================================================================

On Sep 1, 2018, I took a flight from Havana to Montreal, Canada. Why Canada? The flight was rather cheap, and I had never been to Canada before. I spent the day in Canada, and the first thing I did was buy a new soccer ball (my red one). Soon later, one of the Canadians kindly took a video of me juggling the soccer ball outside a McDonalds.

The ball, although decent, is not quite as good as the ball I used in Cuba. It’s noticeably smaller. It said it was a size 5 when I bought it...

Afterwards, I did some sight-seeing, and I juggled the ball in front of some Canadians who were curious as to why I was carrying a soccer ball around. That night, every hotel I visited was fully-booked (like 10 of them), so I ending up staying up all night in Battle Cyber Cafe (for 25 dollars I could use one of their computers from midnight to, if I recall correctly, 10 am). The next afternoon, I boarded a Greyhound bus headed to Boston. I arrived in Boston that night and took a taxi to my family’s house in Dedham.

♫ Just another manic Thursday ♫

On Monday, I began attending the Partial Program at Arbour Counseling. I enjoy talking about my state of mind and past history, but I do not enjoy other aspects of group therapy. I feel it is not time efficient for me, and it often induces boredom. I am attending the program because it is one of my parents’ wishes that I need to comply to in order to continue living in their home. So how do I feel? Mixed emotions. I am not enjoying my time currently as much as I enjoyed my time in distant lands. I have reflected on my past, and I have come to certain conclusions. I have a history of erratic, impulsive behavior. I keep juggling my soccer ball in various locations for the thrill of it, and I have a history of traveling to foreign lands (Havana , Mexico City, Montreal, and Washington D.C.) for similar reasons. I also blab about my blog a lot ( https://jeffreytfarrell.blogspot.com ). Since I have been able to travel alone off of the money I made independently, I can conclude that I was...

Back Home

On Friday, I was discharged from Newton-Wellesley Hospital after a month of being confined against my will. I certainly enjoy the greater freedom I have on the outside, along with the increased computer usage. So how do I feel? Actually a tad worse than the days leading up to the incident. I was cranky on the day of the incident, but before that, I was blissfully content juggling in D.C. and eating their overpriced pizza. Maybe I need to juggle a soccer ball again to get back into a good mood. I don't really experience depression...ever (well, nearly ever). In general, I'm more likely to be anxious than depressed and more likely to be bored than anxious. I get bored very easily, and I need to be entertained almost constantly. I have been like this since I was a child, and I have coping mechanisms for it; when hospitalized, my coping mechanisms are removed. And I am currently not hearing voices in my head. I keep repeating this, because people ask me a lot. I heard voice...

My flight from Boston was on May 11, 2018. There was a layover in Dallas. I used Airbnb for lodging. I got a room for about $10 a night in Venustiano Carranza right near the airport. Some of the places I frequented were: the p...
