Body Memory sparking psychological memories?
It's one of those nights where I can't sleep and have fallen into a contemplative mood I guess. I've had an experience this weekend where I really need to wonder, does the body contain physical memory? I know our brains carry memory but do our bodies as well? Lately I have been wondering ( Read more... ) -
So I finally have a laptop again and can once again post
Wow, it's been ages since I've been on here. So much has happened. I must apologize to my concerned friends, I had a bad spell awhile back and managed to get to worked up I threw my laptop across the room. It officially died and I was out of touch for awhile. I've finally managed to get leveled out with medication that I hope will work this time. I ( Read more... ) -
Damn ten days since I've visited here last?
Wow, sure as hell doesn't feel like that. Finally, after a major depressive episode that lead to another brief stint in a hospital, my psychiatrist finally agreed that we need to make a switch. But, I'm actually feeling quite good at the moment ( Read more... ) -

When I asked him, he replied: "It's a musical about a woman and her family and she's suffering from Bipolar Disorder ( Read more... ) -
Should I Be Offended, Morbidly Amused or Glad...?
My nine year old cousin is visiting with me and my family this weekend. And, after ice skating (my body is still protesting teaching her how to skate), we drove back to my house and were playing around on the computer. She was excited to show me how good she is on facebook and all the games she plays. So, after playing farmville until I wanted to ( Read more... ) -
Thanks so much...
I just wanted to take a moment to thank everyone for supporting me through this extremely difficult time, especially med_cat and wirral_bagpuss. Your friendship is more appreciated then I think you'll ever realize. *many hugs* -
R.I.P. Billy
Wow, I just...I don't even know what to say, or how to react. My thoughts are jumbled, a running mess of crap mostly. I've come out of my depression, as I've stated earlier, and I called my friend Billy to tell him I've finally done it. I leveled out, like he said I would. He always said if he could become stable, it was possible for anyone. So I ( Read more... ) -
Seeing Nature through someone else's eyes.
During class today, we had to walk to the Museum of Natural History to spend some time in the gem and mineral display, attempting to connect, on some level, to the beauty found in that room. Well, it was an interesting and profound experience for me. Walking to the museum, I had to opportunity to spend some time with Ellen Goldman, our professor. ( Read more... )
