I’m currently coming out of a depression episode that’s lasted at least 2 years. I’m not clear out of the woods just yet but I’m getting there!

How did you come up with your username on msf / any meaning behind it?

I wanted to change my username and created a thread to ask an opinion on the name I chose and someone created an account used that name and never posted again. So I chose my second favorite, Nammu who is a creation goddess. I love creation stories from ancient civilizations.

Does your username have a special significance for you?

It makes me think of when my daughter was little and we used to watch Strawberry Shortcake together in the morning. Raspberry Torte was the dorkiest one out of the group of girls. The show is like technicolor happy land!

Same question.

(Because once again I can't think of one. Sorry.)

As in forums? Yeah. I was briefly on psychforums, and sometimes I'm in different mental health subreddits, but most of them have a different vibe than somewhere like this that I don't care for.

If you could create your own fantasy planet to live on, what would it be like?

It would be a planet where no one suffers from mental health issues and there’s no crime just eutopia (sp?)

Are you currently in control of your self care routines or have you let them slip?

I'm pretty in control of them. Only thing that's an issue is sleeping and eating, and the sleeping is because it hasn't gotten winter quiet yet.

What are some really popular plant species where you are?

On our lot we have a lot of tulip poplars, walnut trees, sassafras.


(This came up on reddit the other day and not on a psych related subreddit): Have you been allowed to have your phone while IP?

Yes, when I was in a private hospital there was no restriction of my phone. When I was public no way was I allowed my phone.

Do you have a creative flair when you get hypomanic?

On the rare occasion I've been just hypo and not mixed, yes. I've not necessarily been good at what I was doing but I did it anyway (think a horribly stencilled fish mailbox.....It was ugly!).


What is something you are proud you have done in your life?

I’m proud of all 3 of my kids! I have a 24 year old, a 20 year old daughter and a 5 year old son.

Are you looking forward to Christmas?

Eh, I could take it or leave it. I used to get in to decorating and the making of cookies but since my back doesn’t like it I’ve stopped doing that. Oof one year I made 16 dozen Norwegian cookies, dipped in the deep fryer one by one. Now I buy cookies and go to my daughter’s for dinner.

Have your Christmases's changed over the years?

Yes. We used to go to my parents place, but haven't since I've disowned myself and they've decided it's now a "pagan" holiday anyway. Now we just go to my husband's mom's place and hang out with his family. It's SO stressful though! Smallish house, barking dogs, loud kids who want my attention, his mom yelling at loud kids to be quiet.... I usually have a panic situation and have my husband take me home early.

Do you find the holidays stressful?

December is generally a little stressful. It’s Christmas and on top of that it’s my son’s birthday and my daughter’s birthday. Yikes. It’s a lot of presents. From a financial perspective it’s a drain.

Are you satisfied with your current med combo or is there something better you could be taking?

Well... I'm the most stable I've ever been. I'm not happy with the sexual dysfunction side effect I have from sertraline. Seriously, the ONLY side effect I get from it because other than that minor annoyance it works fantastic! Ugh. Talking to my psychiatrist again about it and seeing if there's something else we can try or do or SOMETHING. Ordered the first adult toy I've ever bought online today in desperation. Hoping that'll help things out a bit because I'm DYING HERE. I haven't been able to have an O in like two months now!

Sorry for all that TMI.

Anyway. Do you have any tattoos or piercings?

I have three ear piercings. I had a nose piercing, but I kept ripping it out in my sleep.

Have you ever been arrested?

A: Yes. Only once though.
Q: Do you have any guilty pleasures? [anything you like that other may judge you for liking, or general not highly liked -- like watching a mediocre rated movie, eating certain foods, playing a specific game, etc. ]

I play Candy Crush a lot. I know that most people were done with it about 5 years ago but it keeps my hands busy so I can focus on watching things to relax. I'm boring I guess

What are you most afraid of?

Being fired. During a manic episode. Touch wood. It absolutely never happens!

What’s been something that has happened this year that you will remember for a while to come?

I bought an almost new car. A 2023 with less than 6000 miles on it. It’s the newest fancy car that I’ve ever had and I negotiated it by myself. I expect that this is the last car I’ll ever own. I expect to quit driving before needing a new car, in about 15 years or so. I’ll remember this for a long time.

Same question
