I hated them, they made me cut papers and create stupid art work that looked terrible cause im so bad at art.

It was an encouraged option. I wasnt a fan though, i preferred sitting in the room more staring at the wall!

The first time I tried activities in a hospital I was actually offended. Crayons and coloring books? Like I was a child. Later I just did as everyone else. But I kinda wished they had something for more higher functioning patients.

At first I was kinda flabbergasted that they had things like coloring and board games but I gradually warmed up to them. I almost completed a large puzzle that was like five-hundred pieces. I’m impressed about having done that since I was deep in psychosis at the time.

I actually liked the art classes in the hospital. It made me calm down when I did art.

The only activity I did was art therapy. It didn’t help much though. But I guess I enjoyed it.

Doing art is worse than the reason that you are in there for.

A few hospitals had pool tables or ping-pong tables or both. That was fun.

They had books to read, but other than that, just coloring.
I was to doped up to read much, and coloring got boring quite fast. I probably spent most of my time just staring at the walls. Also, every day we were forced to all stand in a circle and do exercises for 15 minutes.
Not much fun…
