  1. Ugh, brain chemistry, why have you got to be like this? We were doing so well before you decided to shift gears. #bipolar #bipolar2

  2. I’m sitting here on the sidelines cheering on other people who are getting things done. I do this from my couch where I have done nothing for over 15 days. Only leaving the house for smokes, no irl social contact, no shower, bad diet, sleeping more than awake.

    But go you! You did it. I’m proud of you.

  4. Looking through an old hard drive, I found these. Guess I've been wanting to draw about my #bipolar2 experience for a while. They are dated 2015.

  5. CW: #Bipolar2, mental health, pessimism

    I want to write a graphic novel about #bipolar2, buuuut

    I don't know how/don't really want to make it end "I'm optimistic!" Because I'm not. I've been dealing with this shitty disease for 25 years (hey, happy anniversary!). It's a forever disease. Prognosis is not great for old age: cognitive decline, lessened efficacy of meds, 1:5 suicide rate.

    Also, my meds have completely killed my ability to create.

  6. With World Bipolar Day around the corner, I went back to re-read a couple of the posts I wrote as I began processing my #Bipolar2 diagnosis, and wanted to share this one: "Here’s the thing about mental illness that we all know but don’t express often: It’s so incredibly personal. My brain chemistry, life experiences, day-to-day life – everything creates a unique experience for me."

  7. A manic urge to start my own Mastodon server has entered the chat. #bipolardisorder #bipolar2

  8. You know, I started this account to talk about my WORK, my fiction and my games.

    Next toot, I promise.

    My psychiatric "diagnosis" is a pile of bullshit. The only two DEFINITE diagnoses are #bipolar2 (with all the bells & whistles) and (complex) #PTSD.

    Everything else is "probably" or "NOS". And it's a long, long list. Personality Disorders A/B/C (NOS) SAD? GAD? IED? ASD? Tourette's?

    Nobody knows what the Hell's wrong with me, but everybody knows there's a Hell of a lot of it.

  9. CW: bipolar depression, suicide

    I am so tired of having to accept "good enough" as a result of my treatment regimen for #bipolar2

    Feeling flat and only able to do the barest minimum sucks. Barely keeping suicide locked in a mental closet is no kind of life.

    I miss my creativity, or just the ability to feel anything beyond existing.

    I am tired of the dry mouth, dry eye, constipation, and whatever other side effects I don't even know I'm experiencing because they're listed as "uncommon."

  10. CW: CW: Suicide

    Last spring when I was hospitalized for suicidal ideation, in my check-in with the psychiatrist the day before my departure, he asked me, "How are you in regard to your suicidal feelings?" I said, "I don't feel suicidal right now. But once you've been suicidal, it's always there as an option."

    I am NOT currently suicidal. I am safe. I'm just sharing a memory.

  11. I feel like putting #bipolar2 into my bio is something I should be afraid of, as well as expecting repercussions. The stigma is still very real.

  12. Finding an instance with good administration/moderation has been a trial, but I saw that there was room on this, my first choice. :blobcatmeltlove: I hope this can be my last migration.

    #Introduction - I was on the Fediverse two years ago and I’m here again. I’m a #writer, mainly of #poetry, sometimes #ShortFiction.

  13. I've decided to move servers. Not because the other one was bad, but because I finally found one for my specific type of disability--a mental illness. #bipolar2 and #ptsd to be exact.

    Anyway, for those of you here on the mental health server, I'm an author and blogger, currently working on a memoir about my journey navigating mental illness and abuse by family members and how I've been able to grow and find joy in spite of it all.
