I think she meant her eyebrow and tongue piercings have to be removed..i think before people go into hospital, they have to take off all the body piercings, jewelrys etc. for health and safety reasons.

 

[TweetyBird]

Well look what Tweety said....she DO NOT want a certified interpreter cuz she DO NOT trust them, thats why she is using her mom for interpreting..cant tell her what to do cuz its her business. Am i right? Tweety..if im wrong or misunderstood you, correct me ok?

yea u are right!!!! i dont trust interpeter.. so i would like comfortable for my mom be my interpeter...

 

[TweetyBird]

Ahhh! that is crazy.... the doctor should understand you and seems he/she does wrong for you.

bingo! that why i am looking for other dr... i will ask dr abt yesterday and see what his or her think of this??? i will let yall know!!!!

 

[TweetyBird]

I have a friend who has been through depression, the dr gave her meds and then wanted to put her to hospital but she told him NO, instead she asked for like some kind of support group who go through same thing...it helps her, so maybe you can try ask the new dr and see if there is one that have support group that you can attend to instead of putting u in the hospital if that makes you feel better that way. Talk and see if you can get that instead... that maybe can help you. There are ppl here in AD cares about you so keep your chin up!! and your blues will go away in time... whatever you decide, we'll be here supporting you! We all will be here for you tweety

yea i did asked dr yesterday abt group, they say i only need write down on the papers.. i told them dont think so cuz of it wont be help me and get out of my chest like that... so also, they say if i am at hospital, no family or no friends to visit.. also no interpeter too, how fk i uddy what group talk abt it???? that so STUPID!

Yeah i understand...dont make any sense but they did tell me that i had to take my rings, earings and hearing aid off before going into the hospital whether if it is outpatient or inpatient or surgery, i had to take them all off!
But if you just gonna stay in hospital for just meds or bloodwork, i dont understand why take off jewelry or piercings, geez....

Tweety,

I don't think that they are telling you are crazy. It is old stigma attached to mental health. They are just trying to cover every bases and rule things out so they can narrow down to where you can get help the most.

Get a second opinion if you felt that these drs came too strong onto you.

Better to have them take you very seriously than under-seriously so you can get help. If you are so angry at them, presuming that they think you are crazy, please look at it carefully because you may have some old myths about checking in for a week. I have had friends doing that and they were glad that they could get help after extensive testing for a week or two.

Good luck

Oh what ??? They don't even help you about support group.. hello.. theres support group for alocoholic, drugs problems, violences etc.. there should be one for depression.. i do not uddy that they tell you to write, yes write helps but not always.. it's a piece of paper... jeez

yea but i rather signs same time out of my chest it will help me.. but if i write down on paper and i feel like i am in the box not see the people faces... u know what i mean???

 

[Fly Free]

after reading more posts by other ppl and i happened to agree with those who has mentioned using mom for an interpreter really is not appropriate and that u should also consider getting 2nd, 3rd or whatever nbr opinion on how to best handle this -- altho i uddy that u dont trust certified terps, they are bound by their very strict code of ethics and they are by law bound to NOT be blabbing abt where they terped at and who their clients were and etc etc -- they would be a better choice than mom mainly cuz theyre neutral and mom cant get involved

Yeah really, but i think there are support groups for depression and all but you got to have an interpreter for the deaf and Tweety said they are not allowed to have family, friends and not even an interpreter! so how can she get into support group if there are no interpreter??? no way, she would be able to participate in any support group!..

BINGO!! u are right abt this!!!

 

[Fly Free]

Defee -- interpreters should be allowed in if theres a deaf client involved in the support group -- the support groups cannot discriminate on that! if a deaf person needs a terp then the terp should be allowed in and the hearies need to be aware that terps are bound by a very strict code of ethics -- if they are found to be in violation of it they could be sued by the client

Tweety,

Like a few people said in here, the doctor isn't necessarily marking you as a crazied patient. S/He only had suggested that perhaps you would check-in the hospital and stay for a week or two. At least it's not longer. I'm sure they just want to see how you are in a stimulated/non-stimulated environment. I don't think the doctor was necessarily marking you as attempting suicide neither.

Go ahead and get an second opinion. If the second doctor suggested it as a possibility, then I would encourage you to try it out. It seems (from what I have read and heard so far) that it could be of benefit to you. A stay at the hospital won't be on your criminal records and no one else really has to know about it.

Mental hospitals aren't so bad as they used to be in the past (think "One Who Flew Over the Cuckoo Nest" or "Girl, Interrupted"), I don't think they're going to drug you up so much. I believe the doctors will just explore what could be of help to you, because different anti-depression drugs causes different side effects. Believe me, I've seen it, and sometimes it wasn't pretty -- I knew someone who got back on meds and trying a new one and she acted bizarrely. If the doctors could observe that they could do something about it.

Also, another suggestion from me: Was this a medical practicator that you went to? Or a psychotherpist? If it was a medical doctor, then perhaps you may want to consider going to the psychotherpist (those with medical degrees but specialize in psychology, and allowed to prescribe medications) because they go through with a lot of depressed individuals and may offer the best alternative.

As for interpreters, I agree with some people who said that it is not wise to bring your mom as the interpreter... I know you don't trust other interpreters, and that there are very, very few of them in your area, but mom does kind of violate the private patient act. Who knows, mom could have been telling the doctor other details about your depression and suggested for more help from the doctor, that's what a concerned mom would do. Perhaps you can just have mom join you in the room with the interpreter and let her sit there. Or how about finding a peer interpreter? I used to interpret for a deaf man at a hospice and he very much appreciated it because I am also Deaf (but able to read lips well and interpret).

Depression is very common nowadays -- I believe there's just too much stimuli that causes that, unfortuately. I've suffered depression, gone to counseling, and wrote a lot. Now, if I'm just not happy, I find other ways to make myself happier or I leave the situation where I'm not happy. At least that's what works for me.

Tweety, I know you'll find your way out of this "funk" you're in.

My best,
KJ

Yes i know that but Tweety said above that she is not allowed to have interpreter, family or friends in the hospital, thats why im shocked cuz thats a violation of ADA law so she need to report that to ADA.

Um, some hospitals do not allow family or friends. But they SHOULD allow interpreters. Perhaps the information received from the doctor was incorrect (or they just didn't know what the heck they were talking about). Accommodations should be arranged, and if they still refuse that, then yes, it's a violation of ADA law.
