Should I just suck this up?

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 all,
I survived the camping trip. Highlight was swimming in the choppy ocean waters inside the rockpool and being close to nature. I didn't love sleeping in the tent and will choose a cabin next time, much more comfortable.
Getting my four month old regrowth fixed at the hairdressers which will be good and going to a friend's bbq birthday lunch tomorrow.
Things to do which is good...better than stay at home orders I just endured.
Hope you're all well.

Hi all,
Im feeling much better after swimming laps at the local pools, being around friends and family and getting my hair dyed at the hairdressers. It has been four months since I've dyed or cut my hair bcas of lockdown. Feeling spesh and human again with the nails and hair done.
I think I will swim in a few ocean baths/ rockpools since I loved the experience in the salty water. The only bugger is the sun being too strong.
The barbeque was a success and there were ppl to socialise with.
Im glad life feels like it's opening up again.
Halloween tomorrow- better but some choc/ lollies just in case.

Hey magic 🐒 and all ☺
It's such a buzz seeing you feeling good and seeing how lifes turned around for you.
In the time I've known you hun seeing the places you've been not wanting to be here times bought great change.
You've dug deep pulled out and landed in a better space.
I'm looking forward to getting wet. Will be walking in water. A few stops physically to do too much movement that I'd love to but still in the place that gives me the ultimate peace and tranquility.
Way to go warrior. Power to you.
Oh one of the things I have noted to talk to you about is I'm very interested in this Green drink you make up.
Loven the energy bizzo. Are the ingredients expensive?. I think you said it tastes good. Bonus. If you don't mind could I plz have the recipe or if its in Shellys healthy eating thread I'll squiz there. Must pop in and gander anyway.
Love & friendship monks 🤗

Hi awesome people
I too am encouraged by how you appear happy, rejuvenated are bouncing back MM.
Swimming in the choppy ocean water sounds like an adventure. Would keep you feeling alive. I think the swimming in salt water can be a good thing. Maybe it is the natural minerals in it like iodine etc. I like swimming in the ocean baths.
Haircuts can feel refreshing

Morning demonblaster, Shell and all,
The ingredients I use are kale, cucumber, apples, pineapple, celery ( optional) and coconut water. It can be a little pricey to juice but the feeling I get from it is worth it to me.
Yes I think I have come a long way. After getting off that order and drugs I could start to heal and I want to live now- for sure. I have more money now to which means I can do more to feel better.
The salt water is lovely. So rejuvenating. I do breaststroke and swam quite vigorously the last time and it was fun.
It looks like a sunny beautiful day today. Not sure what I'm doing yet but I will work it out.
Ciao !

Hi all,
Its interstate trip time. I'm traveling for the experience and to see a long time friend. Going to put myself up in motels/ hotels and have an adventure.
I don't go back to work for another week so now's a good time. I haven't been to work for over 3 mnths thanks to covid.
If I don't travel I wouldn't know what to do with myself for another week so off I go tomorrow. Wish me luck.
MM 🌺
