I was in high school when I was diagnosed with bipolar (after being diagnosed with psychosis NOS). I tell one of my friends "hey, I have bipolar" and she just looks at me and says "No ****!"
Have any other funny (even if loosely related) bp stories? |

before my mental health struggles even started, I went for a rafting trip on the river.
it was all going well, until I decided, this is boring.. I'm going to move about on my raft and try and spice things up. well, I ended up falling off the raft, in to the river (I had all my clothes on, shoes too) I had to swim back to the shore, clothes soaked in really cold water, and when I did finally get to dry land, we were told we were about to have a picnic, and I had to eat mine naked. kind of embarrassing at the time, and how I remember it, when it was home time, my clothes still wern't quite dry. |

i've shared this one before in another thread, but i'll post it here:
during 1 of my stays on the psych ward, we had fish and chips for dinner 1 night. tired of the hospital food, a group of us decided we were going to give the staff a bit of a wake up call, and we threw the food everywhere. across the ward, on the walls, on the floor, on the furniture, everywhere. the staff didn't have fun cleaning up, and they were even more surprised when later I was hungry and asked for some food. they are like, well, you had your chance, but didn't eat it. well... I guess they were right. lol |

during the same stay, I left with someone else's phone.
got halfway home and got a call on the phone from someone I didn't recognize talking about a dead cat. well, obviously the reason I didn't recognize them was because I don't even have a cat to begin with, and had to go back to return the phone and get mine back. |

when I was younger, my mother liked the singer bob marley.
well: not me. I didn't like reggae at all, and found all her cassette tapes with bob marley on and recorded over them with goo goo ga ga noises, and sounds of me being sick as well... she wasn't impressed!. I was though. it was great |

1 last one for now... when I was like 6 years old, I decided it would be fun to try and make a cup of tea.
note to self: paint is not good in a mug I went to put the mug on the table, bashed my arm on the door and the paint went everywhere, all over the floor. I was standing in a little art display of my very own lol. I hope this thread sticks around for a bit.. got loads more to post |

when my sister was really young, we watched wrestling on TV.
1 of the wrestlers went down and got covered in blood. my sister turned to me and asked, why is that wrestler's face covered in ketchup? I was amused. it was cute |

bored 1 day, I decided to test the theory of, "window post"
you throw something out the window and shout an address, then it goes their and a few days later you get something back through the window in return (I'd been thinking about the possibility for a few days, but I never actually tried it) so I through a toy out of the window (1 of those plastic toy men you get) for days I just sat by the window, waiting for my reward then 1 afternoon something came sailing through the window and landed in my hand the exact same plastic toy man I through out only a few days ago. from then on, I believed in window post, and still do today |

1 evening, with nothing else to do, I decided to prank call a catelogue company.
I called them, and requested a copy of the catelogue to be sent to all the homes in my street (even the empty ones) I got a real laugh out of it ( I loved prank calls when I was a kid, me and a friend did them all the time) |

Haha, Fharraige! You did him a favor for sure!

I'm not sure if this story is allowable or not
I went to school once, wearing a white t-shirt with the black bra underneath. I did not understand why I was being stared at until I went to the washroom And of course I was at the age where this was just the total height of embarrassment __________________ What's so funny about peace, love and understanding?

I have a much younger brother. When he was about 3 or 4 we stopped at a rest area to use the bathroom. While I was on the toilet and trying to hang on to him and my purse he piped up in a loud, clear voice with no pause between sentences: "I like your shirt. Do you have a penis?". The woman next to us actually went "phfffffffft" trying to not laugh.

I was ranting in front of my husband and daughter and talking about my job.
I said, "It's because of that ****ing place!" A couple of seconds later, daughter, "Yeah! That ****ing place!" It was really funny. __________________ The darkest of nights is followed by the brightest of days. |

I was in my first executive position interview. And it was a lunch interview.
Never order salad, and here's why I was trying to be all cool, answering questions, and as I bit down on a cherry tomato, it burst open and squirted my interviewer's white shirt But I got hired __________________ What's so funny about peace, love and understanding? Elvis Costello |

I was playing pass the parcel with a few friends.
on the next go, someone opened a layer of the parcel to reveal 1 of those animals that are full of flour. well, before continuing the game, this person popped the animal (I think it was a snake), and flour went absolutely everywhere. on him, the floor, the walls.. it was hilarious |
