Thanks to everyone who read my suicidal thoughts post. This post is somewhat like that, but about how I did post hospitalization.
First, they never admitted me to a mental hospital because I have a port-a-cath. I don't know what that was all about, it was not accessed. Who was crazy?
So apparently the first night at home, my husband went to Temple for the Jewish Holiday, and left me on my own. Well when he came home, he found me in the driveway at 10:30 at night in the rain. I had on my PJs, my pocketbook and both of the remotes for the TV. I was bound for the car I guess, but luckily I had no key. However that meant I had no key to get into the house.
I had no idea how I got there, don't remember shoving the remotes in my pocketbook or anything else. I do remember him coming home because he was yelling at me. Then stopped once he realized I had no idea where I was.
I drifted in and out of this psychosis for a couple of days before he could get me an appointment with my PCP (the Psychiatrist wouldn't see me because she wasn't accepting new patients.
So finally I get to my PCP and he looks at my new couple of medications, which were Remeron (depression) and Cogentin (muscle spasms) and thought that sense one alone can cause psychosis, and both could, that we should stop the cogentin and go with just the Remeron.
So hopefully there will be no more psychosis of any sort (MS induced or medication induced).
Shew...I am tired just thinking about it. Just wanted to put it out there that psychosis can come from many things. I had it twice in the same week with different causes.
Thanks for everyone's support!
