The Other Me

It's poetry time! Hello, and I hope you are doing great! I'm sitting here with my cats and my loyal dog, Annie, reading poetry from other authors. She follows me around the house wherever I go, and she's the sweetest and such a goofy girl. Today I wrote a poem about the other me that forms when I need to face the world. Since I experience dissociation, I have a disconnect that kicks in by...

I did not recently write this. I found it in my drafts and thought I would post it to remember how far I've come.  Even though I thought I was in a good place when I wrote this, I am in a much better place now. Onward and upward, being gentle with myself about the losses.    I’m More than Just a Walking Mental Illness I’m a human being, just like you, and have feelings too....

No Control

    ~A poem about not having control over the uncontrollable~       No Control   I told the night to leave me, and asked the day to perish as well,  yet seasons and times never listen.   Time still moves no matter how much I plead.   So many days, I begged for tomorrow not to greet me, and begged again for winter not to arrive, even tried to will the...

  Happy Wednesday!!!     Hello, hello, hello, and happy Wednesday! It's one of my favorite days of the week because of course, it's garbage day over here. Today is also my orientation for my new job, so that will be interesting. Because of the virus, it will be through a Zoom meeting, so I won't even have to leave the house. What a strange time we are living in!     I am...

Do You Remember?

Happy Tuesday! Hello, hello, hello, and cheers to another day! Even though I begin with cheerful greetings, it doesn’t mean I am always excited for another day. Though I feel grateful and thankful right now, I tend to sink into darkness quite often, and so I need to keep myself in check so I don’t dip too low. Dipping too low into depression can be very dangerous, as you probably already...

Severe Agitation

    Happy Monday!   Hello, hello, hello, and happy Monday! Hopefully, no one has a case of the Monday's because that's no fun at all. Personally, I had a case of the weekend blues, but am hoping they don't follow me into the week. Sometimes it's hard for me to snap out of a mood; probably the Bipolar haunting me, but still, I can try to rise above it. It helps to know that I am not...

Impending Doom

 Hello, Hello, Hello! Here we go with another day, and I am feeling grateful- hopefully you are as well! The title of this poem is "Impending doom"; something I am all too familiar with. Hopefully those days are mostly in the past. Since I have a severe anxiety disorder among other concerns, a sense of impending doom arises from most things I have to encounter-  it can be quite...
