I just got home from the hospital, again. But this time it was way worse. On Monday, I od'd and cut my wirsts. I talked to a crisis hotline lady for two hours while doing those things. She finally managed to get my location and called authorities. I was in the ICU for three days, out of it. I woke up on day three. One of the ICU ladies said I really shouldn't have survived this one. I went to a psych hospital on an M1 and spent two days sleeping. And today I got to go home. It's good to be home, but I'm so exhausted. Plus, I got an infection in my arm so I need to take antibiotics that make me very nauseaus.

I think I realized that yes, my life sucks, has always sucked, and most likely will always suck, but it's mine, it's the life I was given, and I better make the best of it. I feel a new calm, like I made my peace with it.

I'm glad I'm home, my kids are over the moon, the dog went nuts when I got home, and now I'm ready for bed.

As she draws her final breath
Just beyond the door he'll find her
Taking her hand he softly says

For the first time you can open your eyes
And see the world without your sorrow
Where no one knows the pain you left behind
And all the peace you could never find
Is waiting there to hold and keep you
Welcome to the first day of your life

Just open up your eyes as I lay you down tonight
Safe on the other side
No more tears to cry
