So, again, continuing where I left off with the last post: So, after publishing the last post, I thought about my conversation with the “second opinion” or “third party evaluation.” If this psychiatrist was actually evaluating me as someone who isn’t part of the ward, why would this psychiatrist give me an already prepared, custom, discharge requirements list. This “second opinion” should not even include any suggestions on how I should go about my stay, and should only have concern with the diagnosis. So, intuitively, I already felt like this was sketchy, but now with some reasoning, I can demonstrate … Read the rest

So, again, continuing where I left off with the last post: So, after talking with the doctor, outside of the scheduled meeting, I wanted to be respectful and polite, but I also had to express my disapproval of the mishandled situation, and before I finished voicing my disapproval, I realized after the fact that I gave her my back; like it took me longer to voice my disapproval than it took me to stand up and walk way; bad timing I guess, but it was also similar to the way she gave me her back, after approaching me, when she … Read the rest

So, continuing where I left off with the last post: I finished my dinner before I was done with the paperwork, some of which were more important than the rest, so once I finished the essential paperwork, I was told I could finish the rest of the paperwork in the lounge area.
It’s kind of difficult for me to recall every single moment at the hospital, but luckily, I started taking notes the following morning, which I’ll call Day #2. So the daily routine involves community meetings, one in the morning and one at night, where we talk about stuff … Read the rest

So, I’ve been away from the Internet for over a week. How did this all start? Well, let me start with the survey I asked to fill out a couple of Tuesdays ago. I asked the teacher to fill out a quality of life survey, and somehow, even before I asked, he already knew that I wanted to. After asking, I was told the survey was scheduled to take place on Monday; it was a Friday. So on that Monday, I didn’t take it upon myself to ask about the survey, because it’s supposed to be scheduled, and once class … Read the rest
