I thought I would write about being Bipolar. There seems to be a notion that if one has mental health issues they are "crazy". This is one reason people don't like to acknowledge there is a problem.
I have known for over 15 years that I'm Bipolar. I don't have hallucinations and I'm not psychotic. I am currently symptomatic and I'm choosing not to take medication. My symptoms are I'm irritable, moody, paranoid, periods of crying, don't sleep, isolates and low motivation. When I'm tired or under extreme stress, my perceptions can be distorted and my paranoia increased.
With this being said, my cyber stalker is real and has been for months. Most of the time, I could care less but she seems to attack when I'm overwhelmed.
I do believe that if I find the right person, I would be able to handle my symptoms. The one concern I have is sub drop. With me already experiencing the depressive side of Bipolar, what would sub drop do to me?

Sorry that you are dealing with a stalker. The vast majority of the time, bloggers are friendly and supportive and I don't understand why somebody would stalk another blogger although you are not the first one to have to deal with a stalker.
ReplyDeleteAnd I really don't know how being bi polar would affect sub drop. If you find the first person, you would certainly have to discuss this with him and maybe not have real intense sessions at first and kind of work up to it. And do you mind saying why you are not taking the meds? Anyway, good luck. You have a lot of your plate.
And thanks for your kind words about my story. It helps give me motivation to write more.

My stalker isn't a blogger. She developed an ID so that she could comment on my blogs. Well she wanted to try and embarrass me by putting her spin on things.
DeleteI'm hoping the right person will help with the potential sub drop. But since sub drop can mimic depression, I'm afraid that it will just sink me further.
As for your writing, I have been a fan since the first time I read. I had to go back and find all the chapters.
I have no experience with bipolar, but I have experienced sub drop before. I think it's one of those things that is avoidable with lots of help from the Dom. I would imagine that discussing your concerns and what it's like being bipolar would probably help to avoid having it at all.
ReplyDeleteThat said, I'm rarely right when I think I am lol.
Best of luck getting rid of your stalker...I think some people just have way to much time on their hands.
Thanks lil...I appreciate the support. I try to be upfront with those that I meet but I think that is the underlying reason I have limited my play.
DeleteAs for my stalker, I hope she finds some purpose in her life other than me.
