@twinkie I remember spending Thanksgiving in the crisis center, and was still there for my wife's birthday on the 13th of December. I set a goal to be out before Christmas, and I made it, even though I still wasn't safe.
I've been in the hospital several times, and I felt very lonely when no one came to see me. It's hard.
Hearing from your therapist was great. Perhaps you can focus on your conversation over the next couple of days. You're there for You. Can you try to hold on to the things that are helping you? Take good care of yourself these few days.

Twinkie, so happy you are in a healing environment. You may not see us but you forum buddies are with you. Blessings
That's great that you can be connected to your therapist by telepsyche. What book are you reading?
I get that you're still so sad, lonely and heartbroken. Today's a tough day for many people. I wonder if there are others (clients and staff) in crisis center feeling like you do and just need an invitation. Is there a common area that you could invite someone to join you for a game of cards? Or some activity that doesn't make any obliged to talk, but has you sharing space and time together?
