Help from afar
Sometimes people who are addicted to drugs or alcohol should really consider getting as far away from the epicenter of their activity as possible in order to heal. Living in New Jersey, I can say that the Los Angeles Residential Drug & Alcohol Treatment Center would be a nice facility to look further into for [...]

Psychiatrist Update: They changed it for me
Llast night I got a phone call from the person who was supposed to be switching my psych. She called me back really fast because I left her a second message yesterday morning that I had a complaint about the doc, which is why I was changing.
She IMMEDIATELY changed my doctor before she called me [...]
HOLY Bipolarness, Batman
UGH I hated the visit with my psychiatrist today. I am going to switch. I went back over our entire visit in my head, and it just PISSED ME OFF more. Yes I said MORE. He didn’t listen to what I said that didn’t fit into the criteria for bipolar, he just put me in [...]
Miracle pill for mental health issues
What if there was ONE miracle pill that made all that cease?
Who would I be when it’s all said and done?
Would I still be creative?
Would I be likable?
Would be catatonic?
Would I be a good mother? A good wife?
Would I just sit like a bump on a log watching the world pass me by?
Would my [...]
One in 4 bipolar, the bipolar patch
I was just reading that one in 4 patients with a major depressive disorder actually have bipolar. Is that hard to believe? Well, I don’t know. I just know that it is an awfully high number. Technically I come from a family of 5. By all rights, that means that my sister *should* be bipolar.
I [...]
The doctor at 1pm today
I would be totally lying if I didn’t say that I am nervous. I am nervous… and angry. I will be sure to tell the doc that I don’t appreciate the long wait to be seen. I will probably ask how many patients commit suicide before they are seen by the doctor. She probably won’t [...]
Losing weight, lessening depression
I am finally seeing results in my fight against the bulge. The smaller my waist gets, the better I feel about myself in general. I am getting to see my abs again. Hallelujah! In my fight, I have been looking for something to help me lose the stubborn stuff, you know, my spare tire. I [...]
Thoughts: The road to the pole
My good friend Fave has piqued my interest with his post about strippers. He poses a question that really needs to be answered:
I would often look into (the strippers’) eyes and wonder what brought them there…how is their road to the pole paved?
I can give you a clue as to what paves the way for [...]
Doctor Update
Cybercelt asked if I had been to see the doctor yet. The answer is no. They have not called me at all. I am sure that they are still backlogged with patients that came before me. It’s terrible. I am fighting so fiercely to stay okay. Yesterday was a hard one for me. I felt [...]
