Hi everyone,

As you may or may not know I am still in the hospital. I have been in the hospital for I think 5 weeks now and I am going crazy. I was in one hospital for 3 weeks and then transferred to another hospital so I could get ECT treatments which I have had a round of in the past. Well today will be my 6th treatment the only problem is they are not taking me till 2pm and my anxety is sky rocketing. I was given the night time meds but they have to hold one on ECT days and I can have no meds this morning and nothing to eat or drink until after my apt. This is causing my anxiety to be out of control and I feel like my heart is just ponding away. I just met with my Dr. and social worker and I was so unfocused I forgot to ask them to change my privllage level and I think this is considered a long weekend for them. Maybe I can go ask one of the counselor's to grab my Dr. when she is free before she leaves. Anyway just needed to find a friendly place where I could vent my stress and others would understand. If anyone has any good relaxation suggestions or anything to help calm anxiety let me know. I am thinking of you all and hope you are all doing well.
Andy
