At my day program today,they did a "presentation" for disaster preparedness.(holy shit the filmstrip was just nauseatingly brady bunchy kinda stupid,I was groaning and laughing through most of it,like everybody else.)
Anyway they went over what to do in a crisis event.
Like food,medicine,pets,shelter,flu symptoms etc.
Never before had we done anything like that in the time I have been there. In the group room I was in, I had no idea they even HAD a projection screen in there.

Later I asked why was this crisis preparation class done today?
I was told that the director of the program was told by the state to do it today....Weird.
Usually the state contacts the prp's to tell them their budget is getting cut again, or it's notification of some banal conference or a training thing.My feeling I get from the state is they just want our kind of folks to just disappear or be"productive" because the program costs them money.(a piss in the ocean compared to the military budget BTW)


I'm guessing maybe this class was held today so the state and the county MH boards could claim we told you so,If a member gets sick or the shit hits the fan, or it could be the state knows something we do not.Or it is more hype, Or it's just make sure we know what to do ..I dunno,regardless it makes me wonder..what's going on behind the 'scenes'. It feels like someone is stoking fear.Or the H1N1 Virus is worse than we are being told.
