Hi all, I just got back from a 2wk stint in a psych hospital for telling my therapist I'd "given up" on life.

Now I'm home-have been for a couple weeks, but still very unsure of myself. I'm not wanting to hurt myself anymore, but it's like I don't know how to "be" either. I am on short term disability and waste way too much time on the internet or reading. I have all these long term and short term goals in my mind but it's like I don't have one ounce of motivation to do anything to reach those goals. Everyone hugs me and asks how I'm doing but only when I see them, they never call or come over. And when I have called the couple people I have called, are too busy or are dealing with their own stuff they've got going on.

How do you deal with life post-hospitalization? Any tips would be welcome, thanks
