I like when I watch tv and I hear something like, "Sharks are becoming more dangerous to man." ..aka man keeps going where there's sharks lol or the other one I like is when the flock of birds got stuck in the plane engine, "When birds attack!". Attack what, that propeller? Yeah I saw how they...

Feeling "blocked" is super common with me too. I've started so many classes that I didn't finish, I should get a degree for most classes began, then ditched. Instead I got a huge bill. Half-started projects and countless failures of different things can wear on you after a while. I started...

On Effexor XR 150 and Prazosin 2mg Bipolar I, PTSD, Fibromyalgia, Raynaud's (primary), Ulcerative Colitis. It's like a bag of fun. I got so many doctors, I forget who does what. Sometimes they aren't doing anything so it's cool. The meds for bipolar and fibro do not like each other at all...

Remeron(mirtazapine) made my dreams so terrifying that I had to stop it completely. That, and I had this weird testy attitude all day long that didn't wear off until dinner time. But as for being exhausted, yes, yess, yesss. I'm pretty sure I micro-sleep as people are talking to me...

I decided to gorge on ice cream just before I fell asleep last night, around 1am. Thing is, I'm lactose intolerant lmao so every 30 minutes I awoke violently running for the bathroom. That went on until about 5:30, then my alarm went off at 6. The only thing that would have made it better is...

I... must have the worst eating habits of any human being I have ever met. Imagine an 8 year old with free reign over the choice to eat an apple, or a pixie stick. It's like.. I go from inhaling every bit of sugar from the house to completely avoiding food for a day or so. But it's not just...

My fear is that as people run around worrying about social monkey stuff, something catastrophic like a million foot tidal wave will put us in our place. Then, the true 'hillbilly' will be the only ones left. That's not scary, though. I could live on squirrels and moonshine. It's not so much...

One thing that I didn't know about before, but absolutely love is that often times therapists will do what's called an "outreach" program. That's when they will visit with you at your home for an hour a week or two. It helps when you're not entirely on the same day as everyone else. I found...

Have you every considered that the family may have a disorder than runs through it? Sounds like a personality disorder. Narcissists usually don't focus on their downfalls, but say borderline personality might take everyone hostage for a while (or forever). I have an older brother that I feel...

If I could freeze time, then I could rob every bank in America.

I went from doctors refusing the prescribe to me because of the drug past, to doctors begging me to take something and me refusing. There was a while I didn't trust myself with any substance, but I get that it is too extreme to say always or never. I ended up taking meds just to tolerate...

Effexor seems to be more helpful in those with Bipolar disorder. It does feel like someone shoved an extension cord up your butt and flipped the switch, but it does get better. I've been on and off of it, and the side effects do go away. But it sounds like those aren't side effects, but...

My eyes twitch in their sockets. I'm sure it must look like I'm on drugs, minus the good feelings lol. Restless leg can be a symptom of something else, though. Stress that brings on nerve pain can make legs pretty restless. Most of the time I don't notice that my legs ache. Depression sorta...

I understand this perfectly. My PTSD trips up my bipolar constantly. I've had false memories, delusions, catastrophic overreactions, you name it. It usually happens in a period of mania and can be super scary. It's like.. having a dream that is so vivid that you can't tell if it really...

I would make sure you have a current neuropsych every 3 or 4 years. The scales have changed a bit in the last 5 or so. My son was diagnosed as PDD with ADHD, but it didn't fit. I knew he was delayed socially, but the medication wasn't even touching the symptoms. I had the test redone 3 years...

I used to hike in the acres around my neighborhood by myself as a teenager. It was sooooooo relaxing, like a vacation in the middle of the day. I think watching too many awful headlines in the news made me fearful of being alone in the woods. That, and countless horror movies. I haven't...

I think the difference between the fantasy and the reality is the want or need for the care afterward or during. I felt that way for a while, that I wanted people to care and care what happened to me. When things got really bad that I started to lean towards not caring what happened to me...

I explain it sometimes like this, "When I'm triggered from PTSD, I get an adrenaline rush that puts me in a fight or flight reactive state. It is not something that can be simply talked down. It's a chemical reaction.". That way they understand it's not something that I can snap out of like...

My old dog, Rufus, taught me patience. He was a Bijon Frise mix, and had a bark that would break the barrier of the space/time continuum. After a while of being really at a loss as to what to do with this ever-barking dog, I realized that he might actually want something lmao. I had to get...

omg I'm the hottest topic in my family. After a while, you get used to it and it becomes funny but along the way it can really be harsh. It's rather similar to someone pissing on your head, and telling you it's raining. Sometimes it's difficult to separate that completely insult to the...

1. when I feel like I might not be myself entirely due to emotion. 2. I tell them I'm taking a time-out, and I give them the evil eye. 3. Breathing in and out exactly the same amount of time, carefully coaching myself not to talk unless it's from the right place. 4. I smoke while basically...

I don't think Mother Teresa would put up with that guy for long. I'd say you have patience that I envy. It'd be like "I miss you!" and then I'd be like "Thanks, genius." I used to be so serious when it came to people's feelings but some of em are really, really stupid :\

It's so hard to say goodbye to people we still have to see. I always thought goodbye was goodbye, but these days, not so much. It takes a tremendously courageous person to mourn the loss of a person that was once someone else, but not gone yet. Hardest thing I ever had to learn so far.

Golden Surf The entire day, like a golden surf, hurls itself against the black rocks of the dark of the night. It seems to me that there should be a plan for the dark, a plan that that involves speed, light, and you by my side, you, by my side. Must we stay here or can we go? I...

You know, nobody ever asks me that. I got a good feeling why, though. I look like Gollum met the girl from the Ring. It ain't easy lookin this good. ..took me all night.
