TRIGGER - cheerfully sui update

I was seen by the psych nurse this morning. Apparently it’s not normal to giggle while discussing sui.
Anyhoo I’m now booked in for an inpatient admission. I live in an apartment with balconies and very close to a train station so I get that I’m close to triggers.
But even then I’m not sure how I feel about going into hospital.

Sounds like a good idea.

I once felt as you do and once’s was IP I realized just how unsafe I was.

Take good care of your self.

Will do. It’s just a shame I didn’t get the chance to go shopping before going IP.

You are right where you need to be at this time. It's best to be safe, and keeping us safe is what psych hospitals are pretty good at. Thinking of you and hoping you'll be well soon.
