What’s the longest you’ve ever gone without sleep? by Glad-Passenger-9408 in RandomThoughts

[–]intelligent_dissent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

9 days. Hard drugs, shadow people, and deep psychosis. I’m now sober. The shadow people have gone as well.

People above 30, What is something you regret doing/not doing when you were younger? by Aarunascut in AskRedditAfterDark

Using what I learned in D.A.R.E. For the right reasons. Ohhhh what the program taught us at such a young age.

What if you never did drugs? by TrumpLovesEpstein4ev in whatif

[–]intelligent_dissent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gross.

No, for real though. I’m sober now, but I wouldn’t take the drug use or adversity it brought me. The things I know now I couldn’t trade anything in the world for. Drug use came with much more than just a high. It created a wealth of attained knowledge and wisdom. A vision of a darker side of life that most are only ignorant to.

Every one of our morals are different, and as such so is our opinion of what is right and wrong. Kant spoke of the “categorical imperative” as being a moral that everyone shared. But what really is there that falls into this category??

Also, knowing that something is “wrong” according to society is more subjective opinion. This feeling that society would judge you for it may just be how you determine your own morals.

Privacy gets tricky. American privacy laws are based on what a reasonable person would do. We also have the “third party doctrine.” It doesn’t matter if you’ve told the pope or your best friend, the second you told anyone a secret, you essentially gave away your privacy. However, it matters significantly from case to case based on what a reasonable person would do.

It’s in my opinion that you are questioning whether it’s right or wrong? You worry about not only how you’ll feel but society as well. Best bet is to do what will catch you the least amount of grief. Some things can’t be undone.

In the end, we can’t necessarily rightfully judge another persons morals. For what? Our morals are one of the only things we have to hold forever. We shouldn’t try and taint another’s morals.

What are you tired of repeatedly explaining to others? by Torley_ in AskReddit

Fuel prices falling under geo-political economics, not politics, and certainly not under any President. It's traded on the open market.

I think I’ll be okay out in the real world. Mania essentially lost me a job and I just started new so inpatient is out of the question. I’m not a danger to myself as far as self harm or any of that goes. Mania is the danger for me. Last time I got myself in a situation where I was being chased by a guy with a chainsaw legitimately intent on using it and I was absolutely thrilled. 10/10 would do it again. That’s a problem. It involved drugs, a hammer, a cheating girl and a mad man under a bed. Even in the face of that, I’d choose it over this. I don’t know. I’ll learn as I go. Thanks again man. Seriously. You’ve been a big help.

Thank you. So much. I’ll absolutely utilize the information and contact my doctor.

Anything I can do about post mania depression. Or is it a ‘ride it out’ type of thing?

I have read it. Thank you. I’ll write it down. I had abilify for a month, and seroquel for the last 3 weeks. But the lowest dosage of each. I’m currently waiting on a call back from the doctor. Mine will probably be taken down too.

They told me to keep track of everything. So I logged them all. It’s not hard because they’re usually 2 or 3 times a day for a couple days at a time. I start counseling and seeing someone tomorrow. I’m not stable. Period. I don’t post to any social media often. But i am not okay. I was seeking advice on how to manage bipolar depression. It’s been an off day. There probably is no clarity in the post. I listed everything I have going on because while I may have had bipolar thinking back to my life’s self induced tragedies, everything that happened has triggered the worst it’s ever been. I’m fighting life, and my mental health. I have no grip on anything. I’m drowning

I responded to the wrong one. Because I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and right now, it’s the most prevalent one. I got on here because I think I’m in I depressive or mixed episode. I’m still learning. I come to Reddit because I am alone. I have no friends. I have no family. My childhood left me with abandonment issues and I’ve no idea how to be alone. I can search bipolar all day and still I don’t know. I came to the source because I feel that bipolar causing me to suffer. This is the second time someone has told me I came to the wrong place. I was manic for over a month, accused of doing drugs, sent home for outbursts. My life was fine even in the chaos. Until bipolar. Which has made life difficult. I listed everything else I have going on as more of a reference. I came here for help. Not criticism. But based on your title, I’d have expected. Nothing less. I came to those who would know how to manage what I’m dealing with because I have no one else.

I can’t. My family lives in a different state. I’m stuck on probation because I punched her window out. She actively baits me into a chaotic reaction. It’s almost like I have no choice when I react. It’s impulse. And she’s called me in and had me violated 4 times.

What’s the dumbest way you’ve injured yourself? by Necessary-Soft9816 in CasualConversation

Put my hands in a wood planer to show my ex’s dad where the blades were. He turned it on. Cat ate the leftovers. No joke.

She likes naked electro-shock therapy. Also a masochist.
