As soon as school picks up im flooded with views. I get a few from twitter, facebook, and the wordpress community too. SP gets way more and more frequently I noticed though.

Maybe some day I'll collect all of my original reflections and compile them for a book...

My psychiatrist says that antipsychotics are good for me but I don't know if I believe her.

I did brain games last night. I'm gonna keep doing those. I have so much to do.

My biggest fear is like Bill Gates - I don't want my brain to stop working.. But for me it's already damaged.. cognitively..

Anyone working on their new years resolutions?

After this story, I have to come up with another story idea. Then I'll see I if I can put them together in a 3 part series which will take some fine tuning, and I'll need to find another book cover, but nothing I can't do. I certainly won't need an editor for it.

Maybe I could edit a collection of my favorite classic poems? Maybe even give a vignette about what they mean, at least to me. O that is a rpetty good idea. maybe call it "Dualism"
Thanks for this!

These were my new years resolutions/goals
My 2020 Goals | The Daily Blue Bird

So far I've moved into a more affordable apartment. 2 more months and I'll be at 1 year of ED recovery. Beginning to pay off my college account so I can get back in classes.. Am in the process of getting the needed dental work completed. I haven't kept up with drawing due to stress of moving but I'm going to get some of my art supplies from my old place tomorrow so I can start back up with that again

You are really good with goals I don’t even remember what I resolved or if I resolved anything at all.

That's a pretty wide list! Moving is awful, but your new apartment is beautiful. I'm so jealous, and happy for you! Any idea what classes you might take?

I want to vote for Warren, but if she's too low on the totem pole by Michigan voting time I'll gladly vote for Bernie. "medicare for all" is my main issue.

1 year is a big mile stone, bb. That's awesome!

I was considering changing my major from human services/psychology over to something more practical like Information Technology. As much as I love psychology and human services I just can’t see myself becoming a therapist or social worker, it’s just too much stress to deal with personally

I totally understand that decision. I thought about going into social work and then I tried one class for it and my heart was nowhere in it. Psychology is fun and all but I could only be a professor and not in a place to empathize so deeply about patient after patient. Especially with negative symptoms.

Information technology sounds interesting. I once heard a lecture about the 3 different types of information... but I can't recall what exactly they were... Honestly, sometimes I wish I went for something more practical as well. I feel dolt that I have all this knowledge base but I can't find a practical job that will pay the bills with it!

IT is cool but make sure you can do it at a higher level than help desk....a lot of help desk positions have turned into call centers....don’t get me wrong it can still pay well but there is a lot of pressure. Personally I like system administration but you need a put least a little bit of coding to automate stuff.

But yeah I considered a therapy role before realizing it could be super triggering and a ton more school.

Yes I'm definitely going to make sure I can do it at a higher level

I’m so tired. I’ve only been getting 4-5 hours of sleep a night when normally I get 8 and a half to 9 hours.

I'm trying to trigger the euphoria I was feeling a few days ago. It's so amazing, if I could just feel like that 24/7, it's like being high but without drugs

Have 3 appointments on Tuesday. Almost back to back. One with the care manager, one with my dentist, then one with my eye doctor

I really need to start drawing again, I miss it. I guess there's no reason I can't draw on lined paper till I get my art supplies over here

I like this site, it has some cute art tutorials, it's meant for kids but it's still cool

How To Draw Archives - Art For Kids Hub

I'm planning on getting a desk for near my windows in the living room so I can draw and whatnot there
