Going Home

Four sleeps and I am going home.  What does this mean for me.  It means continuing with my recovery.  It means challenges.  It means I will be home with my family.  It means I more than ever need your continued support and understanding.

As I have said in an earlier blog; 'you can't unring the bell'.  This was something I read in someone else's blog so I can't lay claim to this and it is quite a common saying.   Now that it is out that I have been in a psychiatric hospital for several months it means some people, many people or perhaps nobody will be alert for nutty behaviour or maybe not.

Please don't do this.  I am as 'abnormal' as anybody else.  Seriously really who is normal, what is normal and do you really want to be considered normal?  I know I don't.  The thing is I will be just the same as before.  Maybe a little fragile at first.

Please do not feel the need to tiptoe around me.  Talk, act and laugh as ever before.  I am the first to make jokes about myself and my 'visit to the loony bin'.  Ok - so yes you can't unring the bell but you don't have to listen to it's ongoing vibrations.  You can just choose to accept.

Over and out
Love
Laura
