12th October 2022 - Day 109This is so ridiculous!
Why am I still here?
I've been here for over 100 days now and the doctors keep saying that I'm "not ready to leave". People are coming and going, and I'm stuck here for the rest of my life! I've finally had enough!
Come New Year's Eve, if I'm still here, I don't want to see the new year. I want to be out, celebrating with my friends. But if I can't celebrate with my friends on the outside, I suppose I'll have to make friends on the inside to celebrate the passing of our lives together.yours sincerely, arthur james
welcome to saint margaret private hospitalWelcome to Saint Margaret Private Hospital, the only private stand-alone psychiatric teaching hospital in the state of Ohio. Located on a 10-hectare (25-acre) site, this hospital tends to 178 patients with 320 nurses on staff. Saint Margaret is a fully accredited psychiatric teaching hospital and has research and educational facilities located on campus; and has been used as a central training facility for medical, nursing and other health professionals specialising in mental health.
As part of its ongoing research, Saint Margaret has focused on the impact of group therapy sessions on individual patients. They believe that healing begins when placed in group settings and through exercising empathy for others. Patients are split into randomized groups and often made to eat together, participate in team-building activities, spend their free time amongst others, and speak their truth publicly within group therapy sessions. Of course, itβs not for everyone, and you will find someone with a couple of loose threads. Although solitary confinement is frowned upon, sometimes itβs just whatβs best for those in pain.
One loose thread, Andrew James, has made his name known amongst the patients and staff in Saint Margaret. While the doctors and nurses find his ramblings that of an unstable person, some of the patients have come to realise that maybe - just maybe - Andrew is the sane one. After being brought back from solitary, Andrew has been placed in a new group. Soon after meeting his new friends, Andrew announces to them that come New Years Eve, if heβs still stuck in the hospital, heβs planning on ending his life. He invites others to join him, in making a pact. Because they can stop one person from trying to end it all, but they canβt stop all of them, right?
The crazy thing is⦠people are agreeing.
And so, that is how The Lonely Hearts Pact began.
it's time to heal together
the plotThank you for taking the time to read about The Lonely Hearts Pact! This modern-day, realistic open roleplay is centred around the patients who are residing at Saint Margaret Private Hospital situated in the state of Ohio. However, these particular patients are those who have heard Andrewβs ideas and have come to the conclusion that heβs right; that this pact is the only true way out of the hospital. Over the next few weeks, will our patients heal enough to be allowed back into society? Or will New Year's Eve come, and they find themselves having to deal with their decision to join this pact? Have they finally found their reason to stay?

the rolesThere are no set roles for this open roleplay. However, there are some guidelines for character creation to ensure others are miseducated about certain topics and their mental illness isnβt romanticised. Before posting your character sheet, you will be required to pitch your character idea within the discord server. From there, you will create your character sheet to be approved.
When creating your character, I ask for three things: your character must be over the age of eighteen (including their face claim), you do thorough research on any mental illness topics to ensure your characterβs portrayal isnβt romanticised or harmful, and for face claims to be realistic.all are welcome
rule oneFollow all RPNation rules. Respect everyone, fade to black for erotic content or extreme gore, and be mature with sensitive matters. This roleplay will explore some dark themes - However, all of these scenes will be kept to a PG rating, or writing in full details on our discord. We also do not condone glamourising, romanticising or fetishizing mental illnesses. This means making a mental health diagnosis desirable, fascinating or attractive.rpn guidelines
rule twoBecause of the themes of this roleplay, writers must be 18+. As much as I hate not being able to open it up to everyone, this roleplay will be exploring dark, adult themes.eighteen plus
rule threeDiscord is a must for OOC. In the server, we will discuss plot lines, NPC development, and various other roleplay-related agendas. We will also be spending time bonding and getting to know each other a bit more! Our discord server will also have a trigger warning channel in which we ask our writers to write things that may be triggering to them and will be avoided within the roleplay.discord needed
rule fourExpectations of posting? Well, I understand that people can get busy with real life. However, I do ask if you could try posting at least once a week to keep the RP alive and the story moving. There will be no posting order (unless discussed in the server and everyone wishes to proceed with one), and we will break the roleplay up into "chapters". I'd love for the word count to at least hit the 500 word mark. Don't just give us a bone: we want some juicy meat too please. If you're unable to post within the one-week timeframe, all I ask is that you let us know prior so we don't think you've fallen off the edge of the Earth.post expectations
rule fiveCommunication is the key! If you're struggling with something or need to take a break - let me know! Also, I know personalities may clash or you might struggle to plot with someone. That's okay! It's natural! But it gives you no right to be a horrible person to someone. Please communicate with me if you're struggling so we can resolve it!communication
rule sixYou are in no way required to use bbcode for any aspects of this roleplay (character sheets/in-character posts etc). If you do use coded sheets or posts, I ask for them to be mobile-friendly. If you have any issues with any codes at all, let me know and I can help to create/fix them!bbcode
