Mark the day: Psych finally called
yesterday. That’s right, after my crises have been averted, I finally get a call back from the psychiatrists to make an appointment for next Tuesday. Of course, it’s not a day my husband has off or even works later in the afternoon. This means I have to find a babysitter the day before and put [...]
Fight the fright
I am still apprehensive about going to the doctor. I keep thinking it’s about me giving up. Like I raised the white flag and shouted “I surrender”. It’s like admitting that I have a problem and I’m not strong enough to deal with it alone. It’s not something that I can do easily.
Self sabotage: the inevitable truth
I always sabotage my relationships with people. Some get over it, others don’t. Some of us fix it, others of us just stop being in any type of relationship. I have been good at this for a long time now. A slip of the lip, the wrong things written somewhere…it’s the inevitable truth of my [...]
Do you really want live forever?
I don’t know if I would really want to go on living in this world forever. I have heard so many times that they are trying to improve cryonics so people are able to do just that. I wonder what people are thinking when they say “hey I think I want to be immortal”. I [...]
Transcending Psychosis

The three-story, 112,500 square-foot-building has a glass-enclosed lobby, an atrium topped with a large skylight and a rear façade made entirely of [...]
Bipolar Disorder and Depression across the Web
Questions about bipolar disorder and depression have been found across Yahoo!Answers.
Graham’s blog is a lovely mish-mash of life and revelation through his experiences with bipolar disorder.
Alcohol abuse is higher in bipolar sufferers, research has just updated about this phenomena…makes perfect sense to me, though. Depression itself leads people down dark pathways of addiction to different [...]
Depression/Bipolar:Personal Notes
I have been told to do my business or get off the crapper lately because I keep talking about what I am doing and how I am doing it, why I don’t trust drugs and psychiatrists, and generally how I am going to get through this without drugs. Apparently, I have drawn some negativity from [...]
Psychology: Online courses
Cappella University offers an online course for psychology. It would benefit someone like myself who needs to know more about this condition. I only have an Abnormal Psychology book with minimal information. The course in psychology is graduate level, though. Cappella is a relatively new place, only founded in 1993. They are accredited, though, and [...]
