At this point, I started a completely new journal about the activities of our office that had little or nothing to do with our poet – which ran up to the point when I left the publication in 2018-18, after which I reabsorbed any journals about our office into may main journal.
But I kept writing the journal about our poet until around
2016, and still maintain the daily poetry journal, although not all of the
poetry journal after 2016 was related to her.
I will not post anything from the publication journal here
unless it has some connection to our poet.is point, I started a completely new journal about the

I will not post anything from the publication journal here
unless it has some connection to our poet.
with this being the day of spring's official start, our poet makes ready to re-enter society
But this is not a reformed poet and she returns to her old
haunts with the fundamental problems unresolved
She is saddled with an unabashed sense of entitlement which
will fuel all the other problems in her life
she seeks to greatness and wealth but that her hard work at
meaningless jobs is the main reason for her constant falling back into eating
disorders
how much of this her therapist picked up on is hard to say. they
clearly see her need to leave now as flight from dealing with the fundamental
disorder.
we get from her essays that she making the case that she
should be allowed to leave. Indeed, her last essay suggested that someone else
has I say whether she can come or go and the same someone may be the real
reason our poet agreed to go in the first place
this is someone who holds something over her head most
likely her grandmother who is paying the freight for all this therapy and
demanded that she get real cure this time rather than all the temporary fixes
she's engaged with prior to this
our poet tried to get away with only a two-week stay and
reluctantly agreed to 6 weeks stay when the minimum recommended stays 3 months
Her 6-week stay also shows a truncated version of her cure
pattern or job or School pattern in that she leaps into the effort very gung ho
at first and then at some point she begins to falter and then fails as the
project proves too difficult or she does not get the reward she wants quickly
enough.
her last three essays differ sharply from earlier ones and
seem more focused on convincing management of something while she breaks the
food rules. she lashed out at another patient or why she is ready to go back
into the real world
our poets arguments in this last work are particularly weak,
noting that she has real life experience on her own, while other women in the
program do not have it
and all that she has
not needed medicine to sleep or poop for 2 days when she has relied on them for
two decades prior to her stay at the clinic
the logic may work on the people as gullible as our
temporary boss or our gossip at the paper but you have to think the therapist
at the clinic are a bit more savvy and see these arguments as symptoms of an
unrepentant person rather than someone on her way to a cure
the big question is
what will they report to the person who is paying for our poets stay and will
they recommend her release or not one also has to wonder how much weight they
have over the poet who already tried to bolt once when she first got there will
she leave anyway if the doctors recommend a few more weeks in house therapy
