All About Bipolar: Humor-Because I need it
Posted By atorturedsoul on July 18, 2009
I normally don’t post much on the weekends, but I need a little humor today. I’m in a funk and in a few hours I will have to put on my ‘I’m in public happy face personality’. Right now, I am going through the ‘my whole life is shit and not one person around me understands’ funk, so I don’t really have the energy. I’m just waiting for one person to say that it’s okay to be mad and sad and screwed up and it doesn’t make me a bad or weak person. I am so tired of people asking, “What is wrong with you?” If you have been around me a while and you haven’t figured it out then you never will. And the cheese stands alone….lonely and lost and looking for something but never knowing what.
I’m listening to The Cure today. Homesick, specifically. I’m really in a bad place right now.
Just one more and I’ll walk away
All the everything you need turns to nothing today
Just one more, just one more go
Inspire in me, the desire in me
to never go home.
I am giving myself a pep talk. Wish me luck.
Anyway, on to the humor part of this depressing post…
Noah's Ark: The woodpecker has to go
My sister-in-law said something last night that made me think of this.
A very tall giraffe
Speaking of animals, is it just me or are giraffes getting taller?
S.S. Minnow turns to S.S. Whale
Fat guy in a little boat! Some of you are saying, “Huh?” Chris Farley…Tommy Boy…he puts on David Spade’s coat and sings, “Fat guy in a little coat!” Too funny. I loved Chris Farley.
Save the planet, kill yourself
This is for a certain person in Memphis, TN…a scumbag who abuses women. Most of you won’t find it funny, but I am amused and certain readers will understand what I am talking about here. Before anyone gets all worked up, I am not suggesting suicide to anyone. It’s an inside joke that I’m keeping to myself.
And on that note, I’m outta here until Monday.

Hi
I actually have just got off the phone with my neighbor -and googed antipsychotic meds- she was talking about one of our clients – confusing- I am a real estate agent- she ( Tammy) is my stager/decorator). I just sold this ladies house – who had a heart attack last night – and Tammy said it is pobably for the better as she was very depressed and in her 70’s, blah, blah – i said well I take meds and Tammy said “well you take psychotic drugs” – so I google this – bi polar pops up on the first page – ….and then I want to cry because I am always in denial – i have the rapid-cycling form……
and when I am open to certain people and tell them i am bi-polar cause i feel maybe they would understand me more – they seem to treat me different after that – like maybe i am stupid or something
so when i went to this site – there you were..blogging – and when you said yyou were sad – i had to answer…
you will feel better – it is ok to feel this way –
sometimes i say to my friends- ” i dare you to step into my body for 1 day” – everyone always laughs – but no one ever says – oh i would love that
I live in Ottawa Canada- I am divorced – 2 kids – 22 and 24 years old still with me – they say i make their life miserable- I am a very successful real estate agent – make a 6 figure income – only cause i work really hard – and for the hours i work i should make a lot more – but it takes a lot of time for me to do what everyone else can do in way less time.
do you have trouble focusing ?
great to hear back from you – i have to get ready for my open house-
this is the first blog I have ever done – thank you
Jo
I have a lot of trouble focusing at times and I have found that many of the medications used to treat bipolar disorder make that even worse.
I don’t have a problem telling people anymore. It makes me mad when people act stupid and others will say, “I think they are bipolar.” That’s usually when I pop up and say that I have bipolar disorder and it never fails to shut someone up. I think a lot of people have no clue what it is. They associate everything bad with it and it has become a label used to describe not so nice people, which makes it worse for us. People just assume that we’re raving lunatics waiting to go on a rampage. I have my moments but I don’t think I’m going to turn into a serial killer or anything any time soon. lol
I used to feel guilty about the stress it causes my children, but I have finally come to terms with it. It’s not any different than having a parent who is chronically ill. We ARE chronically ill. If a child has a parent that requires constant medical care and is always sick then they are stressed. It isn’t the parent’s fault and it isn’t our fault either. It’s an illness and we can’t make ourselves well. We just manage it the best we can and that’s all anyone can ask of us.
