Well, I had a rough weekend. It started a few days following up to last Thursday. My parents were concerned about me constantly complaining to them about hearing voices. They started noticing I was saying gobidy gook sentences that made no sense and I didn't correct myself. That's when they decided to force me into the hospital. They took me in Thursday morning. Please note, this was my second time in 3 months that I've gone to the psych ward at this hospital. When I finally got up to the psych unit, I was in tears. I didn't want to be there. Days passed. My parents visited me and I cried my eyes out when they left and I threatened to smother myself with my pillow to the nurses. They upped the amount of times per hour they checked on me in my room. After 4 days and being put on 9 different medications, including Thorazine, I felt much better. I was released yesterday and I'm not hearing any more voices. Could I have been experiencing psychosis before going into the hospital?
