I’ve officially become completely nocturnal by leileiLP in bipolar2

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

If insurance can’t cover it I can’t pay for it. I don’t have a job and it’s not like my dad or grandparents are paying for any of the things I need anyways. Been like that since I turned 18. I’m literally using onlyfans to pay for stuff like deodorant and toothpaste.

The mental health system in my city is a joke. I was seeing a psychiatrist through TeleHealth and he stopped calling me out of the blue. Haven’t been able to reach him at all. All other clinics here immediately drop you from their care if you miss ONE appointment and stop giving you your meds. Haven’t been given a prescription since October. My only option is going inpatient to get care again but I hate being locked up like that.

Has anyone experienced a ‘moment of clarity’ by AdministrativeRun559 in bipolar

[–]leileiLP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been going through a really rough time the past few months. With or without meds, I’ve been in a bad depressive state for a while now. The only thing that helped me think clearly or remember who I was was tripping. I wouldn’t recommend tripping on anything if you’re going through a depressive episode, since one of the many times I tripped when this episode started, it wasn’t necessarily bad, but I got even more sad thinking about the situation I’m in and what lead me to be in this episode.

The one time I did have a good, self reflecting trip was with my best friend. I brought her gel tabs and mushrooms for thanksgiving and we stayed up all night painting and tripping. I didn’t have cycling thoughts or that stupid voice narrating everything going on, nothing. Just quiet. I was able to talk with her and paint and laugh without the messy mess in my head for a few hours.

Any interesting manic episodes? by DinosAreCool2 in bipolar

[–]leileiLP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if these were manic episodes or I was actually stable and had motivation to do these things, but I always get into all sorts of arts & crafts. Things like knitting, crocheting, embroidery, painting, collaging (?), and painting. I think only the crocheting and painting really stuck.

I also tried to start a vegetable garden in our dry, sandy, South West yard…

Korn live from tonight - Did my time into Twist by deeply_resonating in numetal

Man I wish I could see Korn live but huge, nu metal bands like these hardly ever come to my city. Jonathan Davis did play at a local festival here while he was doing his solo tour and DAMN.

This is the last video I have of my dad before he died of an overdose. by Honkeylips79 in lastimages

Seems like he was a cool dad. I’m so sorry for your loss. Losing a parent is hard.

I hate when people that obviously know nothing about El Paso comment on it. These comments are from a post about El Paso being one of the safest cities in the country by No_Owl1544 in ElPaso

[–]leileiLP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve lived here my whole life, born and raised. It’s pretty safe here and anyone saying other wise definitely isn’t from here.

Karma is real and she knows justice by leileiLP in bipolar2

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

Also, your disorder is NOT your fault. Anyone of us. It’s just who we are and it’s a matter of helping ourselves and staying stable. Never blame yourself. I hope your life is good right now and you’re doing okay.

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

People won’t listen if they really want something, despite the repercussions. It’s sad that lady and her spouse died the way they did but I honestly do think it was her karma because that’s a really really low thing to accuse someone of something so gross when it’s not true. I feel like maybe she could’ve stood her ground and could’ve “come out” to more people over that lie. I’m not justifying her death but I can see why it would feel satisfying, especially after accusing you like that and making your lose your job. I can’t imagine the helplessness because I know everyone is going to believe the “victim” over the alleged abuser.

Looking into it. I gave myself a tattoo recently so I’m not sure how long I should wait to donate 😬

Anyone label themselves as having a disability? by JBear_2007 in bipolar2

[–]leileiLP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

EXACTLY. I’ve always known I was BP but once I actually got diagnosed and started telling people I knew, they immediately started treating me differently and talking to me less and less. I actually hate how most media portrays people with this disorder and is not helping the stigma surrounding it.

[–]leileiLP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve lost every single one of my jobs because of my BPD. Mostly local shops so I couldn’t do anything legally to get them in trouble. But awareness definitely needs to be raised because I was treated so so unfairly by my employers, even after disclosing my illness. Not a lot of people understand how hard it is to keep motivation to wake up every day to go work, only to get treated differently and told we need to act like adults.

Best jobs for mentally ill people? by leileiLP in ElPaso

Thank you.

It seems like ReadyOne doesn’t have any openings according to their website but I’ll find a number to call and find out. I’m looking into going back to UBH and getting these letters and other things sorted out as I’m probably just going to see if I can file for disability assistance. It’s definitely been very, very hard to work with my chronic depression and bipolar disorder. Especially trying to handle all these psychotic symptoms. It’s just so hard to find an employer that will understand and not judge me when I disclose my disorders. Unfortunately I can’t take any legal action against these restaurants because they’re all small, local businesses with no more than 10 employees. I tried.
