The abandoned Puzzle Room has been abandoned for years. Many years. I’m too old it seems. I use to play on it. I’m now 521/2years younger old. It was closed down very years prior to people’s who just gave up. Gave up on life!! They throw it everywhere. Too me, there were many signs. Always I used to sneak out and go down there. I found it. It used to be my refuge place. A place where I’d add to pictorial visuals. I always said I would one day put the world back together. And I sure could keep it secretly to this day.

**Why?

The house again was built back when I was almost a year old. It was 1970.I am now almost 53. The house says that it was built in 1970. When it was abandoned at the age of 4. Oh, I remember it like yesterday I was able to use it as a puzzle room. It was full of life. I was built to this day! I loved puzzling. People had forgotten about puzzles and they used to frustrate them. Until they used to toss them(all the pieces everywhere). I believe it would be a rarity to me. Rarely besides being inside during a rainy day, I would do as many as I could count.

Revisiting My Space

All sprout 🌱 at (all). different times in our lives, the spice of my life I was very lit. I was Lit for puzzles.🧩 So spacing back at 1007 avenue. I entered the same way I’d left it. Open it two cracks to the left and 4 to the right. One back to the left, and you will never guess what it did? It opened! I was in for a hell of a surprise this time! SURPRISINGLY Curious.

The door opened! Next thing I know is I’m in a checkered board slide and where it takes me next is undeniable! I run into another room. Where I run smack into another person a tall Frankenstein looking character who wants to take me out?! So I juke him, because I know why he is here! He is here to make his way out the same reason I am! The puzzle on the wall is in the same place it was left in 1970. And i love solving puzzles 🧩!! I did the unthinkable but the man is viscous if you let him. So I juke free from him. And I was on my way.

**The video

The video that played on the wall showed a silky man very tall dressed in silky black classically and he said don’t make me come alive. If I come through the tv 📺 I we I will kill you. Do right away, I made a dash out of there. I knew but if he gets me?!. I made another dash because if he knows, I knew he’d kill me.

So exited door 🚪 2 I run for my life and Make it out door three where I head for the woods back to my own room. I say a silent prayer as I silently fall asleep until the morning. Then I head to work the next day.

The very next day

The very next day happened! I’d spent the day in my psychiatrists office and he and I had a real long distinguished talk about point out visual hallucinations from reality. He claims he tried to prick my ❤️ heart but my heart was for him I’d been to so many appointments.

The outcome

The outcome ended when I erased all that came to memory about that one crucial night. I made out with my psychiatrist and finally stepped back into reality. The reality was that I promised tobe good and trust that I was ready to not let the fantasy world overtake what was happening in the present.

And to finally regain my life back and never go back to where I came from. To continue on my life without all the characters of elm street that placed recognizable horror stains upon my life! I told him I’m ready to be treated with you helping me now and move on with our lives. My greatest wish is that he would accept me this way.

I’d striked out so many times but with him. I knew how to hit home. And that is how u desired him because I’d been to so many appointments.

One day i went into his office and I said I’m ready to put this all behind me and regain my life with you or start over.

He said that’s great and that will never happen. I feel that I can shoot my shot because for the longest I’ve remained a single girl and I know that I gave crafted feelings for my psychiatrist.

As a end result

I push to get better and I finally came to a conclusion that I can’t run out Kate to see guys. Do triple threat things.Or take illusions a reality because by that time no one can help me.

I realized overtime that we developed a trusting friendship into me getting better ❤️‍🩹. It definitely took a lifetime and many days in his office about why I went through the abandoned puzzle room and why God continues to spread my life every single grateful time.

Leave it

The abandoned puzzle room will always be a piece of me. Like jumanji you got to have a finale to leave it at and ending peace. Because odd characters will never find rest. And what we’re trying to avoid clearly nowadays. Loose killers.

My Ultimate Ending

Is to leave them at a sincere peaceful ending place. However that is you gotta create a clear picture! Because the ones I left were very isolated unattended and really fearful.

Not one that leaves you abandoned like the puzzle room had became. The story was left at peace and the ultimate in ending result concludes me & my psychiatrist breaking that from me and we ended up getting married after kissing and we finally move on from there. He ends up in my life , I get on the med. , s and feel a presence that truly used to be a void.
