Breakfast: Boysenberry yogurt, Lunch: Pasta primavera and watermelon. My mother just called, she wasn't supposed to. We talked about my sister, my animals, her work and my meds, the hospital, my grandfather and my aunt. Among other things. I told her about OA, she didn't comment. I want to go to the Lithium awareness rehab. workshop but OA's at 7:30pm and this is at 7:00pm. She's glad I have mark to call and talk to even though I know she wishes it was her. I almost guaranteed that I'd be discharged Thursday. I don't know if she's thinking about the money or me. She doesn't let on over the phone. I just talked to the meds guy and he said I should go to the lithium awareness thing so I'll hang around there from 7:00-7:25 then get the lady who's going with me and we'll go down to that. I think I'm gonna ask my new pdoc (when I see him in June) about taking me off the lithium because the side effects make walking and talking to people difficult (not at the same time of course) My eyes are all weird, I can't focus on the person talking to me, I don't even know how to describe it, and my joints are a mess. I really hope OA goes well tonight. It's about my last great hope. If not, I'm really enjoying being hungry and I know I'll continue this way when I leave. at the moment, they don't check my food but if they weigh me again they might start, or I'll just get lectured by my current pdoc, whenever he comes back--today or tomorrow. It's not that I don't want to see my therapist, I just want to wait until I have good news to report. OA will have to be my good news. I think your roommate here plays a large part in the length of your recovery. If they're happy and upbeat and you hang around them then it will be quicker but if they're suicidal (and in this unit instead of pac where they should be) then it's gonna bring you down and it's gonna take a longer time to recover. I try to be upbeat but I'm not happy. neither i or my current roommate are suicidal, and we're both upbeat so I think my recovery _is_ actually going faster. She's probably leaving today though and i'm afraid i'll either not get a roommate or she'll be some freak from another planet. maybe some really ugly girl my age who's never been here before so I can show her the ropes. it's beautiful outside but I don't feel like going outside. I'll see about it later, my whole body aches, a walk will do me good. gilmore girls may be on, if i'm alone i can watch it tonight..well, the second half anyhow.
