Got admitted to hospital today. Tomorrow I have to give in my phone so won't be in contact for a while. Could use some prayers. Just to get through this.

Got my phone for the Sunday. Going not so good. Been in hospital twice before, but I am struggling because of the Social phobia. Feel a bit misunderstood to say the least. We are 12 in the ward and I have trouble sleeping. They give me sleeping pills that is not working. I am scared to sleep. I am scared to eat in the mess hall. My T is working me hard. A lot of stuff is bubbling up. They're talking about 2 months which I don't think I'll make. If I can just keep my phone so I can come here. This one woman wants to be my friend, but I'm scared to make connections. Had a couple of anxiety attacks. On new antipsychotics. Took away all my antidepressants. I just want to go home.

((((2bme))))),
I am sorry you're struggling in the hospital and your feeling misunderstood. Have you told the staff that you have PTSD? People with PTSD tend to be misunderstood and do need to feel safe. You have only been in the hospital for such a short time, give it time to adjust, it sounds like you are getting therapy in the hospital though. I am sorry that the memories and so strong right now. Remember, as hard as it is, and I know it is hard, these memories are in the past and come forward so you can work through them. Even in the hospital, try very hard to self sooth and NOT feed into the emotions that come forward. I know that can be hard because some of these emotional memories have a lot of emotions and even feel awful. But 2bme, they come out to be addressed and DO PASS and things ease up. You have to be patient and do your best to stay as calm as you can when these memories come forward. For me, I try to keep a part of myself separate in a way, a strong part that is there to remind me that what I am dealing with is PTSD and whatever comes forward are things that I need to talk about and deal with. I know you probably feel alone, but others do experience this too and once you address these things that come forward the discomfort with these memories gets less and less. Keep reminding yourself that you are working through this and WILL keep progressing and healing. (((((Hugs for a better calmer day today 2bme)))))) Open Eyes |

Weekend leave! Got out at 5 this afternoon for the weekend. Have to be back Sunday at 5 again. Will be staying with family. It has been a hectic week. My T comes in everyday for sessions so am pretty tired.
I think the biggest problem is that the ward I'm in caters for both male and female. Group sessions, eating and rec rooms are shared. I find it very difficult to ajust. Sleeping is scary, cause the ward isn't locked so I keep having thoughts of guys coming in. I told the one night nurse a bit so she sits with me a couple of hours at night. Comforting to open you eyes and see her head light where she sits reading. So I got a bit of sleep in. I'm trying very hard. Thanx for all the hugs and prayers. |

Waiting for doctor. I asked for early release. The stay in this ward is causing me more problems than help. The other ward were there is only women is full so it looks like if I am put on waiting list , I'll be able to go home today or tomorrow. Also have to sign a form that I will keep safe and releasing them from any responsibilty in the time it will take to go into the other ward. A lot of stuff! All I know is that I want to go home and not stay another night in a place I feel unsafe. I did have some good sessions with my T though!
