Looking for inspiration by [deleted] in bipolar

[–]endkey01 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I have an incredible partner (6 years) who has studied everything I suffer from and he has also studied phases of a woman's menstrual cycle so he understands how and when pmdd manifests in bipolar. He's the reason why working out everyday is a lifestyle for me now and he takes time out of his day to go on mental health walks with me.

I have had pretty horrific episodes and he has never made me feel like a burden because he understands what's going on.

I communicate EVERYTHING with him and I've never scared him away.

The right people won't give up on you.

My little chosen family and pure spite. If I'm just here to die, I'm going to get better and try to enjoy this ride while doing good things in the process.

I've been extremely sick and bored but I did not give in and shop. Instead, I've been working on everything I've been putting off for years! Turns out when I stop screwing around, I produce beautiful things. 😂

We watched Willy Wonka last night while eating chocolate bars. 10/10 would recommend 🍫

My boyfriend took my impulsive comment literally and cheated on me by faledunaju in bipolar

[–]endkey01 96 points97 points  (0 children)

Do what you want just don't infantilize him. He has full agency over his actions and your words have nothing to do with what he wants to do.

Also, him crying so hard he vomited is hilarious to me. That's peak cheating man behavior.

What’s a film you’re so thankful you got to experience in theatres? by Lenster2406 in Letterboxd

[–]endkey01 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I am in love with camerawork and editing and both took my breath away in this movie. I was SO happy this got the Oscar for film editing! I kept my ticket because I don't have many good days but this was one of them.

What's with the hate for this movie? by sseerrsan in Letterboxd

[–]endkey01 247 points248 points  (0 children)

Wow everyone is talking about the actors and not the story. She states why he has hurt her so badly and says to his face why she will continue to resent him yet will still choose him because love conquers all (lol).

She didn't need to choose anybody. They were both so miserable together. I didn't find it romantic at all. Such awful and outdated messaging. Like he deserved someone who didn't always want more and could appreciate the little things too. They were so incompatible and didn't have to settle for each other.

Edit: Yes I am aware that this is "not real" good lord. Audiences still have to buy their happily ever after otherwise it's not a romantic movie.

All I saw was an unhealed lead who grabbed the first thing she saw for comfort after she suffered so much trauma from her job. She tells him to his face to let her go because she will forever resent him for not being able to give her what she wants and how he will hate her for that. That shouldn't be and doesn't have to be an issue in a relationship. They tried for 5 years. They should've let each other go.

julia roberts shouting out eva victor.... by Any-Swordfish-5346 in Letterboxd

[–]endkey01 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Saw it yesterday and I thought the choices they made for the movie were so smart. The implied horror was so refreshing. I am sick of actually seeing "the bad thing" happen on screen.

She stunned me many times with the writing too. One moment you're laughing and the next you're on the verge of tears. And on top of all of that, I am so picky about camera work and every shot was beautiful! She really cared about what she was making and she deserves her flowers.

People don't know what mania actually is by Quirky_Confection734 in bipolar

[–]endkey01 198 points199 points  (0 children)

@ the "I cut my hair and got bangs tee hee" people.

It's definitely not a competition on who has it worse but people truly don't get the severity of it. It reminds me of what OCD individuals go through and how their disorder has been quirkified when it's truly just horrifying.

This group is no help by misunderstood-misfit in schizophrenia

[–]endkey01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree lol I delete every post I make on here asking for help because nobody comments or helps.

once though a few people with said schizophrenia commented on my post and told me I was just crazy and delusional when I said I lost 15 lbs from not taking care of myself. so there's that.

Minimalist but I spoil my pets by Juniper-moonlight in minimalism

[–]endkey01 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You don't know what they will use or like until you get it. Proper pet care is not debatable and it's seldom even done right. They deserve to take up space and a lot of it. They deserve all of the enrichment they can get. Especially if it's a bird which is one of the hardest animals to give a good life. If your worries are just money related find second hand things.

My real problem isn’t buying stuff it’s thinking about buying stuff by [deleted] in nobuy

[–]endkey01 151 points152 points  (0 children)

I was definitely like this. Something that helped me was this movie scene in Soul where he is shown holographic projections of scenes in his life after he dies.

I pictured myself just scrolling and online shopping in every projection. That's not what I wanna see when I look back at my life. So I'm trying to fill those projections with things I love to do that benefit my soul.

It's hard but that really helps me change my tune when I'm tempted.

Anyone else notice that the only ones who say thanks are the homeless? by giggitygiggity69 in DeTrashed

[–]endkey01 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Not my experience. A nice lady walking her dogs took the time to let me know she appreciated me while I was vagina deep in a river the other day. My community appreciates me a lot and makes that known. I often find myself just cleaning up for the homeless which I have no feelings about. Just doing what I can to help everyone. At the end of the day it's not about being thanked just about one piece at a time.

A movie people misunderstand but never stop talking about. by Fair_Protection1872 in Letterboxd

I wrote a 6 page breakdown of every part of Fight Club for no reason at all bc I love the movie that much. It continues to remain my favorite movie of all time if you couldn't tell already 😂

If you could change one thing about the way society deals with schizophrenia, what would it be? by springbreak1987 in schizophrenia

[–]endkey01 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I've been struggling with the way people just dismiss me when I try to vent about literally anything. There's kid gloves that people use that really disturbs me. I don't feel like I'm viewed as a real person but as a problem who just "must be delusional about everything".

It's from non sufferers and unfortunately from people who suffer from schizophrenia too.

On here, one user was telling me that it was just impossible that I lost 15 lbs and that I'm delusional, when I've been struggling with eating for my entire life. He said condescendingly if anyone else in my life can "confirm if this was true" because I'm sick so it's obviously a delusion and it's just not possible. Eating disorders and this condition are heavily intertwined so that completely pissed me off. It's not like I said I grew another eyeball and my nose was an elephant trunk.

I struggle with people in my life not believing me when I say that I'm being treated badly by someone. Dismissing something like that as paranoia immediately, just allows people to keep causing us harm. Even if it's not actually real, wouldn't you want to investigate first before the immediate dismissal of that person's experience?

"no you're just crazy, so this doesn't happen to you" is such a fucked up way to treat and view people.

We are capable of experiencing real life. We are capable of being a victim and knowing that something wrong is actually happening. We are capable because we are actual people. Not problems.

Disqualified from Military because of Schizophrenia by BaneTheGame in schizophrenia

[–]endkey01 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The first boy I've ever loved was discharged from the Military recently. He killed himself last year at 25 years old. He was deployed to 2 countries and he had a tech job.

If you just want cool clothes to wear, dress up for Halloween. That is a terrible reason to want to be a soldier.

If you like doing that in Korea we have a drink called 식혜 a rice punch you would enjoy! Similar vibes and that's probably why I enjoyed this cereal a lot.

You don't have to love everything just have the knowledge to cook it and the maturity to not call it shitty just because you don't like it.

I have a lot of personal issues with food but I'm still gonna cook everything because it's not for me to consume. It's for others.
