Happy St. Patricks Day… I don’t go out… Ever.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day… a day that all of America uses as an excuse to go out and get sloshed. Instead of participating, I spent a quiet night at home. Monday Night Raw was on, and I’m a big fan of John Cena and fake wrestling. Lately, I’ve become a recluse who doesn’t like to go out. I stay at home, follow routines, and rarely hang out with friends anymore. It’s not that I don’t have friends, I received 3 calls to go out tonight for St. Patty’s. This has been going on for nearly a year now, and I enjoy keeping to myself. I often wonder if this personality change is related to my disease. At this point, I intentionally look for women who are “homebodies” and don’t like to go out and party. It’s been 3 weeks or so since things ended with my long-term girlfriend, aka the Promise Ring girl. It was a sudden and unexpected […more]
A night to remember, another panic attack and the feeling of dying.

Let me explain why I take Seroquel, which is a neat little pill that almost knocks you out cold every night before bed. In the past 3 months, I’ve been suffering from panic attacks. Usually, the attacks happen right before bed while I am drifting off to sleep. A panic attack is one of the most horrific experiences, because you think you’re actually dying. Your heart races, and it feels like it is going to explode. All you want to do is just go to sleep, but you’re afraid you won’t wake up. The doctor put me on Seroquel (which is also used to treat Bipolar, a double shot with the Lithium), because it makes you fall asleep quickly. […more]

When I am at work, I have a unique focus where I am “in the zone”. When I leave at the end of the day, it feels like I just got there. I never find myself watching the clock, and I love my job. The work that I do is my only priority, and you won’t find me wandering around the water cooler. Different supervisors and co-workers have commented on how I do a great job of getting my work done. I feel this can be contributed to being Bipolar, because for some reason the focus is beyond normal. Creativity also accompanies the focus, and I am always going “outside-the-box” with new ideas. I’m not trying to toot my own horn, I am just trying to make a point. Take a look at some of the famous/successful people who are […more]
A Bipolar Blog - Why I am doing it?
Technorati Tags: bipolar, therapy, blog
Years ago when I was going through therapy, I kept a journal. It was “recommended”, and I found it soothing. It has been a long time since I kept any kind of journal, so I decided to start a blog. I have been hearing about them for years, and never really cared to do one. I know my theme of Bipolar can be eye catching, but it is not what you expect. I am medicated and lead a normal life, but I was cursed with a gift of genes from my grandfather. You won’t find rants that go up and down, nor suicidal babblings. Sorry to disappoint, but this is for me to write about my observations in life. I do think a lot differently than the average everyday individual, but am far from crazy. I hope you enjoy my blog, and I urge you to bookmark it and check back often. Spread the word, let people know.
