Asperger child injured in mental care unit - Whats our next step?
We recently had our 14 year old daughter who has Asperger placed into an in patient hospital program . She had become aggressive and non compliant on her current medications scratching, biting, pinching refusing to go to school, refusing teachers orders .When we visited her the other night, she had a large bruise all the way around her right wrist. She told us one of the men who restrained her did it. We asked the nurse about the bruise and she said that happened when our daughter was being restrained by security. The next day the nurse called and our daughter said her wrist hurt. The hospital had taken a report to children s services on the injury as a formality. These are professionals and should be able to restrain our daughter without leaving bruises. These bruises look as if someone wanted to show her who was in charge. Where do we go from here?Some added details Our daughter was not restrained in handcuffs, or hand restraints. Only one wrist is bruised. I understand that she is aggressive and that s why we placed her into the care of professionals. As far as them having to deal with her and giving them a break This is one of the leading hospitals in the Midwest, they should be ready to " medicate" AKA " deal" with her without injuring her.
If I am legally married, is my spouse partially responsible for my medical and mental care?
I am an amputee and just recently had my only leg reconstructed.....my husband refuses to divorce me, but will also not provide me with any funding for medicial care....is he legally obligated to do so?
How do I become a patient at a mental care facility?
In the last year i have had 2 miscarriages during a 7 month period and am currently going through a divorce. I have a severe bipolar disorder and retain practically no short term memory. The stress of my divorce is driving me insane. I can't sleep. When I try to I lay in bed and shake for hours. I can't eat without vomiting because I'm too stressed. I've been having mild hallucinations for months. I have cut myself since i was 11 and continue to because it helps me cope. I was a victim of severely violent incest via my brother from the ages of 7 to 10. I moved to my mother's house at 13 and was severely raped again by my stepfather this lasted until i was 15. I told my mother on many different occasions she did not believe me. Finally, I blurted it out at school and was sent to a foster home. The state tried to return me to my father but he initially refused. Finally, after two years he agreed for me to be returned into his custody.....all this being said....I guess everything has just left me unable to cope currently. Last night, I flipped out at the bar I work at and started throwing lit packs of matches at a customer who had only given me an opinion. Over the last couple of months my mood swings are so erratic that I am regularly swinging from manic to depressed and back in a span of 20 minutes. I would like to put myself into a inpatient mental care facility. However, regardless of my erratically unpredictable behavior, masochism, history of sexual abuse, two past suicide attempts, hallucinations, recent violent behavior, insomnia, and current inability to cope with my i am not a threat and therefor am unable to to become committed. I know i have a problem. I want help but I have been told that " I am not a threat to myself or others" regardless of all this information. About the only way I can find to get myself help is to either make a " suicide attempt" or try to kill someone. I don't want to die right but I'm afraid that if my condition worsens I may do something harmful. Apparently, this is not enough and no one takes my pleas for help seriously. What can i do to get myself admitted?
What mental illnesses would lead to long term in a mental care unit?
I'm writing a story and the main characters dad has a mental illness that means he has to be keep in a facility at all time but because I'm overly obsesive that means I can't make myself write anything until I know all the facts so if anyone could help me I will love u 4ever
