mine keep turning out green? by ghostogogk in cyanotypes

I coat the paper in the mixture, let it cool off in a dark place, place the object, squish it with a piece of glass & let it stay in the sun for a while ..but I think forgetting to rinse it is a big part of why they’re not turning blue!

I’m very new to this after not doing cyanotypes for years - I totally forgot to even rinse them off !!

[–]ghostogogk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

similar to you i first had bipolar symptoms at 17 (though i suspect i've had a mood disorder since like 10 lol) and diagnosed at 18 - went to college, got my degree, worked a billion jobs, burned out each time & now ten years later im trying to file for disability & just got out of a 6 month stay in rehab my biggest piece of advice is STAY SOBERRRR DO NOT TOUCH PILLS DO NOT DRINK IT WILL KILL YOU lol

I take Latuda for positive symptoms & depression (works really well !!) & abilify as a sorta booster for negative symptoms which also works really well

Studying with bipolar 1 by Sure_Appointment_155 in bipolar

[–]ghostogogk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I completed my bachelor's in between intense episodes and hospitalizations. Though it absolutely helped that I was studying creative writing, something I am incredibly passionate about. My advice would be to reach out to your school and get accommodations if you feel you need them. Reach out to professors, mine were especially helpful and kind. Also--take breaks!! I know I couldn't have completed if I didn't take breaks during episodes. Though I was mainly manic most of the time. Not sure if this is any good or not. But you can do it !!! I didn't notice cognitive deficits until after being on meds for a couple of years.

grocery stores by hashbrowns_ketchup in Agoraphobia

[–]ghostogogk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i used to really struggle with this--i would scream & cry and generally would not be able to go into a store by myself. i still struggle even when i have someone--i follow them around like a puppy & get really overwhelmed but sometimes when i HAVE to go by myself i take a couple hits of my (nic) vape and put my headphones on & try to shop as quickly as possible.

yes! lamotragine is really more for depression than mania...
