Why did I read this as lay long with pleasure taking with my wife...

And have such a positive view of humanity and people.

Really it remains incredible that I've not gone over the edge mentally and I'm still alive at 31.

But also I've had so so much trauma and instability this year alone AND across my entire life. I actually shocked the staff on the short stay MH ward with how abusive my primary school teachers were and things like my friend was shot dead. I've been raped and assaulted by boyfriends. Poverty. Lots!

As I've had intense grandiosity, delusional fixation, referential thinking and magical thinking, and periods of hyomania and intense hypersexuality and communicated the latter to 3 people with various levels of intensity. So much shame and self hate now I'm starting to see it more clearly re therapy

So I'm learning I've most likely been in the promodal stage of bipolar for a full year; close to the edge of full on mania and also psychosis. This is helping reduce the self hate...

Many thanks!! I might not even have it but it's possible/being looked into.

Thanks for sharing. Sorry to hear about your uncle. 💓

Welcome to Viagra Town How did a small former fishing village in rural Ireland come to be responsible for maintaining the world’s erections?

Also my type in women is very femme, sorry to disappoint with my attraction to traditional gender presentations lol.

Yes, I'm bisexual but my type in men is so shaped by growing up in NI and the army and police being huge presences in my early childhood, my dad is a farmer, traditional masculinity.

Had to unmatch a fella who was attractive and seemed emotionally intelligent simply because he has long hair...😭😂

“oh so you think the east wing being demolished is worse than-“ it’s a synecdoche, man. a visual metaphor. there’s a reason the aliens in Independence Day don’t aim a huge laser at SNAP benefits

I get PIP for bipolar, it is a genuine lifeline for me. I cannot take a 4.5 grand hit and survive financially, life is hard enough. I have a small business to keep me going but others absolutely don't. The UK government is an absolute disgrace

When World Mental Health Day is over, we will still be Mad Each year, NSUN and its members witness the fleeting spark of attention which awareness days attract quickly fizzle back into inaction.

On #WorldMentalHealthDay, we once again ask whether sanitised awareness days are truly the solution to decades of chronic underfunding of statutory services, and the social and material conditions that continue to drive distress.

BREAKING: An NHS Trust has been forced to admit the potential misuse of surveillance technology Oxevision (now “LIO”) in psychiatric inpatient bedrooms at the Lampard Inquiry this week.

NSUN is calling on all trusts to suspend use of Oxevision immediately.

Need people to understand the difference between "this is a social construct" and "this is not real"

You could send a hundred straight boys into a hundred clothes shops and none of them would walk out with such a perfectly fitted, finely stitched sweater with such touchably soft fabric.

You can't buy that, you've gotta bi it.

Crazy that this photo isn't two bisexuals who live in Stoneybatter, and occasionally bring home a third they pick up at kombucha brewing courses

So the Louvre got robbed and I still need a manager to unlock the deodorant cabinet at CVS?

OK 😒

The effects of mental illnesses, autism, ADHD, etc., are absolutely valid reasons that someone may be unable to work.
It’s not about the diagnosis, it’s about the functional impact on that person’s life.
