Hi everyone. What are your thoughts (if any) on mental health hospitalization when a person is suffering from Lyme? Is it always a disaster, or has anyone here had a positive experience from it?
Thanks.

As the mother of a son who has bipolar disorder, which is probably related to congenital Lyme and co's, I feel it is necessary to treat the mental illness and get it under control, no matter what the cause.
None of my kids is ready to listen to the possibility of Lyme, but at least my son has his mental health issues under control and is living a fairly normal life with that.
