As some of you know I have been planning a break for a while. As it is almost midnight I thought now would be a good time to announce it.
I announce I am having a break from Mental Nurse.
Mental
This was planned before some of the more recent heated discussions. Though these have shown me that I am losing my balance a little bit. Events in real life have made me become more easily stressed. The decisions I made should have been implemented better. Some discussions I have had off site have also recently shown me up for the mook that I am. Amongst other things an attempt was made to expose my identity which failed but did come very close to costing me a friendship.
We now have an excellent selection of authors on Mental Nurse from a range of backgrounds. Giving a wide range of viewpoints and some quality debate. The site regulars go from strength to strength. Would particularly like to thank Lou who cheered me up just when I was feeling particularly annoyed and upset.
Also I have been repeating posts without adding anything new. Partly because it is so difficult to write about my current job for a variety of reasons also I suspect some of the others have been stealing my thoughts and writing my posts before I could
So, as I said, I am announcing my Having A Breakness.
I last took a break a little under a year ago. It was lovely.
My current plan is to take a complete break from Mental Nurse for a while and then hopefully return only to provide technical support to far better authors than I. I have had a wonderful time over the last two and a bit years and would like to thank everyone for all their support and contributions.
I am possibly going to try another blog. A nice one. Something to do with puppies and kittens. Nice things.
Well that is midnight.
Goodnight All.
Mental Nurse.



You’ll be missed Mental! I hope you visit now and again!
Oh no! And I’ve only just arrived! You’re lucky I’ve covered abandonment theories in therapy!
I’m glad I cheered you up though. Will you get a leaving present from Dr Crippen?
Like an entire tin of bourbon biscuits?
You’ll be missed Mental. Take care of you. x
Be good to yourself, Mental, enjoy your break.
HAve a good break Mental, and hope to see you again soon!
I’ll be sorry to see you go, you’ve been no end of help.
Hope you have a nice break (and a happy new blog full of puppies- but beware internet pet owners)
Aww! Have a good break, and I hope you come back revitalised soon.
When I was young my uncle went to America for ten years. He never sent a single postcard. When I grew up I found out that he had actually remained within the UK… courtesy of Her Majesty. Not that I’m implying anything
I presume you will be lurking in the shadows keeping an eye on us so I will try and resist speaking behind your back
Hope you enjoy your special time and get early parole.
Best Wishes
Mo
Enjoy your break Mister Mental. Don’t forget to send us a postcard from time to time.
I’ll miss you but I totally understand. I stopped my old blog when comments got uncomfortable. I now blog a much easier and less controversial widely-read one and the lack of uncomfortable comments makes my life much less stressful!
Have a good break, but don’t disappear for good.

I’ll miss your humour.
Thanks for everything and have a good break.

I’m sorry Mo, I don’t quite get it.
What is the difference between having to spend 10 years in America or 10 years in prison?
Mental,
If your new blog is about kittens, I’d just like to add that my cat was recently diagnosed with “stress” by the vet.
Maybe you should stick to puppies.
“What is the difference between having to spend 10 years in America or 10 years in prison?”
You’re right Bloo. In a UK prison a 10 year sentence means getting released in 5…. grrr.. I’m getting all right wing extremist again instead of trying to be funny…. I’ll start again…
You’re right Bloo. At least in a UK prison you’re not despised by the world as a brutal autocracy that destroys other countries on a whim. Much better being a nice simple murderer… oh fek.. I’ve gone all left wing now… oh I give in
Thnks for your help and the laughs. Really helped get me through the last part of training.
Have a fantastic break
Nuts. It’s (almost) the curse of me again.
Every time I make a concious effort to get into something, be it bands, blogs, or whatever, the “thing” I’m joyfully liking split up, disappear, or worse.
As everyone else has said, you’ll be missed and have a nice time doing non-blogging stuff.
