Issues at the interface of Mavis, community-based psychiatric services and the mentally normal

[Mitchy1nge]

I think that covers us all?

I'm watching Mavis skin up with the bag she bought back off me. I'm letting her owe me a fiver so she's not completely money-less. But apparently she doesn't remember owing me five in the first place, so I now feel like a bad person for wanting my fiver back

Apparently she hasn't had a bath in a week

She didn't buy a new house phone apparently because she got sidetracked by smoking a joint the asked a random homeless person for a share of, which apparently had something odd in it.

I mean, who asks random people to share their joint? How did she even notice he had a joint? I never see people concealing joints and get to share them.

The bath is now going cold. She's insisting on messing about in the living room. She doesn't get that I've told her it goes cold quickly. She insisted it was run as soon as she came in the door, now she wants to get high instead

Get in the bloody bath, lady!

I've escaped upstairs.

Cannot handle Mavis right now.

I'm finally bathed and dressed but not sure I like what I've chosen. Still have to put face on but thought I'd arse around on here instead.

Bag of tobacco. I sold her back a bag of tobacco.

Mavis sounds like she might be hard work at times. Get her in the bloody bath, she must pong by this stage.

Put face on?

Mavis is a lovely person but yes, very hard work.

Bad acne scars, need to be covered with war paint.

She only gets involved with smoking joints with homeless people because she has a kind heart and spends all her money buying them food.

Ah, make-up. I see. Good-oh.

Amazingly, she doesn't smell at all

She sounds like a good, if slightly misguided, egg.

Yeah…

I'm finally ready and in a totally different set of clothes. Feel much better now.

How's Mavis? Got her into the bath yet?

Yes, she's telling me about all her visions and command hallucinations and her time at an abusive boarding special school which has since had to pay out tens of thousands to abuse victims.

I shouldn't be telling you this. I'm disinhibited.

I mean this is her private stuff, I shouldn't be Sharing it.

Oh apparently God is broadcasting thoughts via the music now. Help.

It's Madonna's Immaculate collection, too.

She's like this sober, too. Bloody constant conversation with God. Except most of it is quieter than this. Hard to get a word in edgeways at the moment.

I am trying really hard not to think of all those lists of symptoms and stuff when I'm listening to Mavis, because I HATE it when people pathologise me.
