I haven't yet been accepted. IDK they had some medical questions for me. I don't know if I can do it though because 45 days is hella long and my work kind of freaked out when I told them. Even though my job should be protected under CFRA you never know. Plus 45 days away from my family would be super hard.


I made a plan with my therapist last night. I am going to take next week off of work (so I won't be around on here guys but I'll be thinking of you). And schedule it like I was IP. So making sure I get out of bed and stuff like that. Also like doing painting, reading, calligraphy, watch some movies. Plus my Dad said maybe we could go to the beach or something fun as a treat. There's also a lake kind of nearby in the mountains that we like to go to to just hang out and have a sack lunch. It's just pretty and tranquil there so we will probably do that.


I'm going to talk to my pastor's wife tonight who I really trust about this and about everything going on with my sister and my niece and stuff. I've been really stressed out about that.


That's kind of where I am at right now with everything.
Honestly SK….. think the vacation plan sounds even better than residential treatment, sometimes you’ve gotta force yourself to do fun stuff and it starts lifting the depression.
