still went to bed late and woke up early.
urgh. didnt sleep well. ended up taking a xanax cuz my anxiety is high every morning nowadays. im really fed up. i hope i can get my meds back to normal when i go back to see the NP. that dumb second NP in training was very very very stupid in speaking up on a study she saw and lowering my sleeping meds. that was very stupid. she put me in a category. she categorized me. she doesnt know me. i hate her.

Well I never made it to the british heart foundation. I just didn't have the motivation to do volunteer work today. Oh well. I lack motivation. It's not the end of the world.

Now that I look back to last year, I was pretty damn manic. Like insanely manic without insight. Or it was during stimulant and alcohol abuse idk.
I feel wide awake now that I also had a nap in the day yesterday. Hope everyone is doing good. |

I've never posted in this forum yet, but I do want to check in.
My anxiety and delusions have decreased since my pdoc changed the dosage and frequency of my Seroquel. I now take 200mgs, 3X/day. I just wanted to post that, and say hi to everyone. |

Do you have a note pad on your phone that you could use each time you are inspired? Once you have an idea for a book, then ideas just burst out each and every day. which is where you want to store your ideas on a phone/notepad. The next hardest part is how to start it. Once you are able to have an outline, for me, everything falls in place. If im stuck in one section, I can go to the next. The point is to keep moving through it. The best part is tinkering with it. Moving, molding, and giving finesse is really fun. You'll catch yourself using words you never used. It's really interesting. Plus, you can use alliterations and end rhyme to engage the reader. |

one hospital i went to had a basketball court outside but we were only allowed outside once or twice a week and it was heavily supervised. like a prison. it also had a small gym-like place where we could exercise that doubled as an art room. the whole room was really an activity room and then there was a basketball court outside. of course there was no net. it was just the round metal hoop and a slab of concrete. nothing nice.
and this place was for people that had MONEY! other places for people on goverment money was forreal like prison. they were like the epitome of psych wards. if you wanted to stay in like something from the movies goto the other ones where people were on goverment funds. sadly. unfortunately...

yeh cheers i know how to do the work, my phd thesis was 90,000 words and my MA was 20,000. I have several more academic books in various stages including a double monograph on Aquinas. My problem with writing fiction is that im terrible at dialogue and dont really enjoy descriptions. Without those a work is just a skeleton and no matter how great the idea or composition it just wont walk.

The 2nd hospital was just a locked unit. No gym, no cafeteria, no access to the outdoors...nothing. They even locked up the fridge when it wasn't meal time. Strangely enough I preferred this hospital because the workers were nicer.

It's beautiful out today. The kids and dogs are really enjoying the weather. It's so nice to not be buried under 3 or 4 feet of snow. My big dog got loose today and I about had a nervous breakdown...I lost my dog to the road a couple years ago and that set me off and landed me in the hospital. THankfully my big guy came right to me when I called him. Unfortunately it still set off those feelings. Lots of ativan on board now.

This happened in a pediatric hospital. A lot of the patients were into self-harm and teaching others how to do it. I never experienced that in any of the adult psychiatric units I was on.

I'm outside smoking a cigar. Black and natural. I don't like it and have 4 left. I'll just sell them I think. If I put any unfinished cigars or cigarettes into the ash tray, people will smoke them. I'm not diseased and it's pretty sad how people get so addicted and having to deal with mental illness. Tbh I smoked a few that people gave me when I didn't have smokes and they didn't want anymore but I didn't go looking in the ash tray not knowing who the owner was. |

There's also a whole building with a cafeteria leading from hallways to all units even though all units have a cafeteria of their own. 12 units in the hospital with about 30 people each. Most people in my unit are schizophrenic. The units are for specific illnesses like one for addicts, long term patients, brain injury, etc.

reminds me a lot of that. we were only allowed outside once or twice a week in the nice hospital and that was on weekends and that was a MAYBE if the rec staff was even working that day. all the other hospitals there was NO outside time. NONE. at all.
