[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She needs more effective help ASAP. Can a crisis response team help?[/quote] +1 In bed 80 percent of the time sounds like someone who possibly needs immediate inpatient treatment. I would contact her main dr. first thing tomorrow and be extremely frank about how she is totally debilitated. She is living in bed, OP. She may need a substantial stay in a psychiatric hospital. If her doctor says no, does the doctor actually get that she does not leave the bed? It sounds as if she would not voluntarily check into a hospital and you may have to find a doctor who would commit her involuntarily--? OP, I'm so sorry because this falls on you in ways that would break her heart if she were well enough to be aware but she is not aware and not doing this on purpose. Please, as a PP said, friends are key. Do your friends know how very sick she is? Is there any friend close enough that he or she can watch the kids while you try to get crisis help? [/quote]
