So, I just got out of inpatient care, I was doing really well there in the safety of the hospital bubble but now that I'm out it's not the same. like I feel like I'm slipping again and it's only been two days. I don't know if it's just me readjusting or the lack of structure or both or neither or what but I was wondering if anyone else has experienced something similar?

I know you didn't mean it to be funny and I hope not too much of it went out.

Later

@Courtney_J No problem, looks like a typical case of pandemic speed typing brought on by too much multitasking.

@terryar Hey, I've done a few inpatient treatment programs and yeah, I felt the same way. For me I felt really good in treatment too because you're supported and given all the tools and techniques to get to a good place, and then it's almost like they rip the rug out from under you when you leave and you're on your own. What helped me some was started a new journal where I tried to write down how I was feeling and check in with myself and remember what I'd learned. Stay strong, you'll get through this!
