As odd as it might sound...I lose people on the forums and then remember that I am supposed to have replied to them.
It is not that I forget about them at all.
I remember all of you.
I think my brain switches off from overload as a self protection.
I am supposed to be in hospital as advised by my specialist; a few weeks back. So that might help explain where I am at.
I still value the accepting time in hospital concept.
Just right now I know that it will not help me with everything else going on.
Enough Sophia!!!
Did I read that you might be coming out soon or was that @LeChuck..good news.
I hope Eternal, that you are still gaining from your strengthening bond with your doctor who has shared something very private with you to help you gain his trust.
He knows that you are worth that.
Have you been able to find anything interesting to do there yet?
I remember noticing people in art room with ear plugs in... I now realise that is a sign of do not disturb, for some; others do not want to talk; others need to zone out.
One female did talk to me though and opened up about schizophrenia and the ear plugs helped her with the voices. She would listen to music. She was so very brave and had her own business. I formed quite a connection with her and let her know how much she inspired me.
She shared some private desires which we quietly talked about and she thanked me. I just told her that I actually felt honoured that she could share with me.
That was a beautiful experience for me.
Other times I learnt which people to avoid.
We are all different aren't we.
I think that you have mastered that Eternal. It is not easy at first.
I did get to a stage where I needed to stay away from the art room as was told it was high stimulation and that was exacerbating my symptoms.
Wherever you are at. I wish you well. I look forward to ongoing news wherever you are.
Do take care of yourself and take things very slowly and carefully. Everyone seems to be visiting hospital at the moment. I hope that you will be able to continue to cope outside that environment. However if you doo need to go in just know that we will be right here with you should you feel strong enough to converse.
Hi @Sophia1 how are u....i did not know u were thinking (considering) to go to hospital? I feel very moved by ur descriptions with the rooms in the hospital....i can feel what u are saying. The people opening up is very beautiful and means they saw you as someone they liked to have around....testament to u....
I have just arrived home and am safe. A bit fragile and out of routines but i am ok. I feel strong. A bit better than when i left. I asked my neighbour to collect my nail and she is sweet, i told her i was in the hospital. It feels nice to tell some people.
I am watching a show on Netflix called Beef.
I remember the book you were reading Sophia, After You?
I hope that you will be kind to yourself and take things very slowly. It can take a while to get readjusted. Lucky for you that you have such a lovely neighbour.
we have a special invitation just for you when you have spent some recovering at home. Don’t come yet it will be too full on..
Your name is on a special invitation that we haven’t got around to doing yet.. who was meant to do that??
Eternal pleased to hear that you feel better now than when last at home. Great start for your recovery
I finished Before me and loved it. Started after you but so worn out from appointments and trying to keep up with Rock town have been reading less. Will get back into it hopefully tonight
Lovely neighbour.. good for you to have..
life is looking up for you Eternal and you are the one who has got yourself to here
You have come so far
@LeChuck is misbehaving but hopefully following in your footsteps
lovely hearing from you
write when you can
❤️
@tonys Fine by me writing to me here. Let’s check with Eternal though. Will it confuse or distress you Eternal?
