My Hospital Stay

My Hospital Stay

So I arrived here at midday today.
Feeling a bit lost. Everything is so ... strange.
Not sure what to do now.
Starting to get a bit anxious. A bit teary. Trying hard not to think, or to feel.
Wishing I had a bourbon or some chips or junk food. Something to keep me busy and not feeling.

Re: My Hospital Stay

Thank you everyone. And thank you @NikNik for taking the time to chat and check on me last night. I did call Lifeline today and they helped.
Think I'll be asleep in an hour.
@Faith-and-Hope - I haven't told zoe any of this. I don't want her worrying at this point in time.
Maybe you could gently tell her in a few days, if I haven't contacted her yet. Thanks.

Re: My Hospital Stay

Wow @utopia that is great! And this time you know from the outset that you have 14 days. Your last hospital admission was mostly wondering if you were still going to tbe there the next day and the fright of being sent home too soon. Hopefully this admission helps you a lot more.
Well done on pushing for what you need, shows great strength and courage.
take care

Re: My Hospital Stay

Hi @utopia that's excellent news. You know yourself better than anyone else and being safe and cared for is your number one priority at the moment. Take the time to get well and recover.

Re: My Hospital Stay

Hi Outlander, Sahara, Faith-and-Hope,
@utopia, I'm so disappointed you are not getting the hospital discharge community support you need. They need some sort of in between, a halfway house or rehab or something. Your admission should carry some weight with Centrelink - if you could make an apt with a Centrelink social worker face to face they have always helped me. Bypass the faulty automated systems. So stressful! its not rocket science to know they're doing harm to a lot of people with MI. Trouble is, were all guilty of fraud and have to prove ourselves innocents, wish we didn't need them.

Try not to sleep too much, go for little walks, get some sunshine, ring a friend, be kind to yourself Utopia🌷 🙏
