That sounds like a good plan, I hope they agree to give you Lorazepam in the morning and see how it goes. I'm glad you've had a good day and I hope you have a peaceful night and sleep well.

They let me have towels and my razor unsupervised. I reminded myself over and over again that the towels weren't my property to destroy and successfully had a safe shower. It feels good to be hair free!
Well done, I'm glad you managed to talk yourself out of doing anything unsafe. Keep going with it. It is good to be hair free. :) I used to keep forgetting to ask for a razor so my underarm hair went wild! How has the rest of your day been?

Quiet. I was missing my family so I phoned Mum and got her to put me on speaker for a bit. Then just now I was lying down doing some meditation and the staff were checking on me every 5 minutes! I think they thought I was a bit odd.
If you keep doing the same things you'll be in there longer and that's not good. It's good you're trying to express things through drawing. Maybe you could do more of that.

I know you said the drawing isn't quite right, but do you think it would help if the staff saw it so they understand what's happening for you a little bit better? Sorry today was tough again, I hope you get some rest this evening.

I know what you mean about the door that is locked- and the desire to escape.
It is a strong urge that can happen when you're in this situation.
Try and remind yourself the more you do try- the longer, you'll be inside. I was immediately put on Section 3 from 2 when I demanded to be let out.
What does the door mean to you? Are there ways of letting out your frustrations of that door in other ways?
Drawing is good, writing is another way of expressing frustration, anger etc.
How are you today?

People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
No one dared
Disturb the sound of silence.."
Focus on the safe things that help to keep you calm. You can do it. Make sure you ask for help if you need it. A chat with someone or PRN is better than becoming overly distressed. That's a shame that your ward round was moved but I guess it gives you time to prepare if there's anything you want to say or write etc. I hope you have a good day today. Will you be having visitors?

My dad came this coming, my godmother might come (depending on traffic) and L is coming this evening.
I am feeling very anxious, despite PRN a couple of hours ago but I don't want to escape because of my godmother hopefully coming, it's a long journey for her.
How are you doing now? I hope your visits are helping you to relax a bit. Please don't try and escape, it's not worth it. You won't get out and you might get some sort of negative response from it.

I'm glad you enjoyed your godmother coming to see you. That sounds really nice!
Escape will, at the most, be momentary relief from what you're experiencing until you're found. There is little chance you'll escape. I suspect the workers on the ward are on high alert if you try and get out of the door.
I really hope tonight goes calmly for you.

Keep reminding yourself that trying to escape has never gone well, it won't go well in the future either. You need to try hard to put that to one side and work through things with the staff. Do you have regular scheduled talks with a staff member? Is anyone working on anything with you? Maybe they won't do these things if you keep trying to escape and you'll be stuck.
Visits sound really positive for you, I'm glad people are visiting regularly. Try and hold on to your time with your relatives and how much they care for you.
I hope you have a good day today.

Why are you trying x so frequently? Please try to stop so you can get the right sort of help. I hope your pictures help the doctor understand what's going on for you and that your review in general goes well.

Everyone is brave in their own way, but it's not brave to do harmful things and it won't be viewed as such. What are the things you want to stop, specifically? Have you had your ward review yet?
