haiku 25/5/16b
1) Mental hospitals are more like dramas/comedies than horror     films. When people think of psych wards they think of criminally     insane people rocking back and forth, talking to their imaginary     friends and throwing chairs. Don't get me wrong, there's some of     those. But most of us just do word searches, color, joke about     serious things. 2) We aren't monsters, we are your brothers, your daughters, your     mother, your co-worker we are just regular people who have lost     our way and need some help finding the path again 3) I am closer to people I knew for 2 weeks than I will ever be with     anyone on the outside. Yes we all call it the outside 4) Sometimes talking to people who understand what you're going     through is more therapeutic than the actual therapy groups. This     is not to say that the doctors there are crap it is just to say that no       matter how much they read and listen they will never truly     understand what it feels like unless they have been there and we     can tell who has been there, they go the extra mile to make us     feel like people 5) It's not a vacation, it's not fun, it's not an escape from the real     world. It is the hardest thing I have ever done. It is work. 6) Everyone in there is a person in unbearable pain but it isn't just a     bunch of people sitting around crying. We go from group to     group and then color and go to bed nothing about it is really fun     but you get used to it 7) The mental hospital is like a camp for empty people, just like a     band camp we can all relate to each other and makes you feel     less alone 8) Getting discharged it a great feeling because you are free, but it     is also completely terrifying, in the hospital it's safe, people get it,     there is always someone to talk to and now you're all alone 9) Just because I've spent 7 and a half weeks in a mental hospital     over 2 stays doesn't mean I am fixed there is no cure for my     illnesses and that's just the way it is 10) We are not who you think, the kindest people I've ever met      were also the ones hurting the most.

The pain Inside my brain Is slowly driving Me insane I still can’t see What leads The way I might be leaving you Today Although I might be gone Please know I won’t be long We’ll meet again one day
