In reply to Pdoc recommending inpatient treatment, posted by glennb on December 9, 2008, at 18:43:13
You should check to see if NY Presbyterian still has its depression evaluation service. If you meet their criteria, they will treat you as an outpatient. If you are treatment resistant and end up needing a combination of drugs to respond adequately, that might take many months. I don't think it makes sense to do this inpatient. There are many things to consider when making the decision to go inpatient. What is your doctor's rationale for suggesting this course of action?
