Get Well Soon 2(Akathisia)
The Wikipedia definition of akathisia includes reference to ‘inner restlessness’ which is manifested in an inability to sit still or to
remain motionless. Derived from the Greek for ‘not to sit’ or ‘without sitting’, akathisia
is a ‘side effect’ of some typical antipsychotic medications, particularly when
given by injection.

Service asylums in the UK, was that
they weren’t about to get well any time soon...

THE END
If any of the issues here haveaffected you, draw a picture,
make a song or poem – do some kind of narrative.
And maybe use digital media.
