  1. A quotation from Horace

    Let the man who has acquired Enough not ask for MORE.
    A house and acreage, a pile of bronze and gold coins,
    Have never been able to lower the sick man’s fever
    Or drive out his worries. The proprietor must be well
    If he plans to enjoy the good things he’s gathered together.
     
    [Quod satis est cui contingit, nihil amplius optet.
    Non domus et fundus, non aeris acervus et auri
    Aegroto doniini deduxit corpore febres,
    on animo curas; valeat possessor oportet,
    Si conpertatis rebus bene cogitat uti.]

    Horace (65–8 BC) Roman poet, satirist, soldier, politician [Quintus Horatius Flaccus]
    Epistles [Epistularum, Letters], Book 1, ep. 2 “To Lollius,” l. 46ff (1.2.46-50) (14 BC) [tr. Palmer Bovie (1959)]

  7. Being hesitant about therapy. Now need it for PMDD/PME and other stuff. My thoughts

    Before therapy, I was very hesitant about going to regular therapy. Due to past experiences with therapist not being there for me like they needed to and I simply thought I did not need it. Like, I can do it all on my own with some support groups. To just sum it up. I have concluded, that I knew it was ok seeking other therapeutic things, like nature, music, relaxation/grounding exercises, along with support groups for PMDD/PME It was very valid and is still is, and will always be in use for […]

  14. 🚫no mens comments🚫

    Therapy actually wasn't a shit show.

    I wanted to talk about the anxiety I was feeling about visiting Greg in January, particularly around food and body image. It's something that I noticed last time I visited - his wife does keto and is very strict about it, and I found that was triggering for me and raising all these fears and anxieties that he would see what I was eating and judge me for that.

    We talked about how I can feel the dissonance between what I believe with my logical thoughts and what deep wounds I was carrying from childhood.

    We talked about things I can do more short term to help make sure I enjoy my time with Greg, and then also made plans to start EMDR when I get back to reprocess some of the trauma I carry around food and my body.

  15. I should've posted this before Halloween but I guess election day is also pretty scary 🙃

    archive.org/details/night-visi

    Night Visions is a 2001 horror anthology TV series that I used to watch in reruns on the SyFy Channel when I was in high school around 2005. They were going for a Twilight Zone vibe with Henry Rollins as the narrator. A few episodes stuck with me because they spoke to my particular flavor of mental illness, particularly 13A "Patterns." I think most people wouldn't find it scary, but if your anxiety also manifests as paranoia that you'll jinx things by thinking about them in the wrong way, it'll probably hit.

  16. 'The treatment of #ChronicallyIll and #DisabledPeople by welfare officials, including #benefits decisions subsequently linked to the deaths of vulnerable claimants, is to be formally investigated by #Britain’s #HumanRights watchdog.

    #EqualityAndHumanRightsCommission (#EHRC) said it would examine whether ministers at the #DepartmentForWorkAndPensions (#DWP) had acted #unlawfully by failing to protect claimants with #LearningDisabilities or severe #MentalIllness

  17. Those signed off feeling depressed classed as incapable of work, says Stride | Health policy | The Guardian

    Depression is NOT the same as what people commonly refer to being a bit depressed which is just a bit down. It's far more serious & you can't just 'pull your socks up' and get on with things.

  18. Just watched Gary Gulman: The Great Depresh and it's a great comedy special in a number of ways but one of them is that it successfully gave me hope that I can get better someday even tho I've been struggling for pretty much my entire life. So, thank you, Gary. That means a lot.

  19. My newest #substack article in a long-winded series about my ideas for the concept of a #WorkerCooperative MLM designed for #DisposablePeople like me who struggle with traditional employment due to #MentalIllness or physical challenges or societal #marginalization.

    "Capital gains at any cost on a quarterly balance sheet seems as much a madness as a tumor depleting the resources until the rapid, uncontrolled expansion kills both it and the host."

    I'm recovering from #MentalIllness so understand the struggle and the exhaustion it causes. but you don't have to fight it in silence. There's definitely a community on here. Embrace it 💖
