I feel that after my stay on Marina ward I am far more able to recognise I needed and still need to take full responsibility for my actions and that I can make my own decisions. There was no need for me to be there for so long and I could easily have been discharged now had I kept myself to myself. To be fair I am having my medication altered now which I am comfortable with. Marina staff went above and beyond their limits to facilitate my needs in terms of occupational therapy and is the least restrictive ward I've been on for over a decade. This worked both positively and negatively for me as the kindness from the team I may have taken for weakness and I may have misbehaved because of this as well as got involved in arguments I shouldn't have.

Suggested improvements
English breakfast on a Saturday most definitely! otherwise maybe more seclusion, even for myself. Although I feel that after the care and treatment I received on marina I am well on my way to a full recovery with some extra counsel I will be able to finally face the fact that illegal drugs are no good for me. I have no real right to make any suggestions.
