When you’re inpatient
and detoxing from beer
all you want is caffeinated coffee
when you ask if it is
they say, Yeah, it’s regular coffee
but it isn’t

Ya, but I got bigger problems than inpatient coffee lol. You make a good point. What do you think about HIPAA laws and non smoking? I’m mixed about it. It ruins it for the good people. No more outside food and drinks. It is turning these hospitals slowly into prisons especially with all those dangerous people running around.
some are better than others
especially a small town hospital
I got the patch
and they hand delivered my meals
I got Chicken George
I got my own private room and bathroom
they piped music into my room
I don’t mind my information being shared
I’m already with no privacy at all
in my own mind, that is.

Don’t get me wrong. Our hospitals aren’t bad either. Compared to other places, it’s the Taj Mahal of sorts. I too get a patch (if need be) and I get three square meals a day. I just don’t like the fact I can’t smoke anymore, use my cellphone, bring outside food (like In-N-out) and have relatives come visit me in a casual manner.

this one had no WiFi or computer at all
I didn’t get my cell phone either
I was court ordered to go from my parents
I tend to send some erratic emails out
Wi-Fi, use of computers, or cellphones is a no no where I live. It violates hospital policy and HIPPA laws. If things were different (less regulation and safer patients) I would have loved to lived in one while I was very sick and maybe leave during the day/night at will. It’s a pipe dream. Maybe even get a schizophrenic girlfriend lol!
I guess it costs too much money for the government to put mentally ill people in hospitals. It might be considered cruel or mean or whatever. It might be different or hell if I actually went through it. I don’t know. I heard some horror stories but I also heard some cool stories from a former roomate. I’m hoping someday they might bring them back. With my state bringing on online community college, I could have got a college degree in a hospital and just chillax, relax, and retire.

I think you are suffering more than others
don’t be afraid to say so
you manage
that’s all that matters.
Oh, everyone suffers with something, I admit that.
I have a wonderful wife and daughter. I’ve been clean and sober for over a quarter century. My cat has bounced back from her kidney issues. I live in a comfortable home, I drive a decent car, I’m okay financially, I’ve got good food in my fridge and cupboard. I have friends, hobbies, a career, and I even have respect in my community. I’m so good at my job that my company is making sure I can transfer to another branch next year even if it breaks the budget because they don’t want me to go to a competitor.
I really am blessed. Not everything is perfect, but things are by no means horrible. And I can go read the family side of this site every time I need to remind myself of that.
