Why is Faster Better?
I think the more openly we talk about mental illness the better we'll all be able to cope and understand.
but think they are alone. I know people that are in complete disbelief
that I suffer from anything (other than a serious case of constant
babble).
I dont want anyone to feel like they are dealing with this alone. Its
just too fucking hard.
I enjoyed learning about Van Gogh, as well. I had thought he mailed his ear to a girlfriend, and I didn't know about his hospitalization or the painting (which I love) being painted while there. Knowing that and looking at that painting, I can so relate to him. How weird. And very cool, too. I think I might get a print of it now - now that I know more of the story behind it and how closely it rings true for me.
I saw in Facebook that Tris had commented so I popped on over.
I have come to embrace this illness & appreciate the energy & creativity it gives me. That took me a long time though. I'll let you guess which side I tend towards.
When I see/hear people suffering I reach out to them. I agree that no one should think they're alone. Although I also believe that community managers from all over the world should connect too! I'm working on that also. :)

doing just that...
I do NOT pretend to know what struggling with bi-polar issues is like. My issues are different: ADD & depression for myself; my son with autism & depression. I do understand how nice it is when things are calm, level, seemingly balanced. :o)
I love! Van Gogh's work. I have always enjoyed the depth of his work. I think he might have been 'emo'... Just sayin' :~D
"The brush on the canvas goes swish, swish, swish, swish, ..."
work. You can just see the struggle in his brush strokes. I think
thats why he resinates with people, and they dont know why...
I feel your pain.
I also remember that song, my kids listened to it when they were small.
All the best to you.
Connie you're bang on, you have to embrace it to help. I have (more than) a touch of ADD so ... yeah I can be quite focused.
It is the feeling that you are alone is the worst. It's want makes the "bad thoughts" become darker. Having friend who keep tabs is so vital.
things that are not there. Certain colors are more vibrant or deeper.
There is a reason most of the art and tattoos I have include blue,
yellow and green.
It's in part because the extra and incorrect chemical reactions going
on in my head.
really varies. I do think that it's self-evident. The more "intense"
posts tend to be in a depressed state. The startup stuff is often in a
manic or normal state. The last two posts were in a normal state.
