INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Use a garbage bag with a cinch for the easiest way to close it. Closing the bag builds up the concentration of carbon dioxide inside and stimulates the mushroom spawn to grow faster. Place the garbage bag in a cardboard box if you want to keep it safer. The mushrooms do not need light as they establish. Keep the bag in a warm dark place, like a cabinet, to help the spawn colonize more quickly. The warmth mixed with the moisture in the cardboard pieces creates a humid environment that's perfect for mushrooms. The bag can be stored in a dark cabinet or even under your bed. While the bag should stay humid and moist, it should not have pools of standing water at the bottom. If you find excess water, drain the bag into a sink before putting it back. This should only have to be done once since the water is excess that has drained from the cardboard. Don't disturb the bag during this time since the mushroom spawn is starting to produce mycelium, which looks like white strands, and will eventually fruit. The cardboard will be completely colonized by the mushroom after this time. Set a reminder on your phone or in a planner so you know when to return to your mushrooms. After the third week, check every 2 weeks to see if the mycelia have formed. It will look like the cardboard is covered in white strands if it's ready. If it isn't, close the bag and leave it alone for another week or two before checking it again. Opening the bag exposes the mycelia to oxygen and will stimulate it to start producing mushrooms. Make sure there is enough light getting to your mushrooms. A good rule of thumb is to have it bright enough so you could easily read a book. During this time, you may see small mushrooms starting to form. Maintain a humid environment for the mushrooms by using a spray bottle with tap water. Wet the walls of the bag to keep the mushrooms moist. Mushrooms may not tolerate water sprayed directly on them. If you live in a dry climate, spray 3 times per day.

SUMMARY: Place the cardboard squares and spawn into a garbage bag and close it. Keep the bag in an area between 5065F (1018C). Open the bag after 2 days to check for pools of water. Leave the bag alone for 3-6 weeks. Open the plastic bag once you see white strands covering the cardboard. Move the bag to a sunny area when the mycelia is present. Spray the inner walls of the bag with water twice daily.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: The person may be very close to you: a parent, spouse, or child, perhaps. If she has a mental illness, you're not hurting her by having her committedyou are giving her an opportunity to heal, or at least get the treatment she needs. You are also doing this in a way that will prevent her from causing physical or emotional injury to others. If you are struggling to manage the stress and anxiety related to helping a friend or loved one with a mental illness, find someone to talk to who can help. Psychologists and Psychiatrists are available in your local area and can be located through the American Psychological Association and the American Psychiatric Association. Once released, a person who must manage mental illness will need structure in her life. You can be a big part of making that happen. A welcoming attitude might be exactly what the person needs. Every person has a need to feel a sense of belonging, and you can foster that for the person. Make it clear that you are genuinely concerned for the person and want her to be successful. It is important that she takes her medication, and attends therapy or support group meetings. These are likely to be a requirement of any treatment program. Help the person be accountable to her program. Ask her if there is anything you can do to help her stay committed to attending. Be kind, but don't let her slack off. Be resourceful if the person needs your help in the future. Mental illness is a disease therefore it can be managed, but not cured. Relapses will most likely happen, and everyone involved should not consider a relapse a failure. However, treatment will be needed following each relapse. Once you go through the process of helping a person with a mental illness, you will have the know-how, confidence and information necessary to help others. There is a tendency to think you are the only one who experiences the thoughts and feelings you are having. You must understand that many others have felt exactly what you are feeling and have struggled with getting a person with a mental illness the help they need. Fight the urge to push yourself to the outside where you might isolate yourself and not get the help that you need.

SUMMARY: Remain strong and focus on healing. Seek professional help for yourself. Accept the person back into your life. Ask the person about her progress. Recognize the resources you have gained. Realize you are not alone.
