Life in an adolescent unit.
It's weird having to ask a nurse if you can go to your room to get something, it's weird sitting with a lot of other people with difficulties, it's weird having nurses follow you everywhere, ask you what you're doing all the time. It's weird having a routine, a set dinner, a bedtime and a waking up time.
But therapy is good, i'm actually progressing and it's only been a week!!

Hey,

I was in an adolescent unit for 3 months last year. The first week is very surreal but you suprise yourself at how quickly you become used to it.

And those weird other patients? They become your friends and because they have problems too, they totally get your sense of humour!

Anyway, what I am trying to say is keep at it and I'm pleased you're making progress already. Therapy is more regular, slightly more intense and more to the point of your problems so its bound to help more if you are more open minded, which by the sounds of it you have been for a while now.

So proud of you!!
