Most common question I’ve gotten this past week: how did you get diagnosed?
Whew children gather round..
You listenin?
I diagnosed myself years ago but avoided it cause I’m high functioning and can hella perform in a depressive episode and even more when I’m manic.

But regular ole depression was a bit safer. More “manageable” as long as I stayed busy and in control. And guess what the fuck happened when the world literally stopped and I had to sit with my thoughts all day every day? I went tf crazy.
My meds no longer work. They’ve been changing for a bit now. And at one point my therapist asked if I felt I needed to be hospitalized because I was doing 95 on the Pennsylvania turnpike speeding up ever so often thinking about going straight into a protruding embankment.
And so sorry should’ve put TW before the start of this thread.
I’m just in the middle of a trippy ass episode that I haven’t experienced before and trying to keep my sanity because no psychiatrists are seeing new patients in person in this pandemic or they’re book til June
