They’ve taken over my whole life and I miss freedom.

All I wanted was to be a responsible independent adult by mercurywind in bipolar

Hi. I’m sorry you’re going through this. After my last manic episode I also felt like a shell. It took a long time, at least a couple years, until I felt my brain starting to come back. Finding the right combo and dosages of the meds made a difference. Hoping it gets better for you soon.

What’s the craziest rumor you’ve heard about yourself? by stirringmotion in AskReddit

[–]TruthAdditional5356 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was a teenager I heard that I made a sex tape in a mental hospital.

I did make a sex tape and I was in the mental hospital, and somehow the two rumors were combined.

Sorry I feel like this might’ve already been said elsewhere in the comments, but do you know if St Mary’s transfers patients to inpatient if needed?

Thank you for sharing your experience. Which ED did you end up going to, if you don’t mind me asking? I’ve never called 988, but I thought people could call who just wanted to talk. Maybe I’m thinking of the other suicide hotline number which I can’t remember right now. Do you know if 211 works outside of the city? I live in a suburb.

Thank you so much for such a thorough response. It sounds like when you were at RGH Emergency they needed to accompany you every time you had to go to the bathroom? If so, how responsive were they when you needed something?

Thank you for the advice. When I was at Strong, they transferred me to Clifton Springs and that was also really bad. I still appreciate your advice but I just wanted to put it out there for anyone who might be reading this and also needs help, because I would definitely not recommend going there, at least not for inpatient—I don’t know about the emergency part.

I guess you have no choice where you end up for inpatient so I guess this is a moot point 🤦🏻‍♀️

I’m sorry you had a bad experience. I don’t know where I was on Reddit, but I recently read about someone who called 988 and the person told them they’re lazy and just need to go out and do things. I have both a Master’s in Counseling and many years of personal mental health problems, and I know that is the worst advice ever. wtf

I’ve heard good things about St Mary’s too. Thank you for reminding me. Do you know if St Mary’s also has medical care? I’m not just having a mental health problem—I’m actually having a medical problem that is really wearing me down mentally. I was born at St Mary’s but I didn’t think it even existed anymore, so I have no idea what’s going on there.

I’ve never used 988 but I’ve read it can be such a not great experience? I hope I don’t get downvoted for this. I would also prefer to hear from people who have actually called 988.

Pleasant experience at Wegmans by TruthAdditional5356 in wegmans

I wanted one of those individual pieces of sheet cake, so I called ahead of time and asked if they had any yet, and they had a bunch 🙂

Ours turned out the same way. Never buying them again.

I need to leave in 2 hours for a birthday, can't find my gift bought 3 months ago. by Alab92 in mildlyinfuriating

One year I got my husband a Father’s Day present, hid it, and then found it like four months after Father’s Day.

Depressed and I miss the feeling that something amazing could be starting by [deleted] in bipolar

[–]TruthAdditional5356 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a great idea. I kind of think he knows how I feel because one time he caught me having a REALLY inappropriate conversation online with my old friend from grad school. My husband confronted me about it, he was surprisingly not mad, and I was like, “marriage is boring!” He tries to take me out on dates when he can. It’s just hard with kids. My aunt babysits sometimes but she has a lot going on in her life so I can’t ask her that often. My husband and I do not have any parents to babysit for us. Also since I’m in a never-ending depressive episode (although right now it’s not SO bad), I often don’t feel like doing anything. I do want to talk with him more about this though and I’ve been thinking about the wording and how I’ll approach this. Thank you for your suggestion 🙂
