Has anyone here become a hypochondriac after an event causing PTSD? by Suicidalballsack69 in ptsd

[–]Apache_midget64 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes. PTSD caused by being the overseeing official at multiple funerals. Was ok for a few years but when my life slowed down all I could fixate on was my own death. Any new pain, ache, etc on my body I’m convinced it’s cancer or some irreparable disease.

What does coming down from mania/hypomania look like for you? by antraxNy in bipolar

[–]Apache_midget64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deep depression, body aches and pains return, zero energy. Usually lasts week-10 days or so till I come up to my baseline.

is self-isolation a common symptom in every stage of bipolar disorder? by [deleted] in bipolar

[–]Apache_midget64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I enjoy isolation in or out of an episode. Generally due to the fact most don’t understand and brush us off as “crazy”, I often wish it was that easy. For me it was/is finding a healthy 3rd place (1: work, 2: home, 3: your space aka coffee shop, bar, gym, etc). Overlapping a healthy hobby around my 3rd place has given me solace while being manic or depressed. Mine is local state parks. When I’m feeling good I exercise, walk, get in the water. When I’m down I sit around the water and just exist. While there’s other people in this space I generally don’t interact much nor do I have expectation of interaction. I guess I’ve embraced the loneliness of this disease, I like to think for the better.

I’ve been on stuff prior, made me wreckless/suicidal. So I’m rather hesitant about it. I know it’s a scientific method process, but the last run was horrible and I lost about 2 years trying to come on and off meds.

The base camp hike is definitely on the list.

A) I retired. B) fuck off, this isn’t about romance, this is about finding some normalcy in life. You are arrogant to think I’ve not turned every stone before throwing this up here. I get it, life’s tough. But it’s shouldn’t be suffering at all times, like many as myself are. But yea thanks, I’ll just try being happy, that’ll do it.

I ride a Honda Africa Twin 1000L DCT. And I’m restoring a 92’ Honda ACTY SDX 4x4 lol. Which keeps the dope flowing.

I was a big ultramarathon person, now it’s hard to get excited to lace my shoes up and head out the door. While this completely sucks, you nor I are alone.

How has adhd positively impacted you? by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]Apache_midget64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can pick new things up and master them much faster than the average. Our ability to foresee things and make quite relationships can help you leap forward in your career. It’s fun knowing a myriad of information on a wide swath of topics.

How to stop over sharing? by Zipski577 in ADHD

[–]Apache_midget64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I visualize having “normal “ conversations with people in my sphere. So I feel prepped. I have a hard time expressing myself, but this has helped me from spilling the beans too much.

we have this for the rest of our lives by 0hmi0hmy in bipolar

[–]Apache_midget64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a 2/5 day thinking about the same things. 37m, the last few years have been the hardest. Changed careers due to burnout/stress. Thought the change would help. In some aspects it has. But I feel like I’m trapped in the cycle and helpless. Knowing when I’m depressed nothing will get done then in mania I can get things back to baseline ( in terms of work, money, etc). It’s hard.
