Gaps
The Time Traveler’s Journal
November 12, 2009
Its been nearly a month since my last entry. There is a reason for that. On October 21 I returned from the past after I spent three days in February 2009. I had been separated from current time for around 15 hours. Where I had gone was, by far, the worst period of my life until now so I was noticeably distraught. The doctor says that the shock I experienced from a memory relapse caused a terrible slide into depression (I didn’t exactly explain to him that I went to that time instead of remembered it). As a result of this relapse I, apparently, slit my wrists and waited to bleed out. Someone found out what I did and called for help. It was a very short period of time for response, however, so I am not exactly sure how they found out and responded so quickly.
I have been put under 24/7 psychiatric watch. This is the first time I have been allowed any personal writing materials. The drugs I am still on affect my mental acuity, so I apologize for incoherence. I am not likely to remember writing this, so I hope to have it around for when I get out. They tell me I am “improving,” but they watch me closely.
I think they know I am lying about what caused it… I think they may know that something isn’t right with my brain. I just pray that I don’t go anywhere while I’m here. They will never believe me.
