Being a guy in an all-female household is hard at the best of times when you come from a stable family which has its ups and downs. I'm a Psychologist without a degree working in a Hospital without a license, the only peace I get is at night when the patients are in bed asleep or they are roaming the classrooms of the local High school. I thought that Beverly Hills 90210 was just a TV show then I moved into the real Beverly Hills and it's not at 90210 rather it's at 56441 and the drama is 7 days a week. Even though there are rules and somewhat of a script the patients regularly drop the script and decide to adlib and it's everyone else's fault as to why they went off script because they see a different script from their co-cast member. I know to some this post makes little sense but to others, this post makes more sense than others could possibly imagine. The 17-year-old likes to change the script without notice and then blame it on the almost 13-year-old or worse still the doctors who run the hospital. Sending them to their rooms does nothing but make them fester and think of the next opportunity to turn the hospital into a wild safari on a stampede. I came into the hospital fully aware of the history of the patients but never did I ever imagine the animals would bite me when I offer the help they so desperately need,. The 17-year-old is coming around and still has their moments but now the almost 13-year-old is following in her footsteps causing more carnage than the 17-year-old has ; I'm not asking for help or advice just understanding that I can't be the only one who lives this way who is living in a psych hospital and having the patients constantly acting like a herd of angry animals. The 13 year old has their moments where they curl up next to me like a cat to watch movies or clips on Facebook. She is usually fairly quick to apologize but sometimes I wonder if she really understands what it is she has done wrong or if she is apologizing just so she doesn't get into more trouble. Like I said I'm not asking for advice just understanding that others out there are feeling the same or similar things as me. Well, I have rambled on enough now .
