It's going to be a difficult month. Yesterday, 13th Aug, was a difficult day for two reasons. - In 2021 it was the day my career came to an end because of my mental illness. - In 2023 I was incredibly unwell & multiple police officers had to restrain me to stop me ending my life.

Today is important. 4 yrs ago, I met my all time best friend in person for the first time. Both out of our first psych admissions, we celebrated life together. She's kind, funny, intelligent & the best human in my life. Love you so much Lis. You are amazing beyond words

I know I have not been around for a while but I have been thinking of you all. I want to wish everyone a happy, healthy & fulfilling New Year. No matter what we have had to face in the past, we always come together & get through. I will be here more often from now on. Big love 🌻

For some, the turn of a new year isn't easy or joyful. For others, it may not be something that even crosses their mind. Just because we've entered into 2025, it doesn't require pressure to change when you don't want to. Instead, I'd love to know your hopes for the year ahead 🌻

I feel like I do this a lot but I'm sorry to those who've messaged & I've not responded! I aimed to be back being more active on here but I haven't managed to. I've been trying to find my feet in my new normal. I've had highs, lows & stability & it's been confusing & challenging!

I'm shamelessly plugging my Etsy! Life has been a bit confusing of late. Very confusing actually! Not long home from a compulsory hospital admission, for what they're saying was psychosis. Still not sure how to feel. Please take a look 👇🏼 Keep me sane! aurascraftcreations.etsy.com

I sought help for what I believed was a physical problem. What I didn't realise, and didn't believe, was that it was really an acute transient psychotic episode. I spent 3 weeks on a S2 of the MHA and had the most confusing time in a psych ward. Life really threw me a curve ball!

Hypomania, I always assumed was euphoric mood. Yes, restless, active, more energy, fast thinking and less anxious but I had always assumed it to be accompanied by an excitable and euphoric sense. I am in a hypomanic state, yet I am irritable, angry and tense. This is valid too.

In my recent psychotic episode, 'reasonable force' was used frequently. This 'reasonable force' was always 6-8 strong men inflicting pain and badly bruising my body, even when I said it hurt. Force was later used as a threat, should I not comply. This was 'safety'. l felt unsafe.

When sleep is incredibly important for your mental health, but your mental health decides sleep isn't all that important 💀

So, I was actually delusional last month, thanks to a bit of pesky psychosis, but I can tell you, I still respected & supported trans women & I still knew that billionaires, such as this twat, are all slimy, bigoted arseholes! There's got to be a whole other level to delusion!

It's been 2 whole months being unwell. First psychosis, which was incredibly scary & landed me in hospital for many weeks. Then hypomania, filled with adgitation & frustration and have spent over £2000 unnecessarily. Now I'm entering a depressive episode. I'm just so exhausted.

Set aside the jokes & dark humour, mental illness can be dehumanising, embarrassing & degrading. I have no recollection, but my notes state that during my psychotic episode, I stripped off naked in front of staff. I remained naked for some time. I force a laugh but it's not funny

For years mental health services relied on hearsay & judgement, rather than official diagnostic measures, to treat me. In 2023 I was formally diagnosed with bipolar disorder. I have verbal confirmation that I do NOT have a personality disorder. Why is it recorded everywhere then?
