  • “Okay, look, I understand this may be presenting as if I am in a manic episode, I get it. And I get that I have pulled every item from the storage room and am now in the process of reorganizing the entire basement. And yes, it is 3 A.M., but I really don’t see how that is relevant. Honestly, have you considered that I am going to need a lot more space to keep all the wood I just found on the side of the road? I swear, it’s like you don’t support my much-loved woodworking hobby I started 6 hours ago.”

    "Oooh, you know what? I’m going to give in and just build an extension to the garage for a new workshop. No, I don’t know how to build anything, but I have resources and it can’t be that difficult. It’ll be done in three days, I really feel like you underestimate just how motivated of a person I am. "

    Two weeks later, I’m hyper-ventilating in the fetal position on the floor of my closet when the city cops come out to say something has to be done with the rotting shit-wood awkwardly slapped together and nailed to the side of the garage.

    Man, I am so sorry this is your situation. I won’t pretend to really know what advice to give you, other than you should contact adult protective services and see if they can do anything since you are a vulnerable person (aka disabled).

    Again, I don’t know shit from fuck, but that’s where I would start. Idk if the cops would take the threat seriously or not, but you might be able to file a restraining order.




  • It was blue when it was previously white, but my psychiatrist had told me a week or so back that I shouldn’t worry about a color change because different manufacturers have different colors and such. So, even though the pill was blue, I didn’t question it much because my Dr. led me to believe it was nothing to be concerned about.

    Obviously I have learned a hard lesson about paying a lot closer attention to any changes that might have happened with my drugs. It’s apparently easy to overlook a major pill dosage change when no one mentions it to you. I just really don’t want something like this to happen to anyone else, I was terrified the entire time.
