Oh no! Just saw the doctor walk by. He's the same one I saw before. He hates me. He will try to keep me here forever.

I understand how that feels.

I always end up with doctors who want to keep me forever. I always have to really convince them to let me leave! One time it was after I'd been there for ten days too.

I'm sure you'll be okay. Just do a really good job convincing them you need to leave when you start feeling better. You'll be fine. Just don't leave before you're ready. My last hospital stay I left before I was ready because I'm always in such a hurry to leave and when I got home all I could think about was how I should have stayed a few extra days because I hadn't been ready.

You probably won't realize how bad you're feeling right now until you start feeling better. At least that's my experience.

Well they want to adjust my meds. Which means I'll be here for a while. Terrible timing. Boo! At least I have a phone charger now.

I feel so defeated. I don't think they will let me out anytime soon.

Please try to be patient. Med adjustments take a little time, and you need to be in a safe place while you're going through it. I'm glad you went in...you really needed the extra help. Hang in there!

(I'm amazed they let you keep your phone.)

I only get to use my phone for 15 minutes every hour. Maybe because I went voluntary??

They want to try gabapentin and clozapine or something like that. I don't want to take these meds. I want to get home and finish the work I have started. My kids are with my mom, my confused wife won't even take them while I am in here. My mom drinks at night. What if one of them gets hurt or sick.

At least the darn demons are not telling me what to do. Told me not to take my am meds. This is getting confusing to write. I am sorry I don't know what to do, when I try to meditate I think bad thoughts.

Wish I could keep my phone long enough to to watch an orange is the new black.
