So I was replying to the "coping techniques" post and realized I had to throw in some snark and jokes and irony.
The thing is, I do this all the time. I constantly feel I need to dismiss seriousness of whatever situation, snark at myself. Even when I do things of life and death importance, I tend to do this. Which puts of some people and I get why. But should we just all sit and cry about it, or is it better to make jokes about eating babies and get **** done? I am the only one who needs to joke about everything constantly?

Comic relief is a coping mechanism I use when things get to be too much. Sometimes I need to laugh to keep from crying. Life is madness and the mad deserve to have fun. What other options do we have?

Nope, I'm right there with you.
 I like to joke around a lot tooSlightly offtopic-ish... I think this place gets boring when there isn't anything fun to read. I don't like reading serious posts all the time. I mean, I like to help people, but there needs to be a mix IMO. Maybe I'm a selfish @ss, but I like fun, jokey, and offtopic-ish posts. I like to get to know people's personailities. And this is just my opinion, but it's kind of hard to get to know people when they're serious 100% of the time |

I do tend to joke around alot, but then when people joke around with me I tend to take it personally and can get pissed off real easily.

Tell me about it. I just came from church choir rehearsal. Three HOURS of serious, "Go to page six, measure 43..." and "Altos you're flat..." I mean, REALLY! I was about ready to FALL OUT. Oh- and there's an extra rehearsal Sunday, and the performance is Sunday night and and and.... I need something FUNNY! Music is supposed to be FUN, isn't it? You can't even go up to the director and say something funny because she looks at you like you have three heads. Me and my crazy bipolar self, you know. Maybe we should have a thread here on the bipolar board for our favorite comedians or funny movies.

Lol, sometimes it feels like EVERYTHING is a joke to me. I joke all the time. I think it can be a coping mechanism, ie I make jokes rather than crying or being upset, but I also just am a naturally joking person!

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
