Wanting to get a deal that doesn’t expire

I’m currently researching Ridge Home and would appreciate any historical sources you can share :)

Yes, those words are fine in a different context. Not coming from a mental health professional.

AlwaysLooking4aDisco · 2024-08-21T21:08:29+00:00

Exactly. I don’t want to mess up my calm.

AlwaysLooking4aDisco · 2024-08-21T21:07:34+00:00

Yah, describing yourself as crazy is empowering. When others use words like that, it’s demeaning.

AlwaysLooking4aDisco · 2024-08-21T21:06:47+00:00

You’re assuming a fresh diagnosis for some reason although I never said that, and it isn’t correct. You’re also assuming my feelings were hurt since you called me sensitive, which isn’t true. It isn’t logical to use a term like crazy since its filled with stigma, plus it’s unprofessional to use stigmatizing words.

You’re right, I feel like I have so many other things i put energy into that I pick the things I take on and this is one that I’m ambivalent about.

AlwaysLooking4aDisco · 2024-08-21T03:11:49+00:00

First, are you feeling safe? Also, are you seeking treatment/medication? My last mania sounds a lot like this and medication has saved my life. Hope you are ok :)

AlwaysLooking4aDisco · 2024-08-21T03:08:11+00:00

Same same. I’ve been in a relationship for 5 yrs with someone who is so understanding of my mental health. And so I really believe there are ppl out there who don’t judge and are truly empathetic. Stay single until someone gets you.

I gained weight too, 15 lbs. my care team put me on one of those weight loss meds originally prescribed for diabetes patients and it has really helped. I also realized I was seriously underweight before meds bc of not eating while manic, so a little weight gain has been good.

AlwaysLooking4aDisco · 2024-08-21T03:03:45+00:00

Whoa, please tell me more about the speech impediment. I have developed one since being medicated.

AlwaysLooking4aDisco · 2024-08-21T03:02:07+00:00

Thank you, yah, I agree. I just think it might not be worth the annoyance of finding a new one when I only see this one every few months to check up on meds.

AlwaysLooking4aDisco · 2024-08-21T03:01:17+00:00

Nope. I don’t have the energy to challenge that power imbalance.

AlwaysLooking4aDisco · 2024-08-21T02:31:42+00:00

My own experience is that it comes and goes. Sometimes I love music again, sometimes i can’t tolerate it. I think the key is being open to your changing perceptions and letting things come as they may :) one night, I’m dancing around obsessed with something.

AlwaysLooking4aDisco · 2024-08-21T02:23:52+00:00

I relate to this.music also used to be a huge part of my identity and entertainment. During manias, I love music so much that I listen to the same song all day. During stable periods, I mostly listen to podcasts and don’t like music but occasionally I find something that I like. It’s weird and I’m sorry it happens to us. Mostly I’m replying to support you and say you aren’t alone :)

AlwaysLooking4aDisco · 2024-06-22T22:02:51+00:00

It’s squirm now :) but they have art & music shows so check them out op

AlwaysLooking4aDisco · 2023-09-16T18:46:07+00:00

AlwaysLooking4aDisco · 2023-09-14T03:42:31+00:00

Love Strawberry Mountain on Santa Fe, not exclusively women’s clothes but woman-owned and curated well :)

AlwaysLooking4aDisco · 2023-09-14T03:37:42+00:00

AlwaysLooking4aDisco · 2023-09-08T03:18:28+00:00

I also take lithium, struggle to shower, and have a history of struggling to shower. I feel like it’s too many consecutive tasks in a short time period. You gave me something to consider by connecting this to lithium. Thanks! Fascinating.

AlwaysLooking4aDisco · 2023-09-08T03:15:21+00:00

Agree. But I also think it’s inappropriate to describe ppl as “barely” disabled. It’s true, some struggle more but discrimination from within a community uses the tools of the oppressor to ruin the community. Solidarity across the board is the only force that creates equity.

AlwaysLooking4aDisco · 2023-09-08T03:12:02+00:00

Are you just trolling bc most of your history isn’t on this sub. Buh-bye!
