I Am Stressed And Confused
damn what a day at work today. I talk about a lot of things on this site, like my thoughts and opinions and some things that goes on in my life but I haven't talked much about my job and have not done that so often as I work around patients who I don't feel is right to talk about without their consent.
Going to do this once here because I am now so stressed out and confused on what to do and I don't like bottling in my thoughts anymore as my life will be completely over run by my thoughts and that never really goes so well for me.
I am I guess a simple way of describing my job as a social worker in two Psychiatric wards. Basically I hang out with people who are hospitalised and try to make their days in there a bit more tolerable and do activities and so on.
there has been a girl in there who has been in there for almost 2 months and for almost a month, she kept to herself and stayed in her room and would hardly ever socialise or I guess open up.
One night that changed when she couldn't sleep and it was just me and her in the common room, playing wii for a bit. She opened up during that and well I am not going into detail about that but will say she has been through some horrible stuff.
ever since that night she has been very close with me and talks a fair bit with me. So that was awesome as it felt like I might be helping her a bit, just if that means she had someone to talk too who would just listen and not try giving her medication or anything in that nature (I cant do that anyway).
Today she kissed me and told me she had feelings towards me. I have no idea what to do. For certain reasons I feel I have to be very gentle in this area now and I don't know how to handle this at all.
I Have been told I need to do numerous things now and I have explained to her that can not happen again and so on but yeah it is really hard (not the telling her not to do that again) but I feel like now I am just hurting her and things will now only get worse..
God I sound so full of myself as in that I could make anyone feel worse due to telling them I cant be with them or return certain feelings. I hate this whole thing
sorry just typing as I think
