Just sleeping through treatment
This actually pertains to my husband, not myself.
We have both been looking so forward to him being able to begin spravato treatment. I've tried not to get my hopes up but everything we read made it sound like this may actually be the thing that helps him get out of the crippling depression and anxiety he's been experiencing.
He completed his 3rd treatment yesterday, and each time he goes, he tells me that its not unpleasant... because he just naps the whole time. Last week his first 2 treatments were back-to-back days (Wednesday and Thursday) which I thought was odd to begin with. The following 3 days were ROUGH, with him expressing to me that his SI was worse, and he was searching for reasons not to harm himself. We worked through it, and got to his session yesterday (Monday) and it was the same. 2 hour nap, then awake and normal.
I guess I'm just looking for experiences. Is this normal? Should he continue? Should we be telling his psychiatrist and therapist about it? I just want to support him the best I can.
