Vengeance

    Vengeance is not strength. Forgiveness is strength. I need to forgive. I can't forget, though. I have to remember in order to make sure I don't repeat the past. 

    I cant keep going back to the hospital. I'm legit worried what they might do. I need to see beyond. I need to decrease the darkness. I need to understand what I CAN do. I keep fading out. And its wearing on people. I need to understand better. I'm getting too focused on the dark. This is getting confusing.

    The hospital needs to try harder to coordinate care. They didn't even try.

    I feel like I need to set more realistic expectations. Remind people that whatever you call what I have, with the number of hospitals I've been to, there's something seriously wrong. They just don't agree on what it is. Some call it cPTSD, others DID, some insist that they don't believe in either and they want to call it bipolar. But whatever you do or do not call it, it's a serious problem. 

    I keep trying to think that people want to help. But most of them just want to bury it. They find it amusing at first, kinda novel, then they hate it and want to bury it. 

    Now I'm no longer Prichard's demon, I'm my families' demon. The one they couldn't fix. There's simply not enough metaphors for this.

    They say the definition of insanity (or is it stupidity?) is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. I keep going to the hospital expecting different results. It doesn't make sense.

    I can't blame my families. I have to do this independently. Not rely on the hospital so much. Give them some breathing room. 

    They did such a good job the time before last. I have to hold that in my memory. Try to keep it fresh. I have to hold onto the good. They worked so hard. Elle was amazing. She always looked out for me. I have to remember the good eggs. There's so many good eggs. I have to remember them. But I can't rely on them too much. 

Tinking...

Still berry frustrated, but Spidey try see di lighter side...

SPIDEY DUDENT KNEAD TO PROVE ENNYTING TO DI HOSPITALS! Spidey's a berry nice arachnid. Bedder be nice to Spidey.

    I don't know what people think. I don't know exactly how they think my brain or my body works. I know I've spent a lot of time in hospitals. If institutionalization still existed, my life would be a case study. If you think I'm a carefree, party person, think again. That's not who I am. I did try. Multiple careers. Bad communication. I tend to collect jackals. The ones that feed on vigilante justice. I've learned to keep my distance.

Dey say dis is a long-term ting. No magical fixes, dey tell Spidey. Spidey get caught up in di details.

Spidey

    I think that teaching people that they are dangerous is a mistake. I'm not actually dangerous. I'm just angry and I have problems with attention and some hallucinations. I think focusing on one member of a family as "broken" and as the "troublemaker" is a mistake. Such actions feed flames. Where is the humility and forgiveness? Why do we worship at the altar of legalized drugs? 

    I think I'm getting lost trying to understand this on my own. I think I'm stuck. I think there are other people that are part of the problem. And you can't cure half a disease. But maybe someone is reading this. Someone who can cure the other parts. Or at least keep them out of my life. I'm just having trouble focusing on real life. One person can only understand so much about the healthcare system. There's too many moving parts. 

Hatred

Dear Elle,

    It's too bad you weren't there. I don't know what they have told you. I don't know what you believe. But they are filling my head with hatred and bullshit. Maybe they think I deserve it. Maybe they think they are teaching me a "lesson". I think the hospital is failing. Badly. Missing the whole damn point. 

    Hatred does not heal a person. Threats and drugs do not heal a person. Lying does not heal a person. Missing the whole damn point. I'm getting lost here. I wish you had been there. I wish I would have recognized Small but I don't think I wanted to. I did not want to be back in that hospital. Now they want me to try again. Again. This is beyond ridiculous. I used to feel safe there. And you would watch over me. Now I have trouble staying present. Fading out. I hate the fading out. I don't know what they are doing. You always had a better way.

I think threatening each other with legal action is not the way to go. Demonizing me, making me afraid of my meds, not the way to go. Shipping me to other hospitals or states, not the way to go. Fix your damn problems. Stop teaching bullshit. Then I won't have to be the one you couldn't fix. A failure on the part of the student is a failure of the teacher.

Talk some sense into them.
