Pandora’s partner, A, discusses her psychotic and dissociative episodes, and how he has curiously found these instances less frustrating than her periods of depression. [...]
I deal with a set of symptoms representing the diagnoses of BPD, C-PTSD, clinical depression and social anxiety on a daily basis. I fall victim to the nefarious antagonists of psychotic and dissociative episodes with more frequency than I would care for (although I must hat-tip the efficacy of Seroquel in decreasing the former, having [...]
Life continues to revolve around being mental; this week I saw both my psychiatrist and, of course, not-for-much-longer-my psychologist (blog to follow on him), and next week it’s my (lovely) GP and, again, not-for-much-longer-my psychologist. Yippee. Joy deep in my heart. Being this mental is a full-time job, you know. Those of you that actually [...]
I hath returned, good readers! I hope this post finds you well and contented. “Well and contented” would be a laughably optimistic description of my current physical and mental status, at least in some ways – but we’ll start with the good things, shall we? I’ve had the pleasure these last few days of connecting [...]
WARNING: Pointless, Childish Rant for the Pure Sake of Venting Coming Up. If you have: any sense an aversion to cursing a belief in blood being thicker than water a hatred of gratuitous, not-really-emphatic bolding or if you generally hate me for whatever reason then you probably shouldn’t read this. If, however, you are my [...]
I often get the impression that my mother relives her experiences of domestic violence at the hands of my father vicariously through me. I don’t mean that in the sense that she necessarily has visions of me knocking seven bells out of her, or that she sees my face when she recalls violent incidents, but [...]
I’ve made a few references to the relative anonymity of this blog in recent posts (here and here) and decided I would explore it more. I know many bloggers here in the madosphere write anonymously in order that they may reveal their deepest, darkest thoughts with complete impunity; for example, Bippidee gave a very good [...]
If you follow me on Twitter, you may have seen the other day that I had asked the Twitterverse how difficult it was to change one’s name by deed poll (it turns out that it’s actually very easy, if logistically something of a pain in the arse). I have been thinking about changing my surname [...]
I found this insightful (if concise) article via Twitter today. I was utterly astounded by how much of it describes my behaviour after my uncle raped me when I was about 10. I don’t really fancy getting into the ins and outs of the incident at the minute, though I’ll explore it more in a [...]
It’s been an odd few days in the world of SI (as if it ever isn’t). There is stuff I probably should write about, but as of yet I do not feel that I am at liberty to do so. Suffice to say for now, I’ve been experiencing a lot of mixed episodes, which are [...]
