Had to go away for a while. Am doing pretty good now. Changed up my meds. Judge finally decided I was well enough to be let out.
Has anyone else in this group had to go though this?

Yes, I went through that years ago before I got on the best meds.

It's great to see you back and I'm glad that you're doing well... I have had a couple of hospital stays for a few weeks that have helped a great deal... Big hug...xo

I was in one phosp for 3 months. I felt so much better when I got out.
Even though sometimes it doesn't feel like the hospitalization is doing any good, it really does help.

Had to do this a number of times and every time I learned something and made a bigger step towards recovery...

I found the right combination of meds, sleep hours needed, and learned to pay attention to my nutrition all of which helped me to get better

    Woke up feeling very emotional and about to clock in at my place of employment. And can't place it all in writing but not been a good experience with my store manager or his boss. Defamation of my character is a concern. I've been losing appetite and weight. Trying to perform at work to keep myself from hospitalization as a result of toxic masculinity.
