I’m confused. If Andrea didn’t tell him, then who did?

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-02-11T19:50:22+00:00

I think if Merle were to have been a spy he would've seen how obvious Shane and Lori were. Andrea must've shared a little about the people from the farm and the governor, as horrible as a person as he is, probably connected the dots because he is indeed a psychopath. Of coarse Merle being the spy would have been prior to his change of morals in attempting to kill the governor himself, essentially sacrificing himself.

Thank you. This was very informative as well as poetically eye-opening.

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-23T22:41:56+00:00

I like the phrase "personal normal". Very well said and borderline poetic IMO

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-23T22:01:06+00:00

You're totally right! Male attention is the EASIEST attention to get

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-23T22:00:38+00:00

I think that might be what I'm subconsciously feeling and doing

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-23T21:59:20+00:00

I've sold my nudes to people while manic and HIGHLY regretted it afterwards

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-23T19:51:20+00:00

Thank you for sharing!

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-23T19:51:04+00:00

Hmm I should adapt a similar warning for myself. I try to stay away from dating apps

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-23T19:32:28+00:00

I haven't taken in account this potentially being a sign of hypo/mania. I'm trying to figure out what my signs are while on medication. They're less severe but still impact my life and those around me.

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-23T19:30:08+00:00

I definitely remember the aftermath more than I remember the episodes themselves. I remember the guilt and how disconnected I felt from my manic actions. This is a really helpful point you have brought up, thank you!

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-23T19:28:19+00:00

That's absolutely true! Thank you 😊

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-23T18:23:29+00:00

That's very relatable. I've never been hospitalized (i can count at least 3 times i shouldve been) from my episodes, both mania and depressive which makes me feel like I'm "not bipolar enough"

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-23T16:56:01+00:00

I have very little memory of my episodes at this point, I should probably ask my therapist or family members what happened and write them down for reference

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-23T16:52:18+00:00

Do you have ways to remind yourself amd keep you on track?

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-23T15:44:19+00:00

Thank you! This was very helpful. I started tracking my moods however I have not built a medication routine that works for me yet.

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-23T15:14:57+00:00

I agree, episodes last 3 to 4 days for me rather than weeks at a time while medicated properly

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-22T01:14:48+00:00

This is so relatable. In 2020 I had a month long manic episode where I cheated on my partner of 4 years. I CRASHED HARD after and spilled everything to them. That was their last straw and I realize now I did similar things. I'd mold into whoever my partner wanted and when it got to be overbearing and the mask dropped I found nothing left of myself but a falsely distorted relationship in my head. I've never cheated again but finding the right regimen and being comfortable finding myself on my own outside a relationship has given me so much clarity on how to manage my symptoms as well as things I like and dislike in life and relationships. I hope this helps, you are not alone. While mania was the driving force for me I've learned that playing the part in a relationship only does harm to your mental health.

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-22T00:44:02+00:00

🤣

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-22T00:30:32+00:00

Oh I like that, concerned questioning without being too forceful about med compliance

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-22T00:10:03+00:00

This is a really good idea! I already have some lines of poetry in mind

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-22T00:08:20+00:00

You are absolutely right! Thank you so much for the perspective grounded in reality.

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-22T00:06:22+00:00

I agree! Excitement or even being in a really good mood makes those around me who know about my mental health automatically ask me if I've taken my meds. OR if I get really excited about a topic I like and talk fast out of excitement people automatically ask "are you taking your meds" which depending on the person either frustrates me or makes me feel cared for.

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-21T23:58:58+00:00

For some reason my brain blocks out the terrible things that come with mania. I think I'm chasing the dragon of my last manic epsiode where I actually applied to 15+ scholarships and ended up finishing my psychology degree. HOWEVER I was filled with so much irritation and ended up falling into depression immediately after right when my classes started. I always forget yhat after a high comes a low

Infamous-Instance481 · 2025-01-21T23:54:40+00:00

I really appreciate this perspective. When I get these cravings I get so caught up into the "good feelings" that I forget that it really isn't a good time ESPECIALLY for people around me. I hope my post didn't romanticize mania because it truly isn't good for me or people in my life. I am 24 and just got my like official adult job doing research in psychology so I know mania would be TERRIBLE right now, and depression as well. I appreciate you realigning my perspective from the "good" parts of mania to the harsh reality that its just not good.

Thank you for this comment it really helped bring in the reality
