Today I have 2 plasters on my butt instead of just 1(BC).

How is my arse relevent to this forum you ask?

Well because the other butt cheek got double dose Vitamin B12!

I cant remember why the gp instructed me to get it, as opposed to tablets, nor do I recall how its supposed to help my bipolarness, but, I DO recall reading here that B12 is beneficial

Also exercised this evening for an hour for the first time since 2010 because I lost 2 stress kg and muscle is more attainable than fat, because lipids ARE ALLERGIC TO ME! Geez what kind of 30y.o weighs 41kg????

Enough of my butt now.

Work....

No more answering to demonic debbie who makes me cry by permie being on my case bout everything and unabashedly trying to swindle me out of getting paid for off days!

Remember Tash? My trainer (and now friend) who was so cool and supportive from day 1 even though I chucked a stapler at Ethan for being a douche and subsequently had a meltdown from anger/embarrassment in her training room that first week we met?

Well she pulled a rabbit out her arse, and is now my direct superior, because she's also sick of Debbie's vendetta against me. Really, Debbie leaves everyone else alone......

buuuuut its probably because she thinks I get 'special' treatment as I'm not on the phone fulltime after confessing to the HOD how triggering it is....

Anyway bloody woman can just ASK ME!!! Its not a state secret! Trevor (HOD) and Tash haven't told her because they promised to zip it, and I dont tell her because she's ready to ASSUME the worst, so she can just fkn stew!!!!

Anyway my new boss is über-cool, I only do 1hr phone time (because I'm still an intern) and the rest of the day I'm the Training Assistant.

Also, looks like they really had a TA position in mind when they hired me (which Trevor mentioned when I jumped out the BP closet and wanted to quit).

Why? Becoz Tash is coaching the other interns on getting a perm post as agents but not hearing ANY of my 'job search need to go to interviews' talk...

And she wouldn't be spiteful, she knows the internship is done in June annnnd she is part of the company's recruitment team....

Ok I'm rambling and my coffee is getting cold and I wanna smoke!!!

Love u guys muchnesssss

I have heard of B12 injections, too. Supposed to relieve some type of anemia real fast, no? And anemia can cause depression, physically? Is that the connection?

I am sure it will do a lot of good. I think the injections have been around for a really long time and are therefore well tested.

YAY Trippin !!!!!!!

Glad work is improving and the evil b1itch is off your *** !

The B12 shot is fantastic .. Some people are unable to pull B12 into there system from food. An expensive blood test can prove it ,, but most doctor just give you the shot and see how you feel.

They just made me feel better over all

Hmmm... this is all good news. And now maybe I think I need to take some vitamins. if I can remember to take them. I already know I have trouble with vitamin D (espcieally since my office has 0 windows and natural light.)

Thanks for the update!

@DH shots are way easier to remember than daily meds... All you need to do is keep a monthly appointment, as if you were going to a T or pdoc...

@Hammy For reeeealziez? Wow who woulda thought???

Do you perhaps have an absorbtion problem?
Thanks for this!

It was a general advice from my then p-doc. Not based on the tests - general for people at large. He asked me to run it by GP because general health was in her province. She agreed. I have been taking D3 since then, for a year and a half, and doing well.

I probably can't afford to do that right now. A doctor visit alone is $75 then extra for anything they do like a shot or labs, and the extra just depends on what is being done.

Vitamin B12 gives good nerve support. The whole vitmain series B is excellent for
nerves and for bipolar illness.

I dont go to a Dr. No funds.
I go to a pharmacy where there is a Nurse on duty for family planning, immunization, flu shots and glucose tests an stuff. I only pay what the shots cost.

Dont you have pharmacies that offer these services?

Great news! Thanks Gen
I was thinking of you just now you know. I have incorporated lemon juice into my non-existant beauty regime. Apparantly good for skin tone, been adding it to my bath water and I thought how you would approve if I drank some LOL

There are pharmacies that offer shots but I think it's only immunizations. I'll look into it.

interesting stuff... and my T has mentioned B-12 (and D) several times... gonna have some blood work but hey, maybe just get the B-12 shot since it can't hurt anything and likely will help, sounds as if that's a no brainer?

Hate when my coffee gets cold. Yep I read your entire post, Trip. You sound "up" I sure wish I was too

Blackpup Thank you, I know you have first hand experience with unbearable bosses

ajmich I agree its a no-brainer, cant hurt.
You may be right you know about me being 'up', or it may just be because I'm inlove, it has the exact same effect on me, so I cant always tell the difference! lol

Its weird love and hypomania have the same emotional / mental impact on me, feels the exact same besides the absence of the 'object of my affection' during hypomania aaaaand of course the fact that hypomania turns nasty after 4 days and love doesn't!

I woke up this morning at 6 (went to sleep at 4am) shouted good morning to one and all so that the house will come alive and promptly started cleaning everyone's bedding, and I am the least domesticated person I know guys! (and to put it in perspective, I know ALOT of people) also I NEVER offer to do others chores WTH!

Its noon now and I'm busy doing my hair while I wait for the next load to dry and then I will do my nails and exercise before I start relaxing It just feels like everything must be done now, and properly, which of course means that I HAVE TO do it all myself! Wish I could share some of it with you

Let the good times roll!

In love = hypomania, you may be right on that. Though the last time I thought I was in love, much of it felt damned good but part of it felt lousy. In my MILD hypomanic state, very very seldom (many years apart, lasting a few months), I just felt damned good all the time, OK a wee bit of irritability no big deal, in fact the first time it happened I thought my depression was cured, what a relief... foolin' myself was all, of course. And was foolin' myself with Love as it turned out (FAR too young for me, good grief what was I thinking).

Lmao! A Masters degree in fooling ourselves is apparanrly a given

And your thinking was flawed due to extenuating circumstances Therefore "what was I thinking," is pointles train of thought...

Atleast your thinking returned to normal
