Elaina's Day Pass 18/04/2010

Hey there. I'm just home from Elaina's house after we spent the day together there. She was out on day pass today. For those of you who don't know what a day pass is then it's time for me to explain Elaina's situation. Now there is only some much detail I am willing to go into on a open blog webpage so I'll explain as best I can. Elaina suffers from three different mental illness. These are:

1. Borderline Personality Disorder
2. Bi-Polar syndrome
3. Anorexia

Now I'm not going to go into detail about what sort of problems these cause but basically the first two effect her mood and the third her eating habits. Make no mistake...This girl is NOT crazy. She is kind, caring, supportive and understanding. She does everything she can to help those around her. I personally think that she sometimes can care too much. She'll sacrafise her own needs for others in the blink of an eye. So as a result of these conditions shes currently in a physicatric unit to help her manage her problems. but more on that another time. This is about how my day with her went.

Well i'll be honest it didn't of to a great start. I didn't know she was going to be on day pass until 10.00am this morning (I wasn't able to get over to sleep till 7.00am) so I spoke to my mum who's house I had to stay at that night due to the actions of a drunken resident in the house I rent a room in (but, again, more on that later). So my mum and her boyfriend (My father passedaway two years ago...later) brought me over to the hospital and we arrived at about 11.15am. So in I went and she met me at the door of her ward and we went into one of the visiting rooms to wait on her older sister who was picking us up to bring us to Elaina's house. While in the ward I had an odd since of unease but I couldn't put my finger on the reason so i shrugged it off. Her sister arrived and the journey passed unremarkably. So anyways we arrived at the house and in we went, me making a bee line for the kettle, as was the custom, (Elaina is a massive tea drinker) and began to make her a cup of tea while she headed upstairs. When i arrived up I found her on her laptop which was fine (no internet access where she is and she is a total facebook addict). So i just cuddled up to her as is my way and let her work away. She said she had to print out work for university that she had missed due to staying in hospital (again understandable:- shes been in over a month). So away she went and I decided to get some sleep as i had only had 3 hours that night. So I told her to wake me when she was done. This was at about 1.30pm. I read a bit of a book im into at the minute (The wonderful life of Henry Sugar by Roald Dahl) then dozed off. I woke up suddenly as sometimes happens and decided to see were Elaina was. Still doing work. Now bearing in mind that we had limited time together and i fell asleep at 1.30pm and we had to leave at 5.45pm and she had let me sleep on to 4.00pm with out waking me sort of annoyied me. We had a talk and I decide to go for a walk and when i came back i jumped back into the bed with my book. Elaina came in about 5 minutes later and said she was sorry she got carried away with the work and I said I was sorry I complained (I guess I was just tired) So she lay beside me and we cuddled and kissed and made up. Alot more than that followed (it's been 2 weeks since had anytime alone together) but i don't believe in washing juicy linen in public so I'll let you use your imagination. Anyways all-in-all...Great Day!!

My Woes and Elaina


All right basically right now my life isn't so good but I'm going to go into more detail why at later date. This is just a brief overview. I mean I don't have a job and I'm not in education (I was in Tech studies Games Development but had to drop out for reasons that will become clear). But my main worry is this...See that girl on the right, the one with the bright red hair and smile thats so happy it could be locked up for public indecenty? That my friends is the girl I'm lucky enough to call my girlfriend. Now why im worried about her will become clear later but right now I just want to descirde but she means to me. When ever I see her I feel safe and secure and happy ( I mean come on, look at the smile and tell me you don't just want to smile right back) and really what more could someone ask for in a relationship. Understanding - check Supportive - check Stunningly Beautiful - check. Shes just so bubbly she helps me relax rather than be all uptight all the time. For those of you who have that somebody then you'll know exactly what i mean and for those of you who don't find them.

First Blog


Ok it's 03.28 according to the clock on the computer. Im currently staying at my mums house for reasons ill explain later. First, just as i would like to know who I am getting feed back from, You should know the person your giving advice to. Anyway this is me (right). My names Connor Cochrane and im a 17 year old from Northern Ireland. I enjoy spending a lot of my time on the computer as computer (apart from the odd melt down) can't give you any cheek or hassle. I'm not the most sociable person in the world but more on that later. more or less i got the idea for this blog from the hit tv show "House" were a patient of his was a huge blogger and had many internet buddies who she was able to type out her problems to. At first I thought it was kind of silly but then i got to thinking. I'm not great at having a disscussion with someone face to face. I fail even more miserably when I'm trying to talk about a problem I'm having or trying to ask for advice. The whole idea of seeing the expressions on people's faces' when they don't agree with, or more often than not, don't care what your talking about is both angering and hurtful. So I've decided to start up this blog to help eliminate that from the equation. All I want is to have a safe place that I know I could go to ask questions and get answers. Anyway thanks for taking the time to read this and hope to hear what you have to say.

Peace out
