stuff & things.
When I was diagnosed last year, I read a shitload of self-help books and pretty much every major website that is devoted to psychiatry or psychology. Overwhelmingly, the number one non-pharmaceutical piece of advice that is given to bipolar folks is to get a routine and stick to it. The best book I read on the subject, Break The Bipolar Cycle, describes BP as an inability to handle stress and...
My mother had a procedure on Friday, and my whole weekend has been wrapped up in staying on top of her post-op med regimen and helping her late at night. I didn’t feel the enormity of the situation until after the procedure, when I had to help her get her clothes on.
My mother is an extremely strong woman, who doesn’t believe in days off. She’s always tackling a project, always...

Tracy McMillan: Why You're Not Married →
Just realized this article is from like, February, but someone posted it on my Facebook stream and I had to respond to it!
It’s been a while since one of these articles about why horrible, selfish career girls aren’t married have been published. I’m so happy we’ve received this gift. Let’s go down this list:
a. Mention of how shitty selfish women are — CHECK!

an update on meds
My winter insomnia, it is back!
I hate routine but my brain seems to fall into it no matter what I do. Every winter I go through this same nonsense. So, I am the kind of lady who can have a very long, full day of activity, eat a dinner full of carbs, take an Ativan, and then remain wide awake.
My other medication got increased and now my body feels so weird; like it is not my own. It’s a...

365 days.
I can’t be bothered to check the dates on this, but it’s been a year since The Event. The Event changed my life, gave the vague feeling I’ve had in my gut for my whole life a name, and put me on a completely new path. It led to the job at Eden, which has led to many great things.
This year has not been easy, by any stretch of the imagination. There has been a lot of anxiety, a...
