Inpatient

Last night I tried to kill myself. Tonight, I am spending my first night at an inpatient ward. Last night I gave up all hope and tried to cut my wrists. I failed and I wish that I hadn't. I don't want to be alive today and I wish I had died last night like I was meant to but here I am. They admitted me to the ward and told me about allllll the shrinks that'll be coming to see me. They went through my things and took anything 'dangerous,' including my laptop charger, my glass makeup bottles, and my lace-up shoes. They didn't notice a safety pin at the bottom of my bag which I didn't know was in there either, but I found it tonight and scraped up my arms as much as I could with a dull safety pin. My arms sting a little bit now which is kind of satisfying but it's still not good enough since there was barely any blood. I wish I had succeeded last night. And if not that, I at least wish I had my blades. I wonder if I can get some in somehow.

First of all I'm glad your not dead.
Let's be real they might not have pizza on the other side and then you can't get back.
Secondly what if you are cool and someone I want to talk to? Don't bail on me already I haven't even met you.
Third...I don't know, ifeltcrazy today too and didn't want to die but kind of wanted something. So, hang in there RIGHT NOW. Just survive NOW and maybe they can help you make it better. OK, just give yourself a minute, please?

Thanks so much man. Honestly I got pizza in my hospital room last night and I was just a little glad I was still around to taste it. Damn that stuff's good. If you wanna talk just let me know, I'd totally be up for it.

Yeah. I'm about a fillion years older than you, but pizza makes us all one.
I'm glad you are still around to enjoy it. How are you doing? Are yoiu still in or back home?

I'm still in, I really have no idea when I'll be leaving but judging by how it's been going I doubt I'll be out any time soon. I'm not doing super great but at least I came out to my mom today. She called me a burden and blamed me for what happened with my dad but I don't feel obligated to tiptoe around her anymore now that I've done my best to come out to her. How're you?
