Wish I could control my anxiety in light of that  but I appreciated the tip.
I am calmer now but back to not socialising for a bit. |
Just wanted to add that discharging early isn't all that wise anyway...I know how frustrating it is being in hospital and having all those things you would normally have taken away from you but you're there to get help. Let them help you.
I discharged myself on my first admission and then less than a month later I was admitted again. Maybe if I had stayed the first time I wouldn't have ended up there again...
