I’m truly sick of this nonsense! Chicks, it’s giving all of us a bad, bad rap. What am I talking about? The bipolar (which I from now on will call “buypolar” defense.
How many of us with bipolar disorder live day after day without managing to get our names in the news? Yes, there are times [...]

Physicians blamed the delayed care on shrinking budgets that have prompted many hospitals to either consolidate mental health services or shut them down completely.
Well that will get attention. Psych patient left to die. This hellhole is more than likely one of many.
I’m taking that horrific point and running with it…..I wonder what “physicians’” excuses are [...]

I’m spittin’ mad. This is bullshit….
The Supreme Court struck down a law that allows the execution of people convicted of a raping a child.
In a 5-4 vote, the court said the Louisiana law allowing the death penalty to be imposed in such cases violates the Constitution’s ban on cruel and unusual [...]

Two weeks ago I was at my neurologist’s office for my check-up. (I’ll leave out my trigeminal neuralgia rant on this guy for now) In the epilepsy department…he does okay.
He talks a lot. He likes to visit. He’s actually a nice guy. I have more of a problem with his office (it’s way [...]

I saw Courtney Love on TMZ tonight. Then, I did a google on her quote. This is from
411Mania
Courtney Love is blogging back at skeptics who say her latest fraud allegations are figments of a “bipolar” disorder.
The rocker raged when she read Monday that cops are supposedly laughing off the complaint she filed with [...]

I am pissed. *There is no language warning when I am postin, you know the drill by now*
How many times have I mentioned percocet? I think a few.
Suicide? Not really. Last spring it ran through my mind.
It was NOT a mental health issue. It was a quality of life issue. I could not get [...]

I want to read that book.
After years of mistakenly thinking I had right sided migraines, sinus problems and tooth pain, they all hit at once last spring (that’s putting it mildly) I found out I have trigeminal neuralgia. It hurts. I have also come to understand that my neurologist is either stupid [...]

My intention was to post about using bipolar as an excuse by so many people in order to have their bad behavior forgiven. I’ll do that later because now…….

into the lines on my face
I see all the years I’ve
spent wondering what
true freedom to “experience” life
would feel like
If only…

instead of guilt
and remorse
and this overwhelming hate of
