Hey,
It's been 3 years since my manic episode resulting in a section. Main reason I hate the 14th Feb so much. I feel odd. Is it weird i sorta miss being ill? I mean I'm happy to be stable but I miss having a mental health team and people taking care of me.I
Eurghhhhh. Wish this day would end already. I feel so lonely.

But think of it in a positive way you came out the other side fighting !
Stay Strong ❤️
i totally get you. its been 2 years since i was sectioned for a while. sometimes it is what you need in that moment - lots of care and someone to take over our life when things are overwhelming and need a break from life and community. Thinking about hospitals trigger me cause apart from fact it reminds me of when i was really ill - part of it is cause sometimes i want that help now - as sometimes i feel out of control and lonely and cant handle being in the "real" world. Still sometimes miss it & the staff. but i remind myself being in hospital isnt a life- only good short term and they dont keep people in there forever. We can now only focus on all of the positive stuff of now. and how incontrol you are now. compared to then.
we all care about you
