So today on Facebook I saw a post linking to Natasha Tracy’s Bipolar Burble Blog on an article about hypersexuality with the question: “Do you experience hypersexuality? What is it like for you?” and I just broke down in tears. Because yes, I do and it’s miserable and it just seems to ruin everything.

Catching Up
Since launching my Tarot Thursday project where I’ve been exploring the basic meanings of the tarot cards to hopefully give context to my writing challenges and prompts, I haven’t done much posting in the way of personal events. Continue reading
The Benadryl is Working
Two nights in a row now and the Benadryl has worked. Roughly 9 hours of sleep both nights. Also made the mistake of cutting back on caffeine intake yesterday and today woke up with a caffeine headache.
Tentative Plan to Address Sleep Disruption
Today is “Therapy Tuesday” where I visit with my therapist every week. Today’s topic was on the sleep issue and disordered thinking I posted about late last night.
Chaos Soup with a side of Word Salad
I’m reaching a point where I can feel myself physically getting tired, but unable to slow myself down enough to get more sleep. I laid down for a nap today and didn’t get a wink.

Current Plan for My Hypomania
Apparently I don’t have enough projects in my life. Maybe this is just my way of responding to the lack of constant crisis going on with my family?

TGIF Chaos Rally #22
I know… I haven’t written ANYTHING in ages (okay, it’s only been a week since the last post). It’s been an odd week for my brain. Several times I’ve found myself having spent hours at my computer, but haven’t actually done anything. My browser history shows that I hadn’t looked at anything during that time and I got next to no progress done on the current music video I’ve been working on.
Just Another Rant
Sorry I haven’t posted in awhile. I didn’t even bother with the mood tracker last week and I haven’t started one for this week yet either.
Tode’s Weekly Assessment #54
Okay, I swear I’ve set up the mood tracker chart for this week because this is what, the third week in a row now that I haven’t done it?
