I've come out the hospital feeling not really ready to be out before. In fact, I've gone back in two weeks after being discharged the first time. Watch yourself. Do you have a therapist? Let them know exactly what you are feeling. This is a time to be completely honest with yourself and others.

The thing about the hospital is that everything is done for us. We don't have to make any decisions. They are made for us. It's stressful to return to real life.
