Im involuntarily inpatient again since Thursday. Being locked up panics me but, trying to cope by drugging on Ativan. Also not supposed to have my phone. I snuck it in inside in my bra to check on the dogs. Think of me?

Hopefully will get out Monday when PHP starts again. You get no privileges if here involuntarily. Sucks. I'm not even allowed the standard half hour to go to the cafeteria or the bookstore a lot of ppl get.

I'm allowe visitors but I don't want anyone to know. I have my own room but btwn 2 manic ppl who keep talking together and they are SO LOUD. My head is killing me.

I know someone here who is here voluntarily so she gets me things from the outside world like a toothbrush and diet coke. She's here voluntarily so she can leave for 3 hrs. Haha. So im lucky.

I hope it's a healing place for you PF. I was very much wishing for you to get the care and safety that you deserve. May this be that place of safety for you--in spite of the indignities and discomforts that are unfortunately part of the package.
Thanks for this!

I don't understand how I'm even being held here involuntarily. I haven't told them I'm suicidal, and I *did* SH, but it wasn't anywhere near as severe as usual.

What are you wanting from the system? If you don't want treatment you need not present yourself to them.

I suspect you want healing to start takeing place in your life. How can anyone help you? How can they help you? And, more importantly, how can you help them to help you? In actuality, this will becomes YOU helping YOU.

To me, at this moment it sounds like a game.

My very raw opinions only.

I don't think Pink is playing games. Consciously or unconsciously.

Is it maybe some sort of rule with the PHP program? Like if you SH in it, then you get hospitalized? Who was it that decided you should be kept there involuntarily? You could ask them about it.

Do you know yet if they're letting you out today? I hope you're feeling better. The hospital sounds like a miserable experience. But I understand that they want to keep you safe.

There. They probably thought you aren't getting better and need more severe measures. I don't know

Well, I did want help, PHP, instensuve therapy. I answered truthfully when asked. Being willing to seek full time help is a bit different than being held in the ward (another part if the hospital) under ""preventative guard." There is no therapy hre either. I'll try to make the best of it. Im in A turquoise jumpsuit with paper shoes. No access to therapy from here either.
