A safe place to share your ups and downs - Join us and tell your story. It matters little whether you're bipolar, manic, suffer from depression or just normally need a little (or a lot of!) encouragement and entertainment. My story is pretty funny to me now, but that's because I am not currently incarcerated or in an institution! C'mon in.
I think I got screwed up when I arrived.
I do not think I was supposed to be born. My mom was 40 when she bore me; back in the 50's that was a... Read Full Story

The first comment we get that describes how to get to the code (accurately) through the "Tinker... Read Full Story

The accepted wisdom was always that bipolar disorder, or manic depression, only developed in adults. This was despite evidence from early researchers that some adult symptoms had in fact emerged before they were ten years old. But the result of this assumption was that manic depression treatment methods were always geared explicitly toward adults. It wasn’t easy to find... Read Full Story
This entry might be the most important one on my entire website. I'll probably post it now and then because it is critical. I've stated before that my goal is to first encourage; entertainment is secondary.
Just because I'm stable now and quite content with my life doesn't mean I haven't had an easy road. I've been through hell and back and so has my family. My bipolar along with some stupid decisions caused me to be stripped of almost everything. Because of this, I take nothing for... Read Full Story
I know what depression means but I can’t get my head around what manic is. How dose it affect people with this illness in the sense of their personality e.g temper, happy, or sad ? Read Full Story
