Hi everyone. I went to the ER and they admited me. It took 29 hours to find a bed, but once I got there and started receiving aggressive treatment, I started to feel better. They switched risperdone to Invega, and by Sunday afternoon I was feeling better. I had to stay for a few days so that they could see that I was stabiliized. I came home this afternoon. The thoughts have been gone for 3 and a half days.

The downside is that I had a bunch of stuff stolen. Nothing valuable, but I was still angry. I spoke up at community meeting and even though I knew I wasn't going to get my stuff back, I was proud of myself.
