The Miracle Of Exercise And A Movie

Posted by Jeroen , 17 June 2012 · 172 views

Woke up feeling terrible. I slept for 14 hours last night. Woke up around noon. Had lunch, even though I can barely get anything in. Didn't want to go outside the hospital, but I did. That was the right decision for me. I went to the gym in the city and did an hour's worth of exercise. Felt bad because people were staring at me and inwardly mocking me. It's because I'm so skinny and not muscular at all. That's why I'm going to the gym in the first place...

Then I watched a movie at the cinema, alone...   I watched De Rouille et d'Os, a French film featuring the Belgian actor Matthias Schoenaerts. Good film, even though I couldn't really enjoy it. I really felt the loneliness. It's such a crushing feeling. To add insult to injury, I had a headache.

Back at the hospital, I asked for a Dafalgan to ease the headache. It worked. I don't know why, but somehow this place makes so uncomfortable and depressed. The people here don't talk to each other. I really need a friend here. There's one guy who keeps burping in front of people. He's so disgusting. At least excuse yourself when it happens...   I don't feel any friendliness from the staff here as well. Isn't it their job to help me? The food here is disgusting as well. Typical hospital food. I just feel so lonely and depressed here. I.e.; even more lonely and depressed than usual.

End of Rant.

Hi Jeroen.

I`m sorry that your finding this new place so bad.Sending out big ((hugs)) to you.I really hope everything gets better for you.
Hi Jeroen,

Sorry to hear that your hospital isn't as welcoming as it should be. Is there anyone you can talk to about it, in a supportive way (i.e. 'I need a little help, could do with a friend') that doesn't make them feel like you're criticising the help thats being offered to you? A little diplomacy could go a long way there.

I had the same thing yesterday in terms of exercise - I didn't want to do it, but did it anyway - I'm sure it helped.

Take care
Mark.

Sorry the new place is not very nice. At least you have us to talk to! Try to eat, even if the food is not very good.
