So I Spent The Last Couple Days In A Psych Ward...

[theryno665]

So, what'd I miss?

Seriously, I didn't even realize there was a PPV on.

[kingfeurio]

I hope you are doing okay now.

[flatsdomino]

CM Punk is gonna be spending a lot more time at the table in your sig from now on, possibly

[Non Banjoble Tokens]

Been there, done that. Cept it was more like weeks instead of days. But anyway, you missed this fantastic thread I made! Make sure to spread the word to all of your female friends!

[The Rager (Cole Miner)]

CM Punk announced NXT and will be doing so next week as well.

[Gerard Gerard]

There's only so many place this conversation can go before someone outright asks this:

Hmmkay, what for?

[bob]

Michael Vick will be starting for the Eagles this week

[Reno]

Jim Ross and Laycool spearheaded the counter attack against the nexus. Cleansing WWE of their taint

[darthalexander]

The title of this thread sounds like a perfect title for a country song. Not to sound flippant about it, but it'd fit nicely.

Well, the NHL pre-season started. The new fall shows started.

[Madman Szalinski]

Mike Enos went to jail. Lindsay Lohan is going to be in a movie written, directed, and starring Vince Offer the Shamwow guy.

Oh, and I was there for a week back in May/June, but nobody noticed.

[Paul]

Did Scott Hall throw a toothpick at you at random?

[Bake Or Die]

Toledo's still boring

[YAKMAN is ICHIBAN]

I've been there as well, but only for 24 hours. I would dread any more than that.

Hmmkay, what for?

Depression. I've been struggling with finding the right medication and all that for months. Then last week, I got sick from some food and somehow that triggered off a major bout of depression that resulted in me not going into work for about a week. Then Sunday my friends admitted me somewhere and I was there from Sunday until yesterday. Got some new meds and hopefully things will go smoothly from here on out.

Michael Vick will be starting for the Eagles this week

This was one of the few things I actually heard. When I started out in one ward, pretty much all that I watched was Sportscenter or The Price Is Right and saw Vick playing. I don't even like sports so it's kinda odd that I know this. Then when I was moved up to a "higher functionality" ward (meaning people that don't have hallucinations or talk to themselves), all I really watched was VH1 or Law and Order marathons. So yeah, it was kinda boring.

I don't even watch wrestling with any regularity anymore but I still follow it. But being away from everything, especially the Internet, made me feel so out of it when I came back. I still don't know who won at the PPV other than Daniel Bryan. And hearing CM Punk on commentary is awesome. I have an IWA-MS event (the one with Samoa Joe vs Necro Butcher) and Punk's commentary is the best thing on it.

Toledo's still boring

I hear that. The weird thing was I was admitted to St. Charles and I didn't know that place even existed. I rarely go downtown so when the transport was taking me across the bridge, I was wondering what was up. My parents want me to move back home and I've thought about it a lot but my parents live in a place that's even more boring than Toledo. All I would have there is my family. Here, at least I have friends, a job and maybe more opportunity for a better job (which I'm still looking for after 3 years). I'm going to give Toledo another chance but if I get depressed like that again, I'll probably move back home.

Thanks for listening guys. It helps to get some of this off my chest. Being there wasn't as bad as I thought it would be but I still felt lonely (one of my biggest problems with my depression) being away from everyone and cut off from the outside world with the only outlet being the TV. I got to meet some good people that were struggling along with me. I guess what I want to say is if you're down and need to go to a place like this, don't hesitate. If you feel you need to go, then you probably do need to go. And it's not like they'll put you in a straightjacket and toss you in a padded room. You won't be considered crazy. Though I did feel like I was going stir-crazy being cooped up in there. I was only there for less than 5 days and I felt the need to bust out. And I was there shorter than most of the other people there. So don't be ashamed if you need to go somewhere like that.

I don't usually get this personal here, but I have to ask. I've considered checking myself in before but always conclude that the isolation is actually going to make me feel worse. I tend to do things, anything to keep me busy to take my mind off the depression. Checking myself in to inpatient care would make me dwell on it. But it's there to help. I know everyone's different, but I'm curious about your experience. You don't have to go in to alot of detail if it's too personal. I just want to know if you think it helped.

That's a very good thing to think about. Oddly enough, it was something I didn't think about until I was already there. For the past few weeks (or even months) I spent most of my time in bed and didn't talk to anybody. I felt alone, and I hated that feeling. Then I went to inpatient and found myself doing the exact same thing. Only this time, I really was detached from all the people I love, except for an hour for visiting. And whenever I wasn't in a group session, I mostly just laid in bed since I didn't have anything else to do. But I guess it reminded me that once I got out, then I really did have the freedom to do what I wanted. I just need to find out what that is.

So there is a good side and a bad side. Yeah, you'll be locked in for a few days but you're still getting help. But then you really do feel alone at times there, even though there are other people probably going through the same thing you are. I guess it's all about how badly you need the help and what kind of help you truly need.

As far as who won at the PPV...

McCool won the unified Diva's championship
Kane retained
Bryan won the US championship
Ziggler retained
Randy Orton won the WWE title
Big Show won
Cody Rhodes & Drew McIntyre won the tag titles

And I agree about Toledo being boring. I mean I live with my 62 year old aunt & I don't drive so the only time I get out is when she wants to go somewhere which is never very far. On top of that she's a conservative pr**k so she's uptight about me having anyone over.(God I need to make some friends.) But yeah like you said you have a job here & friends,etc so give it another go.
