Aren't you on a community treatment order though? If so, they can't force you to have it in the community, instead they will section you and forcibly give it to you in hospital. I don't think you have much of a choice about having the depot if you're on a CTO Kureha

I'm guna shower EVERYDAY, brush my teeth twice a day, join meditation, and yoga, and get up at the same time everyday no matter if my bf is in or not. I think it will help my motivation

I think that's a good plan, but I would caution against doing too much too fast. In my experience it's unsustainable. I'm focusing on getting up at 10am every morning and leaving the house every day. At the moment my shower target is twice a week, which is a bit much considering I was averaging every month/6 weeks until very recently.
What course are you doing? Is it in your home town? I'm hoping to go back to finish my psychology course in Sept (if I can convince my parents I'm ok)

My last wisdom tooth to come through is really hurting the last week
It's been hurting on/off for a number of years, much longer than the others took to come through, so I'm worried that there's not enough room for it to come through, and the gum at the back is really sore and swollen. I'd love to go to the dentist to see if they think it's hurting because it's stuck or just being slow to come through, but I don't have a dentist (I'm on a waiting list for a NHS one, because lots of dentists these days only want to take private patients cos they earn more). Though apparently if the bottom wisdom teeth need extracting you have to have bone sutures and stuff, which sounds awful and I'd really rather avoid that. I'm not a big fan of dentists or doctors or procedures, which is ironic since I was a medstudent and had no problem doing stuff to other people! lol
Also I'm going to France on Tuesday for 10 days and so won't be around here. There's wifi but I'm only taking my phone and I hate trying to use the forum on such a tiny screen. I'm somewhat looking forward to it, but I'm also terrified that the Govt surveillance team will follow me abroad using the tracker. I want to go horse riding (I did a Bucket List a couple of weeks ago and horse riding is one of those things that I'd love to do), but I'm scared they'll take photos of me horse riding and kayaking etc as evidence that I'm faking. Luckily Max is coming too (got him a pet passport) so I won't be so scared in a new place, but I'm still nervous about the trip. Anyway, that's where I'll be
