I got there on a Tuesday night and left Friday morning.
But I ruminated for a good year on the situation. About why I did it and stuff. ironically it happened because of an unprofessional therapist ditching me suddenly. And she got into a lot of trouble, then shortly after left the practice.

I still sometimes ruminate about my July/August/September hospitalizations. It's a lot to process and it takes time, but I'm trying to learn from chewing it over (and over,, and over) while moving forward on my goals. I don't know about you guys but I think I ruminate because I haven't satisfactorily processed such an event and I'm looking for answers, and I'm hoping my therapist and friends/family will be able to help me with the processing bit and accepting that I won't find all the answers.
