    Home

    This is a continuation from my previous thread here

    Firstly I would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who has supported me and sent me letters and presents while I've been hospital. I don't know where I'd be without my friends and your support is very much appreciated.

    Sorry I went quiet suddenly but my internet data card was confiscated and I had no way of getting online. The discovery that I was using it also meant my obs were increased and as well as being on one to one this was increased from 'within eye sight' to 'within arm's length'. The past week in hospital has been unbearable.

    BUT I am now home

    It has been an anxiety provoking and worrying day because I discharged myself. I came home on escorted home leave and said I wasn't going back. At first it seemed as if everything was fine and my escort returned to the hospital without me but this evening the police came round to check I was safe. I hope this is the last I hear of it now.

    I am so relieved to be at home finally. I hated every second I was in that hospital. It really has been one of the worst experiences of my life.

    Paddie - You are a star hun! You did so well on your trip to London. Thanks for your phone calls too.

    Panic attacks started in 1992. 1998 i became agoraphobic which lead into being room bound. Couldn't even get upstairs. 2002 i started getting better, able to drive and work. 2005 i became house bound again. 2009 i have been making SLOW progress, still not able to go anywhere alone, but my journeys are getting longer. No where near 'normal' but at least i can go out.

    Thanks Nic, Ray, Bluebell, Debra and Piglet

    Piglet:

    Karen you may need to fill in few blanks here lovie - are they now satisfied with your health then and what support is in place now you are at home????
    I am not sure they are satisfied with my health, or rather with my weight, but I am now at a healthier BMI and at a level where they cannot insist I stay in hospital. I don't think they are happy that I discharged myself but they cannot do anything about it.

    The hospital did call the police to report that I hadn't returned to hospital and I had a visit from some police officers. However, they could see I was fine and in no danger and so they left saying that the person who had escorted me home today was trying to cover herself. It is either that or the hospital are covering their backs.

    As for support, I don't know yet. I really don't want to see my doctor regularly anymore and I certainly don't want to see the CMHT but I'll have to see if anyone insists on it. If I am well enough to leave hospital I doubt I really need their intervention at all.

    I will be seeing my CBT therapist again as soon as I can arrange it.

    Nic - Thanks for replying. I realise people are concerned about me and I feel sorry that I've lost friends and some people's belief and faith in me after this last admission. I'll forever feel sad about that.
