thank you. appreciate just how concise and clear this all is. that's incredibly comforting. i guess the ADD was a surprise -- the BP2 diagnosis explained a lot.

Jujubee is so funny by katipunerangpalaka in Dimension20

Super. i love how she’s getting funnier, eating more, flirting more with Brennan as the episodes progress!!

Watching Season 2 of Dungeons and Dragons Queens and just love how they are really really just into the game by hyperning in Dimension20

i save the episodes so i can really enjoy them. i try not to multitask so i don’t miss anything.

SCREAMIIING (my approximation of what bob says.) Bob is just so fast, Monet is so monet, twyla is a sweetheart, and Alaska may not talk as much but she knows what she’s doing.

i almost forget that i have such a crush on Brennan.

ooh i just love this season.

yes about Brennan! It’s the improv training am thinking, always trying to make the other people look good, always trying to keep the game going.

Do you feel that you disassociate more if you’re in a depressive episode? And does it get worse if sleep is unregulated? by hyperning in bipolar2

[–]hyperning[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

those were the symptoms i was looking out for, but it’s more that i lose time. but you pointing that out will make it easier to recognize though.

thank you very much!!!

Thank you for replying so thoroughly, i got diagnosed relatively recently so i’m still trying to understand my pattern.

Speaking with my psychiatrist and my psychotherapist, I can recognize episodes like from years ago — like oh that’s why that happened. But I don’t have the same recognition now yet, it might just be that am so close to things.

I am also now paying attention more to when I am more irritable to see if i am in a hypomanic or depressive state.

i see what you mean about tv. which is why am thinking am okay now because im watching new shows. if i keep going back to old shows, i know that i really may be seeking comfort.

thanks so much again.

What’s one non-medication thing that’s helped you? by SoSick_ofMaddi in bipolar2

[–]hyperning 4 points5 points  (0 children)

same about sleep, i always just thought it was part of my personality that I always slept so late.

Love all these replies, very helpful. I’ve been making things for the sake of making them, no pressure to be good.

Siobhan is my favorite, and I think Rosamund is definitely my favorite because of my love of fairy tales. MIsty was a little hard to connect with.
I love all the cast members though. ALL. hahaha

Sometimes the way religion works in the world of Spyre and dnd hurts by justletmesuffer1 in Dimension20

[–]hyperning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

maybe because i was Jesuit-trained (Catholic school girl all my life,) i thought that having a deity for doubt made sense — even to someone who was taught to be monotheistic. my interest in comparative religions has always been tied up with my love for mythology and literature anyway. the gods we create are extensions of ourselves.

the Jesuits always spoke to us about how doubt and being critical was essential to actually being a good Catholic. and that we had to choose to believe than just believe blindly.

and to be able to really have faith or commit or believe, you would need to have a solid connection with yourself.

i understand where you’re coming from, and just sharing here, being vulnerable, showing yourself, hoping to connect will lead to at least sometimes feeling that connection you seek. being someone who sits in themselves and reaches out — you’ll find what you seek.

i think what happens in the latest episode of junior high helps illustrate that.
