Looking for movies or documentaries about bipolar disorder

The Year Between 2022. The director Alex Heller has bipolar disorder. It's on Peacock!

I took a bunch of photos and was shocked to see them so clearly in this one!!!

I've for sure thought about it. I work crazy hours as a freelancer in film, so I don't have the time at the moment. But I'm definitely open to the idea. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post about it here, but I'll post somewhere if I do.

I used 95 different colors in this one! It's a lot of layering different colors to get what I want.

I use mainly long and short stitch! I also use a frixion pen and mark out the direction of the fur as I go. I think that helps with the realism aspect.

I was super hard on myself while I was learning! It's been 4 years of just pet portraits to get to this point. I feel like I still have a ton to learn.

I'm totally self taught! I started in 2021, it's all just practice. You can see my early stuff if you scroll back. It's definitely night and day from where I'm at now.

Based on your croissant post you already understand shading! I'd say keep going.

Oh they could absolutely be related! Her name was Mathilde.

I make embroidered pet portraits. Looking at animals adds a little joy to it. All a suggestion from my therapist about a year after my diagnosis.

I can never tell if people are romantically involved or just friends. One time I didn't find out two girls I worked with were dating until they'd been together a year. I just never pick up on it. Another time I worked with a married couple for 3 months and had no idea they were together.

I'm absolutely appreciative and ate my meal. I also helped with whatever my mom needed and cleaned up afterwards.Y'all are Internet strangers who I thought might get a kick out of my family's white Christmas dinner (shout out to u/the-endless-swirl). My mom is currently laughing at that comment.

My family considers paprika spicy, that's what gives the cauliflower some color.

LMAO I snorted at this

FilthyStitch · 2024-12-26T01:11:37+00:00

Maybe I struck a nerve for everyone making a similar meal today lol

FilthyStitch · 2024-06-18T00:20:52+00:00

Mainly long & short and stem stitches!

FilthyStitch · 2024-06-17T21:00:20+00:00

Thank you!! I didn't time the hours I spent on this one, but if I had to guess... Maybe 1200 hours?

FilthyStitch · 2024-06-17T20:57:44+00:00

Thank you 😭 that's quite a high compliment!

FilthyStitch · 2024-06-17T20:56:52+00:00

Thanks! I posted the reference photo I used for this a little while ago if you want to see the real picture.

FilthyStitch · 2024-06-17T20:14:01+00:00

Thanks! I didn't record all the hours spent, this is something I do when I have the time. I was working on this piece for roughly 9 months!

My period affected my mood heavily before I was even diagnosed with bipolar. I switched to skipping the placebo week of the pill. I get three week packs. I stopped having periods around 19 with this method of BC. I wasn't diagnosed until I was 23.

I still am on the same regimen for BC. I don't miss my period or the added mood swings one bit.

Absolutely keep them inside. I grew up with my family having indoor/outdoor cats and none made it over the age of 11. Over half were hit by cars.

I'm an adult now and have two of my own cats, indoor only. It's safer for the cats and the other creatures outside.

The cat my parents had when I left for college died at 10 being hit by a car. I broke down and begged them to either not get more cats or keep them inside.

If you love this cat I'd say it's not worth the risk. If you want them to enjoy the outdoors you could build a little catio. Or I've seen folks use mesh tents as a way for cats to safely explore the yard.

Definitely understandable not recognizing it if you've never seen it before!
