My psychiatrist helped me change my meds a bit because I wasn’t sleeping. She wanted me to go to sleep earlier, get up earlier, and be active during the day. So we increased the sleepy time med and we increased the stimulation med. Except I feel like it’s all gone south. Because I don’t sleep…

Stealing the title and just a bit of my content from my travel blog here. So if you’re reading this getting upset at my self plagiarism, just read on. It’ll get better. Or worse. On the 10,000 mile road trip I was lucky enough not to experience any tickets, breakdowns, or crashes. Settling back into…

In a post about a million years ago, I referenced something I call “Depression Porn” – I guess you could just say it would be media that’s triggering. After a productive day of being depressed, I thought I’d find a new movie that sounded interesting. A movie that’s been on my watch list has been…

Last day of PHP and I’m growing increasingly sad about being done. I don’t know what I thought I was going to accomplish here but I guess I was hoping for some sort of miracle. I met some amazing people and got some great therapy out of the therapists. I’m moving on to a day…

It’s a modern looking pen. The thrust device (I looked up pen nomenclature) was unique, almost a button and a lever combined. Push the button, Click. Push the lever, Click. Click. Orange metallic with black highlights. Normal length for a pen, maybe a little bit thicker. I noticed it the other day. The click, that…

Came home, went to bed. Likely screwed up tonight’s sleep but nowhere else felt good.
