Should I just suck this up?

[monkey_magic]

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". ?

Hi everyone,

Thankyou for thinking of me and the responses.

Well, isn't this lockdown fun, not!

Im really just trying to get through it.

Stalled on my weight loss as exercise has been very limited.

Cant wait for things to change.

Hope you're all hanging in there as best as you can.

Love me 💞🌺

Hi everyone,

Well....I've done a 180°.

Im actually taking medication bcas I was feeling not at all like myself during harsh lockdown and it's actually helping and I'm feeling like myself. There r some side effects but I do feel better.

I feel like I was given too much too soon in the past and I still have my leg pain and other things and I can't believe I'm on a little something something but I am.

Im nourishing my body with the freshest and best produce known to man and even though I've been on a weight loss stall it's starting to come off again.

Ive been staying at home for months because of the stay at home orders and it's taken it's toll but I can say my head is above water and medication is helping. I know it's a double edge sword but these conditions I'm living in are nothing I've experienced before.

Hope you guys are doing ok.

Magic warrior 🐒 hi everyone ☺

Good on you girl! Especially that it's lifting your spirits.
Something to keep in mind huns is it doesnt have to be permanent.
Sounds like good self care.
Also it's a different medication I assume and your choice. A big difference.

Sux big that it's still affecting you though.
Let's hope in time maybe gently easing into excercise it'll improve. Be careful lovey you don't want anymore damage to an already weakened area which you'd probably be aware of.

Yes lockdowns hard on many and for you with your travel bug and loving being out and about it'd affect you harshly I'd imagine.

Some people it hasn't changed their lives and some like Grandy and a friend like it which I find sad that they're ok with.

I probs told you along the way I avoid but do take meds if I have to.
I'm off all mh meds which is good. Still really hard yakka but not like it use to be.
We strengthen with knowledge and practice. Here's a major support.

I'm guessing your covid results were good. Hope so hun. Scary I bet not knowing eh.

Sounds awesome you're back on the healthy darl good girl.  I am doing well so far with the weight loss. Still having breaks.

It's warming seeing people lifting up esp when they've been so low.

Keep goin warrior that's what we need to do to enjoy and unlock good times in our unknown futures.

I hold a lot of faith in our medical brilliant minds that in time the dust will settle and we can all work towards rebuilding. We need light to work towards for better times.

Go easy magic 🐒 sending love friendship and support.

Hi Mm, glad to hear u feel better ans are managing these lockdowns. It c an been hard these times so I am so glad to hear Ur doing okay there. I have awful memories of men's taken without informed consent, with Ur own consent sounds different

[Guest_1055]

Ah hi MM, it is good to see you. Thankyou for keeping us updated a bit on how you are going.

It's great you are eating fresh nourishing foods. I have been experimenting with fresh salads.

Glad you are feeling better MM, you do sound a little different though. Maybe behind your words. Could be my own imagination.

Hi everyone!!!

Bunny- a huge congratulations on the your health journey. I have also lost some weight. It's good to hear you're off meds and climbing to better mental health, you're amazing! Yes, it's sad that ppl can get used to isolation since we are sociable creatures. From experience it solitude can also mean safety for those who used to have unsafe lives...sometimes it's a comfort other times a drag.

I do a little exercise with light weights at home and walk a little. I'm unfit though. You're still the caring DB we all know and love.

Sleepy many many of us who have been through the system don't consent. It's so rude huh. It's traumatizing for some, can be dehumanizing as well. I believe we should have some choice in the system but unfortunately they still medicate all. I'm interested in reading this book that was recommended about the system, cant remember the name but I'm interested to learn more.

Hi 🐚 Shell,

Salads huh, awesome. I lost loads of weight eating different salads.

I feel different. Tested negative to covid three times and had to spend two weeks in quarantine bcas I was a close contact. It was stressful and tough. Hope you're ok.

I did eat a lot. Maintained most of my weight loss which was great and now in intuitively and consciously back in control and losing another chunk. Bit by bit I will get there and in total lose a bunch!

Hi all,

I'm doing quite well & finding things to do during a long lockdown. Started coming up with a book to write about my journey and thinking about how I can use my negative life experiences for good.

The weather's been nice and I've been going on short walks bcas of my nerve pain and eating well. I made a tub of green juice from cucumber, apple, pineapple, kale and coconut juice and I feel so so alive, and energetic. Eating well is living well and boy is there a big difference. I'm still partial to junk foods so I'm no Saint their either.

Ive been getting a bit creative and working out whether or not I want to work from home.

How are you all going?

[Guest_1643]

HI MM,

It is a bit rude.... I have a lot of bad memories of feeling dismissed and put down when i said I preferred not to take medication!! One dr wrote a whole ltter about me stating that she thought XYZ med would be good, noted I'd never even tried it etc and why was I oppositional. By the way, I had tried it... she was not even factually correct. Rude. Very.

Which book was that which yu thought might be interesting on the topic?

The walks sound good.... do you find it not possible to do long walks with the nerve pain? I don't like long walks either, it is hard for me with social anxiety.

Good luck on ur creative projects, they can be so fun during lockdown. Hope ur feeling good, you sound like ur moving forward and through all that you have faced and overcome. hugs!
