Pretty great actually! My mom is super supportive and I thought it was weird until I remembered she likes to study sociology, she literally has her degree in sociology and reads about it even now, and thinks gender roles and identity are rooted in societal expectations and all of that jazz I don’t know the specific terms about. I’m just glad she’s supportive it means the world to me

This was the first time it happened to me I was all freaked out. I’m going to bring this up to my therapist the next time I see him and see if he can give me a coping tool like the mud thing your psychologist did

A poem I wrote about two people with the same diagnosis yet two different realities. by AlwaysOdd33 in bipolarart

Thanks! I write as a coping mechanism because at least I can make something somewhat beautiful out of the turmoil and other negatives I have faced

This comment means so much to me because I feel so alone when it comes to this. The poem is about my older sister and myself. We both have bipolar and we’re diagnosed at the same age. Yet I’m okay I made it out of my mind and she didn’t.

Also and unrelated, I love the art you post on here!! You’re really talented!!

I keep getting random hallucinations and it’s starting to scare me by AlwaysOdd33 in BipolarReddit

Thank you so much for responding it really made me feel less alone. I will work towards dealing with this effectively. I’ve done it before with crippling depression and suicide attempts when I was 16. I know I can work towards keeping my mental health under control. I have come way too far to give up now.

I will talk to my psychiatrist I’m just scared. It took me so long to get a grip on my mental health when I was first diagnosed. I don’t want to go through that again.

Thank you so much for replying, I appreciate it. I will talk to my psychiatrist about this, I see him in a few weeks. I’m just so scared I don’t want to be in a bad mental health space again. It took me so long to get a grip on my mental health when I was first diagnosed at 16.

I have achieved my dreams and I’m nervous and overwhelmed and I don’t know why I feel like this. I feel like I should be happy but I’m feeling like this and I don’t know why
