The Kardashians, why I am against them and the people who follow them

There was this girl in my middle school who was suppose to be my friend and she was always nice to my face and I caught her flirting with the guy I had a crush on. Few years later in the future, she is following Kim Kardashian and she has butt implants/lip injections. What a horrible example these sluts give to humanity. #CheckInWithMe #CheerMeOn #Disability #MentalHealth #BipolarDepression #Bipolar2 #Bipolar1 #BipolarDisorder #Psychosis #ADHD #SchizoaffectiveDisorder #Schizophrenia #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder #ComplexPosttraumaticStressDisorder #PostTraumaticStressDisorder #PTSD #Suicide #Selfharm #TraumaticBrainInjury #Trauma #Anxiety #Manic #PanicAttacks #PanicDisorder #PanicAttack

Story of when I went to a residential program in Florida

So like I remember this one girl that was working at the center I was in who was really friendly. She told me to make a wish and it will come true. I think it might actually be coming true but to be honest I should have made a better wish because my life right now is like I am barely living. It would mean the absolute world to me if I got more wishes that can be granted so I can live a more happy fulfilling life. I have always been a spiritual person and I really need so many more wishes to come true. I hope I do get more wishes from someone that will be granted. I am not telling ya’ll what I wished for haha #CheckInWithMe #Disability #MentalHealth #Depression #MajorDepressiveDisorder #Mania #ComplexPosttraumaticStressDisorder #SchizoaffectiveDisorder #Schizophrenia #Psychosis #Bipolar2 #BipolarDepression #BipolarDisorder #Anxiety #PTSD #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder #GeneralizedAnxietyDisorder #ObsessiveCompulsiveDisorder #PostTraumaticStressDisorder #Selfharm #PostpartumDisorders #SuicidalIdeation #SuicidalThoughts #Suicide #ChronicIllness #ADHD #Addiction #Autism #AutismSpectrumDisorder #AnorexiaNervosa #BingeEatingDisorder #AspergersSyndrome #AnkylosingSpondylitis #ChronicFatigueSyndrome #Arthritis #Cancer #BreastCancer #Caregiving #CerebralPalsy #CrohnsDisease #EhlersDanlosSyndrome #Endometriosis #Epilepsy #Dysautonomia #Grief #Stroke #WarmWishes #MightyTogether #ChronicInflammatoryDemyelinatingPolyneuropathy #Fibromyalgia #Gastroparesis #Loneliness #CongenitalHeartDefectDisease #ChiariMalformation #FunctionalNeurologicalDisorder

I don’t want to live off of medications for my mental illness. I want to be cured forever

I wish I can function like a normal person and not need to live off of pills everyday. It would be a miracle if I didn’t need to take medications and can live life like a normal person not having to medicate myself each day. My medications that I am on for my mental illness have side effects and it sucks. I don’t want to take it but I have to do because I can’t be stable without it. Hopefully one day soon that changes miraculously and I won’t ever take back any pills ever again.

How to cope with fear of mania (newly diagnosed)

Hello, I had my first heavy manic/depressive episode in January that landed me in a mental health facility. Since then, I have been on medication that I take at the same time every morning with breakfast. However, I still get anxious about it. It's not that I fear going back to the hospital, I fear going manic and being in danger and getting hurt before I can get help. Bipolar disorder does run on both sides of my family, so I do have family members like my dad and grandmother to talk to about it. But I find I tend to get anxious in the mornings even when I've slept well because I worry if today is the day I swing back and land myself in danger (I live in an apartment with two roommates who were mostly absent when the episode happened, but knew I was in the hospital). How do you guys cope with the fear of mania or even depression?

I am almost close to 30 years old and don’t know if I have a successful future ahead

Honestly I feel like giving up on God and just keep going to the mental hospital constantly. I hate the way God made me. I have really bad mental health issues and probably don’t even have the brightest future ahead unless if I have a lucky star. I spent most of my years in and out of mental hospitals. I barely lived life and sometimes I don’t care if I die because I am not living a life I want and I feel miserable #MentalHealth #Anxiety #ADHD #AnorexiaNervosa #Bipolar2 #Bipolar1 #BipolarDepression #BipolarDisorder #CheckInWithMe #SchizoaffectiveDisorder #Schizophrenia #Psychosis #ComplexPosttraumaticStressDisorder #PTSD #Trauma #SuicidalIdeation #SuicidalThoughts #Selfharm #Autism #Addiction #GeneralizedAnxietyDisorder #ObsessiveCompulsiveDisorder #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder #Manic #Grief #Diabetes #DiabetesType1 #DiabetesType2 #MajorDepressiveDisorder #EatingDisorders

Stuck in my "Bipolar rage"

#BipolarDisorder #Bipolar1Disorder Every end of April until the end of May, I have this as I call in My "Bipolar rage". I become manic and I'm usually hypomanic for the better part of my life. I become this different person. I noticed this when I was 15 right before I was diagnosed I decided I wanted to become an actress and had to get to California. I made it to Pennsylvania from New York.
Every year I find myself driving for hours, finding myself out hiking, at the gym 2x a day, not sleeping well, or eating, filling my journal up with a bunch of thoughts scrambled into sentences. I drive irratic as I go from lane to lane getting into an accident 2 years ago because someone cut me off and I thought I could get around them. I get these racing thoughts of so many great ideas.
Yes I am in mania and although it's great for the first 2 days, it drags on for a month and it's overwhelming. By the time I get to get to a state of hypomania, my body feels like it's been abused.
This has been happening for 32 years now and today I talk about it because someone out there just might be going through the same thing. Maybe just maybe my story might help someone and that makes this all well worth it!
