It is!!
I'm watching eastenders now. Haven't seen it for a few days |
That's a program I've never watched. I hope you enjoy it though. I'm going to find something to watch on Netflix. So much to choose from.
|
Thanks
There is a lot on Netflix! I need to find a new series to watch |
I have been reading about how a recently discharged mh patient killed herself and there's a statement from my psych in the article. She wasn't one of his patients but he's an Medical Director for mh for the health board hence his comments.
|
That's a shame Dawn.
|
Yes it's sad. My health board hasn't got the best reputation for its mh wards but I have always been treated well (as well as you can be under the circumstances). Except for the fact that there's nothing to do. At one point when I thought I was going IP I bought a wii portable monitor and portable dvd player but I haven't been IP since I bought them.
|
I remember having nothing to do IP too. I was just glad I had music and sketchbooks with me.
|
Yes I bought my ipod last time. Idk if it's the same for all mh wards but we didn't have individual tvs. People kept on watching Jeremy Kyle which does my head in when I am well never mind when I am ill. Also they were watching itv during the day when I watch bbc so I missed my usual programmes.
|
We had a communal tv room plus tv in the communal and individual rooms. I was not in an individual room for long before I was moved to communal.
|
In all the hospitals I've been in, there's only been one or two communal tv rooms.
Except for the long stay secure units where you could have your own tvs and games consoles and everything in your rooms. The constant Jeremy Kyle used to do my head in! That and bloody smooth radio. |
There was a patient that used to have the tv on a music channel with awful music throughout the day. It drove me crazy. Or crazier, should I say.
|
Our current psych ward only has individual rooms. In the previous psych unit the majority of rooms were individual with the exception of one room per ward which had two beds. The previous unit had male and female wards now they are mixed sex. But they had female only tv room which I hid in when I wasn't in my room so I only saw males during visiting hours and meal times.
|
Other people's tv choices can be annoying!
The thing I probably missed most while IP was being able to watch the tv I wanted! The PICU I was in had separate female and male corridors with their own tv room. Was pretty good because I was the only female on the ward for most of the 7 months I was there! |
Oh yeah on one stay there was this patient who played the same 2 songs on loop through a stereo loudly. Not a night went by when someone didn't knock on her door and tell her to turn it down because people were trying to sleep.
|
I have made a poll to see which is more popular itv or Bbc.
|
That must have been annoying.
|
I just voted.
|
I voted too!
I find itv better because I don't like the typical bbc daytime shoes like homes under the hammer etc. Used to have to watch it every day in one of the secure units. |
I voted for BBC because they have casualty, Sherlock and doctor who.
|
Oops just realised it says during the day.
|
I would have voted bbc if it was evenings.
Sherlock, Doctor Who, casualty, holby and eastenders and room 101. And call the midwife. Lots of good evening tv! |
I love room 101. I'd love to put so many things in it (and annoying people).
|
Me too!!
I'm off to bed now guys. Night night and hope you all sleep well! |
Night night and sleep well.
|
I am reading the highway code. Fun times.
|
Anyone up still?
|
I'm up. You ok?
|
I can't sleep. Worried about tomorrow.
How come you're up so late? |
I can't sleep either. I understand you are worried about tomorrow. i hope it goes well. What time is your appointment?
|
Not being able to sleep sucks. Anything keeping you up?
I have to be at the surgery unit place thing at 7.30am. So I have to get up at half 6 which sucks. |
I would probably sleep if I'd stop playing with my phone.
That's an early time to get up at. At least it's first thing so you are not waiting around all day. I hope you manage to get some sleep. |
I'm logging off now to sleep. I hope you get some sleep. I'll be thinking about you tomorrow.
|
Lol I shall be motherly then and tell you to stop and sleep!
It's just the time they book you in thevactual time depends on who else is there. |
I hope they don't keep you waiting. Take something to distract yourself with, like a book or something.
|
Morning guys.
I'm sooooooo cold! |
Me too! Why don't you go have a nice bath or something?
|
I have to wait for the water to warm up.
I've put the heating on and am wrapped up in a duvet and dressing gown. How are you love? |
I feel very anxious and worried.
I hope you warm up soon! I don't have the luxury of heating control so just had to have a strip wash in the freezing cold. Brrrrrrrr. |
What's worrying you love?
|
It's hopefully my surgery today.
|
Oh **** yeah. I've only just realised what day it is. No wonder you're anxious. What time do you have to be at the hospital?
|
In 10 mins. I'm in the taxi now.
Are you warming up amy? |
Yeah I'm not too bad now.
I really hope it goes well and you're able to have the graft. |
That's good. What have you got planned today?
Thanks lovely. X |
I've been Clarke in now waiting to see the surgeon. I'm so anxious now.
|
Keep us updated. Thinking of you and sending tons of love.
Take deep breaths. |
The anaesthetist was lovely, like seriously nice. Now still to see the surgeon and hope they have a bed and do the op. Another step done.
|
Well done love, you're being really brave!
I have my fingers and toes crossed for you! Well, perhaps not toes... |
I have some exciting news! My driving licence came through the post today. It's only a short term one (3 years) which I am kinda disappointed about but otherwise I am happy. Hopefully by the time it expires I shall have passed my test.
I had a load of driving related books for my birthday so I guess that it's time to start revising lol. Hopefully you'll get yours soon Beckie. |
Yay dawn.
I had the surgery. It went fine. I'm so tired now. |
