I was incredibly depressed at 24.
I left an unhealthy relationship With the clothes on my back. I was going to kill myself. I stopped my meds. I ate very little for weeks Going on months. Making plans to.... I won't say what I planned. I wound up in rehab. The first night a nurse said: Don't think you are Getting out of here anytime soon. It was a threat. I had written a scathing letter To a nurse prior to my stay. I would say I responded With a bit more than reasonable force. I wasn't worried about My five a day, fibre intake As I was going to die anyway. I had to get a suppository After begging the staff To get me something. They were convinced I did Not need anything and It was "women's troubles." I didn't blow up. I calmly went back and forth To the nurses station until They issued me something. The nurse said it was runny As a tiny bit was leaking. That was because it Had nowhere to go and was blocked up. It was really distressing. The amount of times I had to relive that experience afterwards in my brain and at leisure, Was really disheartening. I fell into drinking on being discharged And it happened once more. They bumped a tablet up That had a side effect of constipation And I was still Depressed off my *****. Thankfully my body recovered. It never happened again. For six months I sat, Not wanting to be seen outwith That god awful place. Taking half a senna every Two or three days and then none. The hospital meals are small And I could not function on Risperidone. The meals are fine And cooked fresh in the kitchens that day. They have to be fresh. It's hard to keep one's cool when A man who has downloaded Indecent images of minors Tries to sit next to you And you cannot say anything Because there is a danger that the nurses Think you are having a funny turn And tell the doctors Or record something in your notes That may keep you In hospital longer.
