No one has found either pair of my pants. And I'm.supposed to put these in the hamper of hell to be lost and laundered. I'm disgusted by everything that goes wrong here. I know I was lonely in my apartment but I've almost always lived alone and appreciated the quiet time, such.as it was.

I'm sorry they lost your pants. That's just more frustration put on an already strained situation. I really do hope you get out soon.

Smoking is 18. Drinking is 21.

Yes, but it's already last year's model. A new one should be coming out, if it hasn't already. It's.like a mid level model of their current phones. Not a flagship but it's carrier unlocked. That's always important.

Well, I found out today what the nursing staff really think of me here. Firstly, they don't actually understand my experiences AT ALL, and just lump it all into a box labelled 'crazy'. Even the pareidolia faces, which is a 100% normal thing everyone's brain can do!!! I actually showed my nurse the faces yesterday and she can see them too, so I'm clearly not F'ing hallucinating, but they just dismiss it as 'crazy' without even understanding it. The ones I spoke to about it haven't even heard of the term pareidolia!!!

And I found out that they have mistaken my shyness for me feeling intellectually superior to everyone here. The F'ing hilarious thing is (that's really not that funny tbh) that the last time my IQ was measured it was AVERAGE! And that was on a GOOD day FOUR YEARS AGO, so god knows how bad it would be on a bad day now!!! So my average intelligence apparently makes me feel superior to all of the other averagely intelligent staff and patients here??! FFS!

I just feel so misunderstood, and I just want to go home so badly How can they supposedly help me when they don't even F'ing 'get' me??!

I suppose I'd say I only have residual symptoms now... just wish they'd disappear altogether. Also thankful for good insight... hearing voices everyday would be a completely different story otherwise.

So all in all, things are good right now.
I'm glad to hear that things are good and that the meds are helping without too many pesky side effects.

I bought that book you found on a Google search ages ago when I asked about emotional fragmentation. I'm hoping that it will be interesting and informative, so thank you again for suggesting it to me

I'm sorry you had a bad day. I can understand it because of being here. Not everyone here is taking psych meds. But Everytime I've tried to help anyone in a wheelchair, they call my name loudly and say let go of the wheel chair. Like I'm psychotic and can't be trusted to.push a wheelchair.

The good news is that I will get out of here sooner than later. And they asked about my apartment in the middle of the night , after they had had me meet people from the next assisted care option, so maybe they're thinking of just sending me home. Medicaid is going to get much harder to cover people like me, and that means I get to go home, I hope. Whatever they're doing, if I lose funding it would be "don't let the door hit you on the way out" lol.

That's exactly true. Funding stops and suddenly you're cured. Let's hope funding ends soon.

Lol. They have to spend a lot of time doing paperwork for people like me who are "high level" which I guess means having enough marbles, mentally and physically. I'm not in a wheelchair or catatonic or whatever. And it's supposed to be permanent funding. When they're dealing with people in wheelchairs compared to someone like me, the physical disability needs more coverage.

And then I think about all the things I hate about the place - the postal carrier who won't deliver my packages which leaves me very limited in how I can.shop. worrying about any postal issue. I'm really feeling terrible right now. I wonder if they get physical with residents who don't shower when expected to. They have not brought me any pants.
