Re: work experience
good luck with the interview and potentially the work experience placements - they both sound like amazing opportunities 
Re: im on a section 5.2 rn 😖
i'm sorry to hear about all this @eylah - i can't imagine how it must feel for you at the moment. you've been so brave and strong (even if it doesn't feel like it to you).
as hard as it seems the nurses will want what's best for you so you can get better. i know its hard but it won't be forever.
keep being strong and sending you endless amounts of hugs

Re: im on a section 5.2 rn 😖
your experience will depend on which psychiatric hospital you go to so i hope youll go to a good one. being under section 2 sucks as your rights change to medication and treatment but its there so that you can get better.
Re: im on a section 5.2 rn 😖
It's sounding so tough right now @eylah being sectioned and not wanting this to happen. It's so hard when things feel out of our control. How are you feeling at the moment? And how are you finding the support from the hospital staff?
I was looking through Mind's website and came across some really helpful information about the different types of sections that you might want to read to find out a bit more about what's happening. They also have some information about your rights when you've been sectioned too.
We're here for you @eylah. You're being so brave. Keep going and remember how strong you are

Re: Aerial hoop and silks
Omg wow @Rose113 that's amazing!!!!! Look at you go. Aerial classes look so so fun to do. I bet it takes a lot of strength as well to do. I remember always wanting to have a go at doing aerial skills.
