My space, here on Bluesky, is my mental health (MH) journal, I have issues and I'm constantly in motion learning to deal with them. I've come a long way, and I use this journal to work things out

I'm not here to be fixed, I'm not broken. I need to write, think, interact, understand, and move on
Currently i am the face of cognitive decline

Speaking, conversations, memory, words borked

But i am also the face of letting go and moving on

I see the glitches, can't do anything but keep moving (ok, naps are good)

I built my house right on the edge of the Abyss; we sing to each other and engage in meme-crimes-sharing

This is how I learned to manage my issues with psychosis (psychoses)

After years of mapping symptoms and actions and outcomes it became apparent that every one of my psychosis episodes begins with simple paranoia. If I manage that paranoia I do not have a psychotic episode

Mach 5 hypomania for certain. [Backspace] remains robust and necessary

Sleep - Mebbe 4hrs (but nap yesterday afternoon

Coffee - ✅

Mixed-state hypomanic-heavy swing (Mach 4+)

Addressing my staging areas in the house

Licking my knuckles (no I am not, shut up)

Things that test my self-management schemes...and force me to adjust my course...and keep me on my fumckin toes, JFC...

I post a lot of stuff, but at it's core I'm posting so that I can keep track and understand. It's all about understanding-driven self-management
This year has been hell for me in my personal life and I'm gonna top 100 distinct bipolar swings this year

Just took a sip of water from my glass and out of the edge of my vision I saw a critter on my Left paw. Oh, those are lines of ink

I want to be tired. We're gonna see...in a bit...

I've never been able to summarize what I am. But I am what I do, so that makes it messier to figure out

[Backspace] is working brilliantly'ish and is necessary. Not mania, but hypomania

Roomie has spent most waking moments working and doing daily living stuff in his van with an eye for live-a-bility. Gave him a lighting primer, talked about USB lights and 12-volt lights...and superbrightleds.com

Also, I bought some more garam masala last night

I got every kind of advice from people on how to manage the pain of knuckle tattoos. The guy who did my crow tat told 4 of them to look at my head tat and then STFU. I laughed, and I'm grateful

There are creams, there is ice, there are so many choices

I choose to enjoy my pain, thamkewes

The tattoo artist asked me what I wanted and I spelled out the mechanics. And he asked me again what I wanted and I said (what I have said 5-times now)...

I want you to be an artist and be happy with your work. I'm gonna flash that tat everywhere...but I believe in letting artists be artistic

Part of me wants me to shut up, the other part of me...

I'm 61-years old and ultradian bipolar with brain damage(s), and I am *never* stable. But I am the poster child for self-managed...and that's always one breath away from mayhem

In the moment I love mayhem

Braim is managing, using my tools

I'm not the get-a-tattoo-on-a-bipolar-upswing guy; I'm ultradian bipolar and don't have that much skin

My tats have to have significance to my life, i consider them for years

Stay the course; hold fast; don't react, respond. It's also an alert to others that I'm working on it
