Hi @utopia - I took this picture last year on a beach with no one else around and I like to look at it in stressful times. It reminds me that no matter what happens there will still be a sunrise and I'm ultimately in control of my own mind. You have lots of support here - just ask. We're all here for you.....

Thanks @Faith-and-Hope.
Thank you @oceangirl. That image is a place I would be happy to travel to.
@Former-Member. Thank you for sharing your beautiful photo and what it represents for you.
I am feeling better about going home tomorrow. And I love watching the sunrise and sunset from my backyard.

Day 10 - part 2.
So it's the night before I leave hospital. I remember at this point when I was in hospital last year - that I was freaking out and having anxiety attacks and needed a very high dosage of a prn to calm me down.
I haven't felt that at all today.
There is some fear, some trepidation about how I will go at home. That - will I fall back into old patterns - can I keep this new sleep routine - will I find the boredom at home to hard - etc.
But even though I have those thoughts - they aren't too strong - I can cope with them.
I have left a message on my psychologists ph - to say I'm coming home tomorrow and could he please fit me in for a visit - so I have some type of psych support the first week.
I plan to contact a mental health support and social group - GROW -who are in a town near me & at least talk to them and find out mire about the group - to see if it is something that I would be comfortable with.
I expect there may be a few up and down roller coaster emotions tomorrow and over the next few weeks, while I try and implement some self care tools that will keep leading me to a better outlook and to a healthier life.
So, on this more positive post - I say goodnight. As I snuggle down and sleep in this bed for the last time.
A peaceful sleep for all. ♥♥
