> what i want to know is why? Why can most people go through life without all this? Most people can get through without major breakdowns. most people haven't been in the hospital 5 times. 5 freakin times now! i am just waiting for my ride. and wondering why.Things I liked about the hospital:
1. 3 good meals a day, and snacks. (Better than maybe bothering to open a can of soup and eating it cold, or not eating at all.)
2. Encouragement to try and keep clean.
3. Social interaction. (I don't get any in hermit mode.)
4. A chance to make friends with people who do understand what it's like to need to go to hospital.
5. Ain't nobody telling you to just, "Pull yourself up by your bootstraps." or other fine advice like, "Smile. It'll get better soon."
6. 3 good meals a day. (Hey, I'm a guy, and the stomach counts.)
7. They let me out again.That's just my quick list. Hope you feel better and more stable soon.
