I was at a bar last week and they were playing My Heart Will Go On. Last time I saw Titanic I was locked up in the psych hospital. Now I keep having flashbacks about that time. Some of them are good... I felt very safe there. But mostly I remember how awful my mental health was at the time.
Anyone else get flashbacks to the hospital?

Yes. I made some good friends that I traded phone numbers with. They all turned out to be abusive manipulative @ssholes. This was 2 years ago and I still feel hurt and betrayed. I also have a hard time getting past my first hospital stay and how terrified and manic I was.

I remember some, but not all of my hospitalizations. I had what some people call "manic blackouts". I actually sometimes wish some of that lost time was recovered, but maybe it won't because those blackout times were just way too traumatic.

One time when I was manic I was in a hospital that for some reason decided I was safe enough to go on an outing. It was to a flower show. The smell and colors of the flowers was so intense that now when I'm around lots of flowers I get flashbacks to those days....it was in the '80's but flowers take me back as if it were yesterday. It wasn't an awful time everything was so intense cause I was still manic.
Oh yeah, Thriller was the big song at the time
