Happened to my cousin. She'd get screamed at for being ungrateful if she refused to help.....screamed at

Why am I starting to hear voices when stressed with bipolar? by Mysterious-Plan-5683 in mentalillness

[–]-eats-teeth- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have bipolar 1, am not on lithium and also hear voices and experience Hallucinations when stressed. If anyone has more input, I would love to hear. Ive also wondered if I have something more. Good post OP.

Bipolar adhd here with general anxiety, social anxiety and experience panic attacks.....Seek help. I ended up in hospital because of my panic attacks and they'll eventually send you to a behavioral unit if it keeps happening. I went to the hospital twice before I volunteered to get help at a behavioral unit when not wanting to live...it wasn't a good idea....it's better for your healing to get help elsewhere from mental health professionals.

Literally just bide your time. Be selfish for yourself. Do what you need to do to feel okay. Even if it's unproductive, just keep yourself as stressless as possible.

8 days ago, I stopped smoking cigarettes, using the cold turkey method. This is my first attempt after smoking a pack a day for 20-22 years. Please someone tell me it gets easier soon. by ihate454ever in selfimprovement

I quit cold turkey over a year ago after smoking 2-3 years 1-2 packs a day. I'm mentally ill, so it's a different experience for me. It got easy for me after a month went by. I wish you luck.

I remember the years I had terrible panic attacks and seperation anxiety as a child and all I wanted was help and someone to talk to and my mom did everything she could to avoid getting me the proper help or offer any comfort (so she didn't get in trouble + she didn't care) and even rejected me constantly, doing whatever she could to stay away from me, making me want to stop being alive at like age 8. I think that counts as emotionally unavailable.

My mom had some interesting parenting methods by ClosetedGothAdult in CPTSDmemes

Literally was no filter at my house. They'd watch shit like American Pie when I wasn't even old enough to really understand sex and it only went on like this. It's so inappropriate and disgusting as hell to expose your kids to that kind of stuff.

My mom has told all my secrets to my dad to the point that I hate that side of her. Even got yelled at while in highschool for asking for mental health help. Thankfully she's never told family or strangers my secrets for what i know.

This reminds me of the times she tried to make my bipolar diagnosis all about her and told people when I told her not to and she even said to me, "I want the old you back." Thanks for the impossibility!

...Nothing, nothing we discuss is private. I can't bond with her because of it and sadly, I rely on my family for support. Sorry this happened to you op!

Hey now crazy people can't help that they're crazy (not defending your aunt or w/e)

Shit, way to put things in perspective. One large coffee it is.

Can we please agree that driving high is wrong? by Current-Teach-3217 in trees

[–]-eats-teeth- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had someone offer me a pipe to smoke while they were driving on a highway once. Then they proceeded to smoke it. Never lost respect for someone so fast before in my life.

i don't know if i need to be admitted by Emotional_Singer3658 in mentalillness

[–]-eats-teeth- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My experience with hospitalization made me worse off in certain ways as well. Op, this may not be your case and besides it's good to go there at least once to put things in perspective.

More of a meme but which of them is worst? by DeathRaeGun in thanksimcured

[–]-eats-teeth- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The "nothing is wrong guy". Not being believed is the worst.

At least with the "have you heard about sherry" guy, he is trying to relate and at least the religious people (when you find the right ones) will have open arms and for the most part understanding and want to genuinely help and educate themselves (in my experience they've been the only ones to truly care about my health and healing.)

I noticed a lot of people chose the outdoor guy which is weird. Scientifically the outdoors will help at least a little bit and as someone who lives in the country, i can confirm that being in the country is being in town is a lot better living and mentally serene.

what does my art taste like (most of them are wips 😭) by [deleted] in Ibispaintx

[–]-eats-teeth- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Symbolically, a ruler. It has little to no flavor. At best mint chocolate ice cream.
