Mental Health Poetry / Posts That Help Myself And Others
It most certainly does—and, I take pride in it! I can be feeling all sorts of “messed up,” and writing it out, changes much of that (if only temporary at times)—it does the trick! Much of what I deal with is confusion. I don’t know the rate of confusion in other forms of severe mental […]
Read More Writing Grounds MeBoth my Twitter and Pinterest accounts were put on high alert this week. I seem to remember back in the day, that you could follow people in droves. Is that not the case anymore? Which kinds of activities are acceptable and which aren’t? I spoke to Ashley from Mental Health @ Home this week, about […]
Read More My Social Media AccountsI am saddened by what everyone goes through in this community of “good” people. I go through it too. I am right there with you. We have each other for support! It may be a like, a follow, a comment, or a post… but, we all have one another’s backs! Thank you (all of you) […]
Read More We Are Worth It!!! (Words Of Encouragement)This week I am making an observation: “Gratitude and intention are two of the most loving concepts.” Please reply seriously or in good fun. (Click here for past Philosophical Friday’s.)
Read More Philosophical FridayI hate this shit. Truly. You can’t make this stuff up! I thought (and still wonder) if Bernie dropping out has anything to do with my blog. Yes, I know that Sanders dropping out of the presidential race has nothing to do with my blog. But, what’s interesting is the belief that lingers, that hangs […]
Read More Today I Thought That Bernie Sanders Dropped Out Because Of My BlogI am scared of several things right now! My health, getting COVID-19, my wife’s health, and my wife getting COVID-19. I am also fearful of not being able to make changes to my daily routine (in order to address the things I need to for my overall health’s sake). I know that I can only […]
Read More I Am Frightened, But Maybe That’s Good!I just want to get this down. And, for the record, I have no alcohol or street drugs in my system (nor do I ever). That said, I am sure with this post title, I come across as being “paranoid.” Certainly stranger things have happened than a citizen being watched! But, what about all the […]
Read More I Am Afraid Of The Government!As I sit here in the middle of the night, unable to sleep, I am reminded that I have a good 20-40 years left of my life—if that (and, if I’m lucky)! And, this is entirely contingent upon my lifestyle/life choices. I am obese and I have been for 20 years. And, it all started […]
Read More What’s It Gonna Take?I am getting closer to figuring some things out. It’s about goals. And, I do better with one goal at a time. So, for today, it might mean that I have a degree of happiness. Somewhere on the inside… 🙂 I remain symptomatic, however, and I have both delusions and hallucinations. With schizoaffective disorder, I […]
Read More What Can Stable And Functioning Look Like?That’s a pretty neat thing to think about… Having courage for a particular situation or set of circumstances. I have always been a fighter myself. For my whole life too! There were some low moments, like when I had some of my “breaks,” and was all over the place. But, perhaps the moments that stand […]
