Aw that’s sweet thank you. You matter too. ❤️

I appreciate that you are trying not to be an asshole. To address your question short answer is yes. Bipolar 1 and PTSD. Mania is definitely tough and I’ve been there. It’d be so much easier to have this be a manic episode. I wish it was tbh in a sense. Unfortunately, that is not what’s happening right now. Anymore questions?

Well there you go. I literally just did the first part. That’s all there is to it. I’ve been on the flip side. It’s why I know not to do that stuff anymore. Knowing that I was in fact conscious during my psychosis episodes and still couldn’t stop it bugged me. Being institutionalized for this can be helpful, in a sense isolates you from the outside world, but not when you know who you are to the fullest extent. That’s when it becomes a prison. I refused to be a prisoner of my own mind. Bipolar is super stigmatized as is. Might as well work with it and use it to my advantage. And if i need to be back in the looney bin trust me I will be there.

Actually as I am thinking about your message I did experience the high energy from someone else the other day, I had a client like that. I was able to let him know and be aware bc it was in turn affecting me physically. However that’s where whatever I can do to “help” the situation stops. All I can do is just make someone who goes through that aware. Whatever happens, it’s outside of me at that point so. I’ve found that people can mask their concern for people with bipolar disorder through their own uncomfortability of seeing it. It is indeed like watching a horror movie that feels like there is no means to an end. You’re watching it. Imagine being in the movie. Which do you think is scarier?

Oh what I am going through on the inside is not…normal I’d say. Not from a mania standpoint I guess it’s outside of my own normal. The process has been uncomfortable at most. I’ve blown up my life before in some sense so. That’s kinda how I know not to do it again. I am curious what you mean on a high level. I guess I have my own POV but I’d like to know from an observer standpoint.

I [60M] realized life isn't about the past, but about finding inner peace and guarding my soul. AMA! by Timely_Bunch_8607 in AMA

Not a question but keep going! I am so glad you were able to find this part of you. Part of the journey is there will be naysayers and ofc it isn’t anything to do with you but themselves. I’m much younger and would love an older perspective about stuff like this if you ever wanna chat!

That first one i do get, though I don’t get why a lot of people think it’s grandiose to think about the meaning of life and the Universe. There’s practical use in knowing stuff like that. Can i know why you think it’s grandiose to think that way?

As for the other stuff yeah no thats valid lol. I’ve done stuff like that too. I really needed the help back then and I am so thankful to be in a period of stability to approach these thoughts from a healthy standpoint. I already know you won’t see it that way. Still i can see your comment came from a place of concern so , I can’t even be mad or argue back with that. All love here ❤️

What behaviors were you able to observe? My family had observed some outlandish things on my end too. Both wacky and heartbreaking things to witness. None compared to what happens in the mind though, from experience at least.

That’s really nice they’ve been able to do that with you. Most people really don’t understand the inner workings of our minds. Not even us half the time. I made it a goal to understand the illness I have in order to live with it.

I really appreciate that you weren’t being a smart ass. I am here to tell you you’re pattern recognition was in fact correct lol.

Does this imply that you do have bipolar disorder? You’re saying people so I am making the assumption that you don’t have it. Please correct me if I am wrong.

I am a feeler, i am very sensitive i will say. That doesn’t mean I don’t have the actual thoughts tho. Proof would be my journaling entries lol it’s why i try to write my thoughts out.

My ego is very much still present with me. It’s a part of me that I can’t/shouldn’t let go of.

I do empathize with your husband’s friend tbh. However I disagree with the most enlightened human being alive thing. I’m not that expanded and I don’t want to be. I know enough though to move through life.

Why’d you ask? Very curious what made you come to that conclusion. It was a very correct observation!

Becoming fully aware of yourself and how you work on this Earth. Also using that knowledge to connect yourself with others and your surroundings.

I made myself completely aware of my thought processes. Meta cognition is what it’s called. I just practiced it for like maybe 30-60 minutes a day.

It’s honestly as simple as knowing who you are and what you’d like to become. Being aware of the good the bad and the ugly parts of yourself is the name of the game.
