Body, Not Brain

The Scarlet B Posted on July 6, 2017 by RaeynJuly 6, 2017

I have been rubbish about checking in here… sorry about that. But like, most of my problems these days have been physical rather than mental. Even with having been putting up with a bullying situation in my social group, the … Continue reading →

Clearer Waters

The Scarlet B Posted on October 2, 2016 by RaeynOctober 2, 2016

  Last week, one of my friends was committed. It turned to to be totally voluntary and she’s out now, but the two people making the announcement about it were very thoughtless in their word presentation. One person said that … Continue reading →

Sad, Not Depressed (A Tiny Fib)

The Scarlet B Posted on October 12, 2015 by RaeynOctober 12, 2015

Earlier this week, I was sad. Just sad. Sad is different from depressed. Unfortunately, it’s such a huge dose of sad that now it’s feeding depression, which is feeding sad, and let’s go spinning down down down. *sighs* You see, … Continue reading →

That’s… Probably Not Good

The Scarlet B Posted on October 3, 2015 by RaeynOctober 3, 2015

So after feeling so rubbish and depressed at the weekend, I’ve had a really good week? I’ve been really productive in doing work things, though admittedly my daily focus hasn’t extended much past that. I like working, even if it’s … Continue reading →

World Suicide Prevention Day

The Scarlet B Posted on September 10, 2015 by RaeynSeptember 10, 2015

Like many (most?) amongst the Bipolaratti, I too have entertained the notion of killing myself. I’ve even had one incident since getting diagnosed with bipolar, but thankfully, only the one. Having said that, I’ve not trended much towards suicidiality. I’ve … Continue reading →

Inner Safety

The Scarlet B Posted on July 5, 2015 by RaeynJuly 5, 2015

Yesterday, like most Americans home and abroad, I had a little BBQ with friends and family. This was the fifth annual iteration that we’d been doing it with one of my ‘local’ ex-pat friends (she lives a couple of hours … Continue reading →

Down the Pub

The Scarlet B Posted on June 6, 2015 by RaeynJune 6, 2015

One thing that I do to mask my illness enough to look vaguely functional is to operate almost completely out of designated safe spaces. The main one is, of course, my home. I’ve got a safe nest built with lots … Continue reading →

Brains are Stupid. Triggers are Stupid.

The Scarlet B Posted on May 3, 2015 by RaeynMay 3, 2015

  Man so, my brain was being especially stupid yesterday. One of my dearest friends is very active on Tumblr. His account is the only one of more than 1-10 posts a day I follow… not on Tumblr itself because … Continue reading →

The Scarlet B Posted on April 3, 2015 by RaeynApril 3, 2015

Dear Daughter, Here’s Why I Don’t Work Dear Daughter, Here’s Why I Work Gah. When I was pregnant with my first child, I made a conscious decision to avoid parent-to-be boards. Being mentally ill and chronically low on spoons, I … Continue reading →

Not Sure If…

The Scarlet B Posted on July 31, 2014 by RaeynAugust 28, 2014

I am rather unsure about the state of my mood at this time. I’m in a good mood, but I am feeling a bit more irritated. The line on the meme-picture came to my head after I got home from … Continue reading →
