miserable there and begs me every time he calls me to come home. They won’t tell him how long he’ll be there when he asks. I fear being there so isolated is making him feel worse.

My question is if you or anyone you know had a stay like this, how long was it? When I tried googling it said it depends on how long your insurance will cover the stay. We have Medicaid so I have no idea.

I’m just so worried about him. I know he’s getting care he needs there but he hates it there. He’s isolated from all family and hates being around a bunch of strangers. I visited him today for the first time and we weren’t allowed any physical contact so we couldn’t even hug.

I wish I could help him more idk what to do 😞
