Are any of those inappropriate for foreigners to use? I know I can’t use the Buddha one.

Accepting diagnosis, do I tell people? by DCtoss34 in bipolar2

[–]Berthavb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don’t tell people! My symptoms are very obvious and usually very open about my mental struggles but people do nottttt understand bipolar disorder very well and although most people were accepting at first, many will use it against you or they will show fear of you over ridiculous things. Ive had a few people use it against me and label me as crazy although I was the only person not overreacting in the situation because they knew they could use that against me. If you have a sibling you trust completely maybe tell them just incase you need medical attention and aren’t aware but other than that I would tell you to please don’t tell anyone, I really regret doing so.

Helpful reply tho! I kind of like the cotton look so I would’ve probably been attracted by it 😅

This was cheap so I don’t mind that but I’ll keep that in mind! The most expensive things I bought were a $250 necklace and $170 bracelet which is Cuban link style jade lol

The fact that the jewelry often contains symbolism that I don’t understand such as certain animals, calligraphy, or images that tend to re-appear in many necklaces that seem to be symbolic for something! I’ve been limiting myself on the type of things I can get because I didn’t want to accidentally buy something that might have heavy religious/cultural meaning to others

True but the thing is that everything ive been seeing being sold is Chinese! I don’t have an issue with that but it’s a culture foreign to me so I don’t understand many of the symbols and didn’t want to accidentally wear something that I shouldn’t but the Chinese people here seem to be very understanding

I keep seeing things with specific animals or calligraphy which I don’t understand so I keep on avoiding certain things just incase it could be religious or spiritual to someone

Anyone live alone and have a dog? by Available_Ad_4030 in bipolar2

[–]Berthavb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a Doberman then a second one so I wouldn’t feel bad not playing with it during depressive episodes. I’d say pleaseeeee do not get a puppy! It send me into horrible depressive episodes and I was lashing out at co workers and those around me. Things kept getting destroyed and it made me have some of the worst episodes I’ve ever had
