I tend to rate my mood more observationally I count how many people are ignoring me, seething at me, or like sending me dirty looks.
MY MOOD is 100! Usually! I am a very happy person!
I kid I kid....
Actually not about the mood rating the numbers. I am not prepared to give out my highest count cuz I don't think it COUNTS because I was on the psych unit the first time.
I will say, once you get there that FIRST time EVERYONE hates you dood. Like your OWN FAMILY wants you dead but the hospital tells them the mentally ill are people too and most people get CAUGHT even with the mentally ill. LOL. My pdoc actually said that. Also, me the kid, my mom and my husband assembled for like our FIRST family session and the husband was like STEAMING like you would have burned to a crisp looking at him too long.
The pdoc said, "So, you must be Mr. So and So, you look as if you feel righteously angry...."
I kinda blanked out after that but I thought it was some nice head on attack therapy.; LOL. I learned more about psych by that hospitalization than ALL of SW school.
Also many of my co students were like TERRIFIED to be placed at the state hospital and I was like, "Sweet, I hear they have real live MURDERERS here I hope I get to talk to one, I wonder what it will be like COOL I bet cuz I have the KEYS!!!"
Having the keys is a huge win when you work on a locked psych unit.
