Hey guys, as above thoughts? i made a few but have lost contact with them now
No.
I have never made a friend in the hospital,
Either I was too sick or there was no one cool.
Just the one friend - who was married to a girl i went to school with. Ive moved away since years ago - and im not one for looking on facebook for people i knew.
It was in what i call my āEupd daysā - and im a different person now, so dont really wanna revisit the past with people i knew.
Oh yeah I met a girl named bunni we kissed and I still think of her sweet fragrance. And I met a cool guy too we watched simpsons together.
Yes because I donāt know where to meet people really. And the hospital and IOP is any easy place to meet ppl u relate with. Although usually the relationships donāt turn out to much ill say this
I met my best friend in a hospital. I didnāt like him much there. Then I met him again somewhere else twice and we became friends eventually. I met another friend in my recent stay I text with him still heās cool.
I also met up with two woman individually from different stays although we didnāt hang out many times. The idea of that we met in the hospital and we may both be crazy ruined one of the relationships. And the other we just fell apart due to life going different ways.
Although itās cool to text with ppl from there
I donāt think ur supposed to meet w/ ppl from the hospital
I pretty much kept to myself the three times Iāve been in-patient.
I do remember this guy that had wild tattoos all over his arms of cartoon characters, and he was telling me the stories behind each one.
And the quiet girl who asked me if she could read me some of her poetry. It was pretty religious in context, but I listened anyways. Actually saw her two of the times I was in hospital.
And this girl I worked with years ago was also there while I was thereā¦ I was deep in psychosis at the time, so we really didnāt say much to each other during our stay.
ā¦I wonder how theyāre all doing these days.
I met a few friends.
I had a in hospital āgirlfriendā who was older than me.
Lost contact with everyone on the outside.
There,you find a place for āgirlfriendsā ,playboy!
Haā¦ it was an innocent friendship.
She had a crush on me.
But I mainly hung out with her.
I tried calling her when I got out but there was no answer.
I lost touch with her.
I donāt know about friends who are MI.
All seem to vanish after some time out of the blue.
They are not reliable.
I have really bad expirience.
There was a group of us who were young/pre middle aged adults whoād often be inpatients at the same time .We tended to gravitate to each other. Outside of hospital I had little contact with them. There was one of them Iād occasionally come across in the high street. Iād say āhelloā. That was about it.
i had 2 friends from the 2 times i was psych ward and with one i lost all contact and one i hear still regularly.
No. I keep to my self and donāt talk to anyone.
I make acquaintances at the hospital, I try not to make them friends.
When Iāve been in the hospital, Iāve been in the wing for suicidal people with psychosis.
My heart canāt take losing another friend to suicide. In 2019 I lost three.
Same here.
The second time I was admitted in 2013, the fellow detainees were very nice people, and they made the experience more than bearable.
Perhaps a dozen hospitalisations since, and I can tell you that was a fluke
I hated every other time beyond words.
Thankfully my new case manager isnāt as emotional as my old one, who used to get me locked up all the time for very little.
Think my last visit I was there for a day voluntarily and discharged myself against medical advice
I talked to everyone there! It was great! We all gathered in the smoking area and bitched about the doctors and other stuff, I actually really enjoyed the hospital the times I wasnāt hearing voices. Obviously didnāt want to be there but was better than being on the outside at the time and I was safe there. Ha until I jumped on a plane to London, voices were convincing to say the least. Overall it was a very cool place with lots of nice people who were very real compared to other people you meet in life
They banned smoking in mental hospitals here in 2017 I think
Honestly a cruel thing to do when a lot of the patients smoke .
Man thatās sac religious so many convos over people smoking
I really didnāt make friends in the hospital.
I was in my head most of the time and they had their own thing going on.
I know right!
Can tell you the thought of not being able to smoke is a deterrent for me ever going voluntary again
