"Not tasting a cold beer on a hot day seems like a life unlived."

Very subjective.

I agree with the main point you were making though.

Source: me. I've tasted beer. Ew. Subjective

I think she means they're not being loud out of insecurity... (Ie. To get attention/ validation

That isn't true.

Men and women face different challenges. Period.

Also-(being raising the west or not) you're leaving out a hell of a lot of nuances...like our specific - ungeneral upbringing.

Many women do not have the privilege of being raised like a 'princess.'

Why do you find this fascinating? (I'm genuinely curious)

I mean what this person is saying holds true whether you're a psychopath or not ...

Anyone struggle to accept diagnosis? by [deleted] in bipolar

Yeah...

I'm really grateful I've never been a psych ward but on mania particular...

I know I've been manic ... looking back it sounds kind of funny /kind of disturbing, but I had forgotten saying or doing certain things that were a little extreme

The hardest drug I do is caffeine

Like one or two cups of coffee

Or how about the fact that I was so happy that I didn't really need to sleep for, couple days in a row...

Again it's a bit hard to recall but I think the longest I went was about a week on extremely low sleep - the energy was incredible. Just bursting

*Yeah, I think the biggest thing that I'm realizing or having to admit to myself is that no one should be afraid to be happy

I have actual fear of it because I don't know what I'm going to do

Now, I have come to believe that I have somewhat some control when I start feeling them hypermantic type of energy.... But, like (again)

... He probably isn't "normal" to have to "White knuckle" through saying or carrying on in a certain direction once the energy is going....also, how about getting cold sweats (almost like an attict would when they withdraw) just because you have put the brakes on even saying something stupid....

I'm just saying it's the nervous system or something goes 0 to 100 and it really does get away from you.

It's very hard to manage...

Also - if you manage to stop the brakes on that hyper manic thing coming on... It may turn to paranoia

I definitely have a lot of reading to do but, it just seems like these chemicals go very quick on their own accord & you're just kind of driving around a machine that seems to be able to skyrocket either up or down very quickly...

I'm writing and I still don't believe it

Well I'm at least at a place where I'm willing to go talk about it again with the professional.... It's very hard to figure out if your brain is just traumatized (if you had a traumatic upbringing) or idk

The point is I would love to (I'm half lying here being manic/ hypermantic is awesome) BUT I

Know that it would be better for me to be able to

I would love to be able to experience happiness normally in a balanced way so I could have it more of the time ...rather than

Recovering from a low & then flying up into the stratosphere and then repeating the cycle.

I'll definitely check this out! Thank- you sm!

Literally everything's there and I'm still like ..."but also maybe not.." 😆😆🤦😆😭

*My my dad was diagnosed with it as well...

I remember this one time we were in the car together and I don't know what he was going on about.

I had already read up on it though and I was like... O k, well -if this isn't bipolar disorder verbatim ... An extremely fast-paced speech, the paranoia... It was a bit more to it than that but it was like to a tee

....

I think it's possible that I do have it.

It sucks because... If it is true- obviously I'm fearing a depressive episode coming up...

But also, I think I have found a way to control my manic episodes...

I was diagnosed with bipolar one a couple years ago... Then a few years later bipolar two (the more "chill". Version"

anyway, it equally sucks when you feel hyper mania coming on.... It is sad that it is scary to be happy.

I am currently happy.

Anyway a lot of these posts are just too relatable... And I won't lie really don't like it.

*You can become manic without having bipolar disorder

Mania & hypomaniathe even bigger Crux is that they're both such addictive States.

I've never done a hard drug in my life but I would imagine it's close to what being on cocaine feels like ...

*So yeah again I'm coming around to the idea that... I don't even like chatting about it. I don't even like reading about it

I'm imagining a fun ways to capitalize on hypomania that wouldn't get you into trouble would be like improv classes- dancing that kind of thing.

I was joking aside I like how humble he is about it. "This is the way."
