My Two Week Stay In Hospital For Depression.

I had always though of a mental hospital as a place where people with serious mental issues went. I didn't know people went there for depression. I spent two weeks there depressed. I got to meet people and see people with all different kinds of mental illness. At first I was really scared and nervous and watched everyone very careful. As the time passed really slowly each day was a little easier. There was a beautiful lake there and I walked around it a few times everyday to clear my head. So many swans and ducks swimming around the lake and when someone walked the paths they would all swim over with the hope of someone feeding them some bread. I had lots of time to think about my life. I walked so much and the end of each day I just fell into bed from tiredness. I had my make-up done, nails painted, foot spa's and even baked some apple pies and a rhubarb pie. Not a place I'd want to stay in but the brake did me good away from all the stress.
