> They probably won't test you unless they think they have a reason. Should you lie anout drinking? I don't know. I usually try to avoid lying, but it is necessary at times. Do you see yourself going there much longer?
I'm two days in and patients are generally there for 4-6 weeks. Unless they decide I'm not really that depressed, I expect to be going for at least three more weeks.
And it's true, I'm not really that depressed anymore. Not having to work makes me feel good. Actually I think it was the medication I was on causing issues, and that I could probably go back to work tomorrow.> You know a psychodynamic sort of group might help with interoersonal stuff. I go to one, once a week. It's all about relating to others in the group, communication, examining how you react to others, etc. Sometimes they're hard to find, but if you google the American group psychotherapy association, they may have a referral directory.
They have a directory of psychotherapists but not of groups.
