Today I got threatened with residential treatment. I’m not too happy about that at all! I’ve had a bad spell of hospitalizations since my dad died and I was the one to find him. I’ve actually been hospitalized on the psychiatric unit just about every 3 months for a year and a half. Yeah, that isn’t a good thing but I’m working on it. I’ve been in intensive outpatient programs and going to support programs weekly. I also got involved with another support program that provided me with a case manager.
I’m doing everything I should be doing it seems like. I’m working hard in therapy, as hard as I can. I’m doing DBT stuff with my case manager, I’m going to multiple support groups a well. And today my therapist brings up sending me off to residential treatment. She mentions how nothing seems to be helping me and that is the next step – sending me out of state for at least a month to a DBT based program. Luckily, its not as easy as it may sound.
I have state health insurance for the poor. They don’t even cover IOP here, they aren’t going to want to cover something like residential here or out of state for sure. I don’t know why my therapist would think they’d be able to get me into an out of state program. She even was out of line enough to suggest the program I’ve previously been abused at – citing that maybe there was new staff. Thank God that I know for sure they don’t accept Medicaid!
I’m very thankful it was just a threat that she can’t really make happen. All they can do is keep hospitalizing me when I feel suicidal and providing me outpatient treatment. All I can keep doing is working as hard as I can to get well.

I've noticed that some treatment approaches seems to be heavily based in compliance and in hinting at all the "worse things" that "could happen" if the individual fails to comply. I'm really not sure how that's helpful at all :(
