Hey there, here's a review for you!
So, the first paragraph is quite nice. It makes the reader curious about what the speaker just saw and so pulls the reader into the story to continue reading. This was made effective by the ellipse at the end and the question at the beginning. I like that the sentence structure of the second one isn't perfect because it is a diary entry which is meant to be informal so don't worry about changing that. So well done for the first paragraph
In the second paragraph I don't think it's necessary to capitilise "doctors" and "physiatrists" unless you want them to be of importance within the piece. And, also in this paragraph, the sentence "They follow me through the mirrors like a experienced hunter tracking his deer..." needs an "an" instead of an "a".
There aren't any other specifics I have but I do feel that the piece as a whole is really effective in creating mystery and keeping the reader interested even though the speaker does not exactly say who "they" is/are. The reader doesn't fully understand which I think is useful in this genre as it forces the reader to read on. I also like the informal nature of the diary entry and how the speaker seems to confide in the diary. It's a good piece, overall.
9/10.
