That's great that your eye is better.

Lamictal treated my anxiety and depression also. But I still had more negative feelings while on it compared to an SSRI where I felt NOTHING. It made me feel more human, which gave me more motivation. Even negative emotions have their purpose if they aren't an extreme defect.
Thanks for this!

Buy all the cigerettes from the store and make them all come to you to get smokes, and then raise the price of cigerettes and they are forced to pay more. If they can't pay then make them do favors for you.
Thanks for this!

I'm depressed again I can feel it.

I threw up at work yesterday. Probably from chugging rum hours earlier. Day drinking is bad, okay.

Why can't I just be hypomanic I'm awesome when I'm hypomanic I hate this **** I hate everything.

I really don't know, but I trust that website. It's part of mobile nations which is the most popular website for phones. Windowscentral use to be all about phones but since windows phone plummeted its all about windows everything.

Thank you, sp. It's the eclipse. It happened on my Sun. So, it put my lights out for a year, and blots me out. I'm so tired of bad luck. What am I supposed to be learning from this? I've already had trouble holding onto faith. I guess I still have to try.

Do you know anyone that can bring you library books, angel? Maybe now's the time to read the Count of Monte Cristo.

Yeah, I used to want to drink during the daytime too. I used to go to a bar between clients back in the Chicago days. It worked wonders for my personality. It helped me make a friend of a coworker that lasted for years. Up until then we sort of hated each other.

I tried to drink during the day in high school too. Wasn't successful because of having to hide the bottle. I didn't have a flask. I put it in little jars to carry with me.

I can't drink anymore. Since I've had kids I just get sick. I'll occasionally have a glass or two of wine but that's my limit.

I'm tired too. I think I'll snuggle up with a blanket and take a nap.

Hey everyone, how are things going?

I'm doing okay. Feeling better today and hopeful. Went to the store to pick up some supplies. 3 days now without stalling the car.
Thanks for this!

I'm over at my mom's house taking care of my cat as she is out of town. My cat is so interested in the sound coming from my laptop. She keeps coming by to investigate it and rub her head all over the computer.
Thanks for this!

A friend of mine sent me this video:



I feel like this marks a turning point for me with how I handle voices and such. I've never liked the idea of being medicated over them, it feels constantly like I'm being controlled. Watching this made me rethink *what* the voices have been trying to tell me, and next time I will listen. After all, they are a product of my brain. I want to try and work through this with CBT. If she and others have been able to do without medication, I feel I can too.

Ok here is the thing...voices can be dealt with with cbt but delusions are almost impossible to deal with without at least a low dose of meds.....my approach is as little medicine as possible...it's worked for me for me but obviously I respect your right to choose what will work best for you...hoping for the best outcome for you....I also tried the no med route...I think we all have....
