What is there to share?

Not much, but I love you all. <3

That's all I wanted to say.

Ha ha, awww!



So, I was thinking tonight about how awesome it would be to have a pet owl. I was watching a video of a baby owl getting its head rubbed, ha ha. Alas, owning an owl is in fact illegal which bums me out completely. Hmmm, maybe I'll just have to go out and buy myself a stuffed animal owl to cuddle with.

Thank you.

Means a lot itty, I feel I can be awfully obnoxious at times. Unintentionally of course, where there is love there is forgiveness and understanding.

I'm bipolar too. The illness is a spectrum, starting with unipolar depression at one end and flaming bipolar type 1 with psychotic features at the other. Low end bipolar looks like depression, with often short occurrences of feeling like yourself again, or feeling happy (the hypo manic phase) and the rest of the time usually, in a depressive phase.

Everybodies different. For me despite how much I was suffering I carried it. My wife once said to me that I just haven't been myself these last few years. Where I seem to be a little bit off someone else might be sitting on the roof naked singing show tunes while eating a live squirrel. psychiatric diagnosis can be so hard, except for that guy on the roof

Uhh, "hypomania" is not anything like feeling "normal", and Mania is even further from such. If you're Depressed, but also have moments of feeling normal, it's your standard Depression, instead of MDD (Major Depressive Disorder) which would have you depressed pretty much all the time. I've known people with Depression (NOT Bipolar Disorder), who, though predominantly having depressive moments, have moments of normal feelings.

Hypomania, and Mania, are nothing like "normal" feelings. As somebody who [legitimately] has Bipolar Disorder, and has had Hypomanic and Manic episodes, I can safely confirm this statement. I'm sure others with Bipolar Disorder would tell you the same thing.

I don't think Golomen meant to say that (hypo)mania is like feeling normal.

I do wonder about something, though: when you 'change' from a depressed to a (hypo)manic state (or back), do you experience feeling 'normal' for a while in that process? I am not bipolar and don't know a lot about it, it's just a question that popped into my mind. (That's assuming we can know what 'normal' is anyway.) (Ps if anyone who has bipolar disorder thinks this is asking for too much information, just ignore me.)

I hope everybody is doing as well as s/he can, despite all the hardships you're going through. *hug* for everybody that needs one!

Wishing all our gothy moms a wonderful Mother's Day!

^^Aww, thanks (even though I'm not a mother)!

I made the most epic sandwhich today. By epic I mean unholy calories and fat epic. ilet me paint y'all a picture of one pound of ground beef, 5 strips of bacon, lettuce, tomato, mayo, mustard, ketchup, and A1 sauce squished between three slices of white bread. I'm patenting this sandwhich has the greatest food product ever. The sandwhich deserves its own Food Network special. Eating it is like meeting your deity. Its more satisfying than sex and could quite possibly give you a stroke from the sheer awesomness. I dare you to make a better sandwhich.

One day I just might.

I'd personally season the beef and use less bacon.

That sounds like a pretty huge sandwich, but my old favourite was probably proportionately more lethal.

Cheddar and Mozerella, two types of Salami, mayonaise and sweet chilli sauce on white bread, toasted in the George Foreman grill.

Salad you say? That's for rabbits. Do I look like a rabbit?

*hides salad she was currently eating whist reading Arq's post* Yeah, salad is for wimps!

PaganMafia, that sandwich sounds really good. And I dare you to make a better one.

I did season the beef, orlok. I also but sauce on while it was cooking. It was damn good.

Sounds like quite the sandwich. Glad you enjoyed it.

I'm having cake for lunch. I know it's not the healthiest thing but ah well, it's tasty.

What is A1 sauce BTW? I've never heard of it.
