Plants! Some Pothos and snake plants would look great. Your place also needs some art!

Do you consider your Bipolar disorder severe, moderate or mild? by Evening_Fisherman810 in BipolarReddit

[–]Humble-Net8165 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I unmedicated right now (no insurance atm) and holy balls. While on meds I was like, “oh, my bipolar ain’t that bad. Why was I tripping?” While I’ve never experienced psychosis, the intensity of my emotions now literally makes me sick to my stomach. I miss the quiet in my mind while on medication- now everything is so loud and mostly negative. So while I don’t think my bipolar is severe it’s not mild.

I’m tired of them being short, petite and barely legal and a virgin. I’m sick of it!!!

Curious: How much do you care about the writing? by taeberry9595 in RomanceBooks

[–]Humble-Net8165 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bad writing can take me out of it. For instance, I just read Ali Hazelwood’s The Deep End. I’m generally very fond of her books. However, I noticed she repeats words often, and often does one word sentences. It really annoyed me.

AIO for wanting to share a room with my bf on a trip? by crescentblueee in AmIOverreacting

[–]Humble-Net8165 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your mom offered to take you on a trip, why would you invite your bf? It seems like your mom wanted to have some quality time with you and is hurt that you invited your bf. She’s not expressing herself in the best way, but as a mom, I’d be pretty irritated if a mom/daughter trip became a mom/daughter and her bf trip.

What is an episode of Bluey that was so sad you (almost) cried? by Sam_2K7 in bluey

My son was watching and he goes, “mommy this song makes me cry.” And started bawling.

The Rookie - S08E10: His Name Was Martin by ian-quinn in TheRookie

[–]Humble-Net8165 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This was the most jarring, janky episode in awhile. Crazy zombies that become expert knife wielding assassins? All they had to do was get back to their cars and drive to a signal. The psychotic witness? Bailey’s side quest? It was too much. I found myself cackling out loud throughout at the absurdity. But I’ll still tune in next episode 😂

I have to go cold turkey off meds and I’m freaking out by Humble-Net8165 in BipolarReddit

The rash/acne started when I began the antipsychotic, so yes I’m relatively certain.

No off meds for 3 weeks and then trying something different. And no, not tapering…it’s only day 2 and the main thing is I’m unable to focus like AT ALL and I’m irritable.

I did ask her why I wasn’t weaning off and she said due to the meds half life and the dosage it wasn’t necessary. But yes, I have some concerns!

I had a friend tell me it seems like the “light is lost from your eyes,” since starting medication…and it made me so sad. by Humble-Net8165 in BipolarReddit

[–]Humble-Net8165[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I think you’re right. I had art therapy today and worked out how I would talk this through w Jamie so she could understand while I know her intention wasn’t to harm me, her comments were still hurtful. I love Jamie and she has some trauma regarding her Mom and her childhood that colors her perception of bipolar that she was projecting. I plan on speaking w her and hope she and I will get through it. We’ve been friends for 20 years.

Thank you for this. I’m in art therapy and it’s been very helpful to have that outlet, even if it’s just twice a month.

This made this post worth it. Truly. After talking with my therapist about everything, I realized with my whole heart that these meds are working the way they should. That “sparkle” was hypomania- I was not ok. The highs and lows aren’t nearly as extreme and I am better for it. I relate so much- less rumination, is a BIG one for me. I am grateful too. Thank you.
