Men Have Called Her Crazy

Content Warning: This section of the guide includes discussions of suicidal ideation, self-harm, mental illness, and gender discrimination. 

Six new women arrive at Dalby House, making Shawn, Caitlyn, and Tendler feel overwhelmed. They start watching Grey’s Anatomy, though the older woman scoffs at the younger new women for their choice of show. Tendler attends another meeting with her care team to set up her plan for after she leaves treatment. Beth will work as Tendler’s case manager for six months to monitor her suicidal ideation and self-harm urges and enroll Tendler in the hospital’s Intensive Outpatient Program, in which Tendler will attend three-hour DBT meetings three times a week for three months. Beth and Dr. Philips will also look for a better full-time therapist for Tendler.

Tendler has dinner with the Dalby House women and the Oscar men and overhears conversations about going to the gazebo to meet up and smoke. Back at Dalby House, Tendler and Shawn prepare for Shawn’s rock ceremony. Tendler agrees to pick a rock for Shawn and chooses a rock called “peace.” The new women sneak out of Dalby House to smoke with the Oscar House men, and Tendler goes to bed alone.
