Mom on psych hold
TW: talk of suicide
My mother is currently being on psych hold. My brother and SIL took her to ER Sunday because she has been talking about killing herself. Dr had her admitted for observation and SIL called to give me info so I could come see her before she was admitted.
I have been NC with mom for 2 years.
I really appreciate SIL let me know. I need to add that brother and I do not have a close relationship. I told SIL I would not be coming to see mom due to the impact it would have on my own mental health. I shared with SIL a brief psych history and which drugs I know mom has been on over the years.
How stupid am I for feeling guilty for not visiting? Mom definitely needs help but will she get the care she needs if she isnt honest with her Drs? This whole thing has me spiraling even though mom has used threats all throughout my childhood when she wanted attention and I am thinking this is one of her latest attempts to attention. I recognize it must be treated as serious and appreciate brother and SIL for seeking help for her.
Just needed to share with anyone who can understand. Thanks.
