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 magic Sleepy,
We've been in lockdown for months.
The weather has been pretty nice here but I'm someone that likes to be out and about so lockdown is tricky. I'm doing ok though. You guys have been through hell in my opinion. So many lockdowns.
A support worker would be a good job. I suppose I already sort of am I to a friend of mine who has special needs. I care for my grandmother as well.
I made another batch of my green juice and enjoyed it immensely. It just makes me feel so good and energized.
Ive saved a little bit of money through lockdown. Looked at some rentals but still at home...mum and I get on each other's nerves. I can't seem to get anything right and I'm done at times then look at alternative places to live. I just want peace.

Hey magical one,
Have u found any fun stuff to do outside with us restrictiins? It can be challenging to get out and about with so many rules. Lots of adjustment
I can definitely appreciate the benefits of living at home and saving up. I myself did that when I was feeling really confused where to live and stayed there for a bit. My dad was unmanageable but I struggled to afford my own place. I hope u and Ur mom are okay and u feel safe there. X

Hi Sleepy,
We have our ups and downs but mostly it's ok. I could move out but I'd have a lot less money and it's a big bold move....just sitting on the fence.
I have found things to do like go to different parks, walk around, grocery shopping, baking, visiting grandma...etc.
Ive been for a walk today and just sitting around at the moment though.

I'm writing to yall from my couch during these stay at home orders. Lucky the pools and parks are still open and I can walk around the streets. Oh, and I mustn't forget still visit the supermarket. Not long to go now before things start opening up again.
I stayed home the whole of yesterday which was tricky and I slept away some of it to get through it.
Its going to be a gorgeous day today and I'll probably get out for a walk or swim or both.
Im really looking forward to getting away somewhere when things start opening back up, camping perhaps by the ocean.

Hello lovely Magic....🤗.
I love the idea of camping by the ocean...Do you go alone or take someone with you?..
It’s okay to be on the couch and sleep away some of your day...doing so is caring for yourself....
The days seem much longer with the new hours for daylight saving...I prefer the shorter days of winter..not much daylight hours to get through...
Sending you my love, care and hugs..beautiful Magic warrior ..
Grandy..

Morning Shell, Grandy and all,
Yes, I'm really looking forward to camping by the ocean when we open up I might go alone actually, and hopefully meet some decent ppl while I'm out.
Sleeping the day away is ok I guess when there's not much to do but I do prefer the later. The stay at home orders coming to an end on the 11th so lots to look forward to then like going to the hairdresser, shopping centre, trips etc, etc.
Ive done quite a lot of online shopping so I've been eagerly awaiting my parcels.
How is everyone going?

Hi all,
There aren't many faithful men out there in my opinion. They don't intend to be faithful or they blur the lines within their relationship or marriage.
That's been my experience which is sad.
On a brighter note stay at home orders have been lifted and life has re-opened. QR codes are a pain but we can leave the house and do a lot more.
Ive done some shopping.

Hi all,
Went to the beach today & got my nails done shallac!
First time I've travelled a fair distance in a while bcas of the restrictions. Still having to wear masks indoors and having to use those codes everywhere you go.
Anyhow it was good to get out a bit.
