For the last month I have been in a private hospital. Many times they have threatened to put me in a closed ward (Public not Private Hospital) but last night I came as close as I have ever been. Annoying thing is that I am fairly fine during the day but at night, round 6pm onwards, I get agitated, dissociated, severe SI, racing thoughts, PTSD flashbacks, disorganised thinking and other things.

So far I have managed to convince them I am safe enough to stay in the private hospital but last night they almost called my doctor to have me transferred. I am scared of the Public hopistal. I asked them to hit me with drugs so I could sleep it off and they did that.

This morning I feel ok but not as good as I have been most days lately so I am worried I will fall into a BIG hole this evening. I am scared of being locked up as I have PTSD and cannot stand being trapped but i guess if I am unsafe the best option is the locked ward. This episode has been hell. One month in and I am very unwell. This only adds to my despair. On the plus side I have discovered Spotify and been listening to music constantly.

I read this because I found it interesting that someone is locked up that feels the same way as I do..but I am out here..wreaking havoc on everyone and it is painful within myself!

I wish you a speedy recovery.

I'm sorry you're going through this but I'm happy you can still communicate with the world via PC.

Thanks, if I get into the locked ward I will have no internet or mobile phone privileges. So, if I go silent, that is why.

That's the plan for tonight, drug me into oblivion before I can harm myself. It is 9.30am and I am already feeling weird, so this could be a tough day.

Oh boy.
I wish some combination of meds and therapy will benefit you soon.
I know you've suffered so much.
I hope you keep your internet.
