Quote from: Dalmatian Bobby Samaritan on August 26, 2026, 12:37:38 PMI've thought about doing a blog or some kind of stuff like that. Years ago. I get manic and write a bunch of stuff down...I've written some songs, poems and the like, but then I hit depressive episodes and end up like tossing the stuff away in the trash or just hide it somewhere and forget about it. A bid in a hospital would be ideal, honestly.Quote from: HappyGilmore on August 26, 2026, 09:46:19 AMI'm finally working again so I'm hoping to earn enough money to get my insurance back because right now I just can't afford them without insurance.
Let us know how that all goes. Because a lot of us are in the same boat. It would be cool if you could make a blog or something and do like a month to month thing. I have a blog but barely anyone looks at it. And I think me being Bipolar has something to do with that. Because you get into some kind of high where you get into a certain mood or feel and start posting and putting up chunks and chunks of material. And then something like a Dead zone happens. And you neglect it for like a year or more. And you look at your activity and it is kind of pumping and doing good for those moments when you are productive. But then when you stop it is like those people are wondering, Ok..What the heck happened to that guy. Nothing.
They are like "I liked what he/she was saying!" Yeah I mean it sucks. I got a bunch of likes and things too, but then when you hit that low and stop posting then you don't get any likes anymore. Of course it is because you aren't posting anything. The actor Joe Pantoliano has Bipolar. He has talked about it. No offense to him or people who like him, but I don't really get any inspiration from him talking about his Bipolar. I mean there are a lot of things that inspire me or get me feeling good and positive — like to get through it. But unfortunately you can't really convey some of those things like in a blog. It is basically just things that you keep to yourself. Actually checking in possibly to like a mental health clinic for a short stay isn't actually a horrible idea. They do things like activities and stuff and sometimes yoga.
