The Scarlet B Posted on October 31, 2015 by RaeynOctober 31, 2015

I’m alive, I swear. Sort of. Somewhere. It was half-term this past week, and my eldest once again ended up sick for the entire duration of a holiday period. Earlier in the year, that meant two weeks of chickenpox (conveniently … Continue reading →

Happy and Sad Together

The Scarlet B Posted on October 18, 2015 by RaeynOctober 18, 2015

The past week or two had reminded me that happy and sad are not the same thing as hypomanic and depressed. I’ve been a bit depressed, yeah, but I’ve come out of it enough to like, do more than basic … Continue reading →

For Every High, There is a Low

The Scarlet B Posted on September 29, 2015 by RaeynSeptember 29, 2015

And so on from that song that was in The Sword in the Stone. This line is the main one of interest. Which is to say yeah, I’m down. I’m keeping it together, but I’m down. I almost started sobbing … Continue reading →

Up, Down, Left, Skitter

The Scarlet B Posted on September 22, 2015 by RaeynSeptember 22, 2015

I’m not sure I can blame the increased dose of Depakote, but my fatigue levels are pretty bad right now. There’s probably some cyclical contributing factors as well, but man. I don’t want to move. I just sort of want … Continue reading →

Freedom To/From

The Scarlet B Posted on September 7, 2015 by RaeynSeptember 7, 2015

I have now officially survived my first summer break as the mother of two children… both of whom have been doing their darnedest the last couple of weeks to get on my last nerve. I can’t say going down to … Continue reading →

What the Headache

The Scarlet B Posted on August 23, 2015 by RaeynAugust 23, 2015

Amongst the assorted uses for Depakote, it’s supposed to be good for migraines. I get migraines sometimes, so I was okay with this. Instead, I’ve got headaches. Hrmph. You’d think something good for migraines would help with headaches, but whatever. … Continue reading →

The Longest Hypomania

The Scarlet B Posted on August 9, 2015 by RaeynAugust 9, 2015

Historically, when I have a period of hypomania, it lasts a couple of days and then passes on. This has been a couple of weeks now, if not a month plus. And how do I keep getting reminded that it’s … Continue reading →

The Scarlet B Posted on August 3, 2015 by RaeynAugust 3, 2015

So like, I wrote my blog post yesterday, and I was all ‘Yeah cool, survived a panic attack, no big deal.’ And then I had another one. What. the fuck. I have never had two before in the same day. … Continue reading →

A Panic Attack? Rude.

The Scarlet B Posted on August 2, 2015 by RaeynAugust 2, 2015

Uuuuuugh, my body-brain combination are really trying me. I’ve had a nasty cold the last couple of days, which is hopefully cresting right now. At least, I was really dizzy yesterday and am not quite so dizzy today. I managed … Continue reading →

One Thing Down

The Scarlet B Posted on July 22, 2015 by RaeynJuly 23, 2015

I’m fratigued, and I’ve got a checklist. The Mirena insertion went well. Like, really well, less noticeable than a smear test sort of well. So that’s good. It’s going to be a bit before I get over my terror that … Continue reading →
