I think ward rounds went well. I've got escorted leave! I got overwhelmed by voices when the psych asked what I thought about the possibility of flying, separate from the voices. And I told the psych, with nurse C in the room, about his lying about Thursday which I now regret and want to apologise to C for.
I'm not sure exactly how much I'm getting, it hasn't been printed out yet. I think I will be safe, as even if I have urges to run my foot right now is too sore, and I have no idea where I am!
Yeah that's what people usually say to do isn't it? I hope the swelling goes down enough soon and the pain lessens and you can have some time off the ward with your family.
I put it down on paper and then the ghost does not ache so much.
Don't try to calm the storm, calm yourself, the storm will pass.
I'm ok. Apparently my ward rounds isn't till Thursday. I kind of wanted it to be at the beginning of the week, like usual.
One of the HCAs has very kindly said she will shave my underarms for me because I'm not allowed a razor. I'm really tempted, partly because of voices, to try to grab the razor off her. That's why I'm not allowed razors, isn't it......
^ Yeah I think you've pretty much got it in one there Tamo. How is your foot today?
I'm not sure what will help you NOT grab the razor but think about escorted leave. You don't want to lose that, particularly after you've had to wait for your foot to heal.

Reason: Adding something
You cannot get through a single day without having an impact on the world around you What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you wish to make.
If you grabbed the razor you could potentially hurt the HCA. Also I agree that you need to think about your leave and moving forward with things. Ultimately if you can't do this safely you should tell someone and just be a bit hairy.

Thank you for your input, it really helped. We successfully shaved my underarms without me trying to grab the razor :) head has been eerily and unexpectedly quiet so far today...
