OK, this isn't easy for me to write bcas I respect police also but this is my situation.

I aparantly unlawfully entered a friends property, that's right a friends property. He wasn't home and I wasn't believed. Anyhow I was put in a mental institution. I preferred the hospital choice over the police station choice thinking I'll be in there for a couple weeks.

3 months later I came out overmedicated feeling like shite...misdiagnosed with a mental illness as a " safety net" seriously!!!!

3 months of my life where I couldn't work, and live my normal life. Inclosed in a small space, going crazy.

Should I just " suck this up". ?

I love the nice & calm, shell, reminds me of the ocean. I spent so much time by the ocean, even used to sleep in a boat which felt like in the ocean. I love riding the ocean and swimming in the ocean, def better than the chlorine from public pools.

In qld the sea was warm. I rem being in a kayak fishing and seeing synchronized fish jump out, in fact I've seen lots of jumping fish.

I'm summer I go to the ocean a lot, its beautiful.

I feel like a sinking ship...but know how strong I felt the other day...I love strength. I love pain. I think heart strength gets you through...ahhh the tears r coming, running, turning into a stream, if only, if only this was just a dream.

Ooh yes I agree the ocean has a calming affect on me also. You can stand there and look out, then watch the waves come rolling in and then out again. Feel the breeze in your hair and feel the sand on your feet. Just beautiful and def calming.

You have slept in a boat... gosh I can almost feel the gentle rocking and that water noise as it touches the sides.

Just let the tears all flow, let them all out. I am virtually holding you.

They stopped:( oceans ,yes I can spend a long time with them. How r u going today shell?

The tears stopped, is that what you are saying??

I am okay today, just sitting here snuggled into the corner of this soft chair.

Sounds cosy. If u need to let anything out, chat, feel free shell to chat away...I'm just laying on the counch with a blanket with the TV

Ah that is kind of you.

I was concerned for you, to be honest.

Blanket sounds very cozy also.

Thanking u, I'm concerned too..my minds been off it for now, its uncomfortable but I'm living it. I'll see what happens mon, hopefully psych can c that I'm normal & get me off these meds, if he's normal that is.

Apparently on a community health order u have to stay on meds. I need to find some way of getting out of this order. I really don't want to suck it up.

You are sounding a little better. Maybe your emotions have settled down some. May you sleep real well tonight. Nice and calm like.....

Hubby is now home from work, so I need to go now.

PS... maybe you should get a large fish tank and put in some beautiful fish. ( that is if you have not got one already)

Shell xx good night hug to you

If you feel you've been misdiagnosed, I think you
