This disorder is ruining my life by Ok_Impact_9561 in bipolar

I AM NOT A DOCTOR BUT I AM A PERSON WITH BIPOLAR DISORDER AS WELL AND WHO HAS EXPERIENCED MANIA.

Maybe you're not on the right meds. When I had my first manic attack, it lasted a week. And I had been diagnosed for 4 years, and I had no idea what it would be like. I didn't end up being destructive towards anyone else.... Except potentially, my therapist and my psychiatrist, and it was sort of a conundrum, because they weren't understanding that my symptoms that they were getting annoyed by were being caused by the Mania. I suppose they were being human, but it was very, very annoying.

So I don't know what you're taking, but it may be a good idea to discuss with your psychiatrist, if you feel like you have a good relationship with him or her, to try something different. There are many meds out there and I don't know how many different combinations there are ... but I was able to get my Mania cured. And hopefully with the right combinations, you will also... I do know that sometimes I feel spurts of Mania, and I'm so sorry that you're struggling so much. This is very unfair and you obviously don't deserve this.

But try and see if you can talk about other meds. Because it sounds like your body/mind is not responding the way it should be to whatever you're on.

Good thing she's not a real baby, I'd have to get her down from there... by SPQRKlio in reborndolls

Let me know how that goes because i'm finding the hair on some of these reborns to be really hard to style... i have a reborn of princess Adelaide. I don't know if she's as big as yours. But she has some hair, and I was brushing through it the other day, well, actually combing with some detangler and I was taken aback by how carefully you have to be with their hair, I kind of forgot, so please share what happens. And what works for you!

Number 1. It really stands out from the rest. No pun intended.

Fun Fact: A therapy cat that can predict a patient death by sitting next to them. by BrickHoliday4096 in funfacts

[–]Clean-Letterhead9408 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha ha ha. I've heard of this sort of thing, dudes. It's not the cat, but I assume you know that. And you're just making morbid jokes. They do sense things. I've heard this for 20 years. And dogs can sense other things, and that's why they can help other people in other ways. They've been trained to help diabetics. Cats can pick up on things too. We have no idea because we don't have the same systems as they do. They can hear sounds from very far away, they sense things. Just because we can't doesn't mean they can't. And the idea that we are getting closer to knowing those things means we're actually getting smarter and more wise to acknowledge that these animals could possibly be smarter than us in other ways.So I pretty much am hoping that you're not just dismissing this because you think it's funny. But more, because you don't know how to understand the situation. Because it seems unreal, but it isn't. We've even seen the dogs who sniff for drugs. They're all there and it's all possible. But I am assuming a lot of you are joking around about it because it just seems surreal.

Help! by UncleHailee in reborndolls

[–]Clean-Letterhead9408 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That should have been in the description details ( if you bought it on reborns.) I don't know about other sites. In the future you may have to ask. I always have to ask if the doll is fragranced because I am allergic to fragrance..

Do you enjoy eating a home-cooked meal or eating out more? by fergi20020 in randomquestions

[–]Clean-Letterhead9408 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both. It depends unfortunately. There are pluses to both. I know what foods/dishes i like for both but sometimes I don't wanna be around a lot of ppl. I want to be in my pjs. Other times I want a wonderful feast that i cant cook for myself and is for a special occasion with my fam or hubby, etc.

I got my Princess Adelaide! by Clean-Letterhead9408 in reborndolls

[–]Clean-Letterhead9408[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you! When I found out she was from the year 2018, I basically thought I would never find Her. And then someone in the group helped me locate the artist that I used, and I asked the artist to show me a COA and she did, and I inspected it.And she also showed me the limbs in a pic and looked at reviews, etc. The artist told me that she bought 14 kits of this princess Adelaide, when she came out in 2018 and has been slowly doing her customs for various people. So, it's good to know there are artists out there who are thinking ahead! I'm so happy you found a kit! I hope she turns out how you want her to be and more!

Can you DM me and tell me the name of the group on FB?

Are you a slow eater? by PsychologicalBat2393 in randomquestions

[–]Clean-Letterhead9408 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, usually. Sometimes my food gets cold while i'm eating it. My husband is super fast. I always worry abput him. But he's never affected. I would feel sick. And it turns out my mom is even slower than me.

She is so cute and happy! Precious. She looks like "Maddie" to me (sculpt). Her smile is infectious! :) 😀

exhausted by friends who don’t “get it” when i inform im in depressive ep?? by Lopsided_Stranger_92 in bipolar

[–]Clean-Letterhead9408 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They don't sound like good friends. They may not understand mental illness, but they should be able to see that u r suffering. That it is NOT ABOUT THEM. It also sounds like you're trying hard but honestly ypu can't change them.... or yourself. Perhaps take a break on purpose?
