I need a hug!

[maly]

When i was in a secure hospital, and i was going through a mental breakdown, my psychiatrist ask me ' what i felt i needed?' My reply was a hug. The next day a man from the patient advocacy service came to visit me on the ward and said that 'he had heard that i needed a hug' i said 'yes' then he hugged me for a long time while i sobbed. It was the most beneficial treatment i received in that sad time!

So hugs to you.

And all who feel you need a hug do not be afraid to ask!

Thanks Maly, that's about the coolest hospital story I've heard. Sometimes a little comfort is way more powerful than medicine.
