Updates about Bruce

edited May 2009 in General
Bruce asked me to keep you all informed with what is going on. He checked himself into a hospital this weekend after attempting to seriously harm himself. So far he's doing ok, he'll see a shrink on Monday and go from there.

I'll use this thread to convey updates from him to you. Please keep him in your thoughts/prayers/whatever while he goes through this process. I know that he'd appreciate it.

    Is this because we all told him to kill himself in the Orange Tuesday chat?

    Hope he calms down a bit. Maybe he can do some meditation, zen = happy, at least for me.

    Bruce always pulls this shit when I'm not around.

    I don't know what to say right now, really.

    I'll think of something later.

    DUDE! What the fuck! How'd I miss this? Bruce, if you're getting online and see this, know that we all really do care about you. We're all thinking about you and hoping you get better. Come back to us soon, all healthy.

    I think I missed the boat on this. This is sad news to come back to! I'd have to say ditto to what Adam said.

    Must. Speak. In cut sentences.

    In all seriousness, know that we are all very worried about you! I wish you the best!

    So.

    I'm back on weekend leave, got to go back on Tuesday. Perhaps a full summing up is in order:

    As some of you know, I suffer from depression. Mostly it's manageable, but sometimes it flares up quite annoyingly, makes me do silly things.

    However, recently it's taken a new turn and started to get worse. Essentially I started to experience psychotic episodes where I would hurt myself unconsciously and without memory of the event. I also started hearing voices.

    Deciding this was not quite proper, I went to see a doctor. This doctor told me to see a shrink. This shrink told me that I needed locking up (Taking into hospital for observations). So I did.

    Still dunno 100% what's up, but they're using meds to basically keep me normal (ish), but a proper diagnosis for this can take a while. I wish I had a mental doctor house to help me work it out.

    But seriously, you need to stop using your cell phone and also not drink flouridated water. Does England flouridate its water?

    I am, for all intents and purposes, discharged from the mental unit now. Success.

    They give you medication? Is it the good stuff?

    Don't hold out on us man!

    Bruce, you need to get a cute labrador. They are the natural cure of all suffering and stress.

    Nonsense! A golden retriever! Also, and on a more serious note, what did the doctors say? I mean, do you feel like they were able to help?
