I think hanging out with the oldies might be nice - I hang out with older people all day at work (in a nursing home) and I swear it's the only thing that keeps me going right now!

Hi @Former-Member

 

Hanging out with the oldies can be fantastic

Re: My Hospital Stay

Part 3
Day 3 - Friday
Got moved to a different unit in the hospital. So out of the over 65's.
My psychiatrist has worked a miracle. I'm in a single room!!! - workcover doesn't allow single rooms for their patients. So this Lady Psychiatrist has pulled some favours or something.
I'm now on a half dose of the anti-psychotic. The lowest dose possible & on a new AD. By 1pm - I was feeling really doped - so I thought I'd lie down and have a nap. Woke at 7.20pm. Raced to the dining room. Closes at 7.30. No dinners left - but grabbed some premade sandwiches.
Chain smoked. As smoko courtyard closes after 8pm.
Watching a silly movie and starting to feel a bit dopey again. So hopefully it'll be asleep before midnight. Still have a prn sleeper if I need it.
I cried when I went into my new room. It reminds me id a nuns cell - very small. Probably oldest part of this hospital. But I went to the window - pulled the curtains apart & I had a view. Greenery. Different sized plants. Different shades of green. Different shapes of leaves. And I cried and cried. Good tears. Relief.
I'll spend the weekend still relaxing - letting mybrain chill. Then the work begins.

Re: My Hospital Stay

My post @Zoe7 - took me a long time to write. These slow you down / give your brain a break meds - make it very hard to type. Very slow. And most likely boring as. I can feel my meds slowing down my brain right this minute.
I hope you are traveling as well as you can and you are finding more moments of calm within your days.
I'll look through your thread over the weekend. We are due a long chat / harmless gossip/ AWE NUTS! moments. I miss them. But just can't physically or mentally do it now.
Sending you a comforting hug. And as much love as your heart can take. ♥♥♥♥♥
Dreamless peaceful sleep to you

Re: My Hospital Stay

When we are both a little more able to cope with 'life' I am sure we will keep the mods on their toes catching up @utopia for now we both know that it is a difficult time for each other and we don't need to be 'talking' to know how much love we have for each other and how blessed we are to be in each other's lives - distance and time are no barriers to friendship my beautiful cocky friend  Heart
