I Don’t Know What To Title This Other Than Receptionists at Shrinks’ Offices Should Have a Sense of Humor

I discovered yesterday that I had overlapping appointments with my counselor and my shrink for today. Called and got the shrink rescheduled for a later time. Told the receptionist she was a "life saver." Me: "Wait! I don't mean like LITERALLY a life saver! Don't tell him I said that! I just mean you really helped me out!" Her--sounding rather ...

2012 has come to a close and now we're on to 2013. I can vividly remember it being 1990. I feel quite old all of a sudden. We've been in the house a year now. Cara started school. Tucker's almost done with his. I got offered a job. I found my biological mother and siblings. ...

I’m Depressed Maybe Possibly Or Not

OK. Fine. I'm depressed. [I got distracted after I wrote that and wandered around the internet before remembering I was supposed to be writing something over here. Oops.] Remember when I wrote that one thing about going off my meds? Well, I did and things were pretty much the way they had been and so whatever, right? ...

World Suicide Prevention Day: Choose To Live

You're not the only one who is feeling like this and even though you don't believe me, there are people who really do care if you die. There are people you will hurt. People you will decimate. People who want to support you. People who want to see you better. The hardest thing you can do ...

Quit My Meds?

Just that title makes me sound like one of those crazy people who say they're "cured" but they're really not and then they go off and sleep with fifty people or something until they come down from the mania and then they don't take a shower for a month. So apparently there are a million-billion crazy ...

Why I Will Never Go To Another Public Mental Health Clinic

Insane-Doll

I wasn't even making $12k when I was in college. I was broke with a capital I-ain't-got-no-money. So I did the public mental health clinic thing once a week. Some of the clientele didn't even try to act normal...maybe they couldn't. There was this HUGE--woman must have been 6'4"--black lady sitting in front of me and ...

Um…Not Sure What To Title This and Jason Mraz Song and a Gif

Filed Under: Gifs, Life, Mental Health
huh

This is the weird limbo time where I'm about to start my period--How about I just toss that out there, right? You're welcome.--and stuff isn't working so well in my head. Hormones are amazing things and for me, they seem to bring on mild bouts of paranoia and a bit of anger. Looks like this month ...

I meant to write this day before yesterday but got distracted several times. I accomplished my entire list on Monday. Take a shower. Brush teeth. Put on makeup. Perfectly french braid Cara’s hair for gym. Figure out where I put Ollie’s form for gym so he can start this summer. Make dinner. Get to sleep before midnight. [It was a few minutes after midnight.] The lump ...

Dysphoria and the Gif At the End of This Will Probably Offend You

fog on the mountain

I have no idea what I want to write about today and am pretty much only writing because I think I should. I find it ironic that when I get all dysphoric the last thing I want to do is write and it's probably the time when I need to write the most. If it didn't ...
