Hi! Sorry for intruding, and you definitely don't have to answer if this too personnal or invasive, but I've been wondering if my depression might be a bipolar one for a while now, only I don't always see myself in the way people talk about mania/hypomania, only sometimes I do? And the way you described mania being /straightforwardly frustrating/ sort of spoke to me, so I was wondering if you could explain what you meant by that? (or direct me to posts where you have?) Huge thanks!

Hello friend!

I’m sure I have other posts about it somewhere, but short of digging through my whole relevant tag, I wouldn’t know where to look for them. But I don’t mind explaining overall.

First of all, if your depression seems to come and go, but not necessarily be replaced by hypomania or mania, it may be something else. Seasonal Affective Disorder is the most common alternative, but Cyclothymia is also a thing, and should especially be looked up if your depression also never hits a bottomless pit level. Don’t fall into the trap of thinking “well, it’s not THAT bad, so I guess I’m ONLY cyclothymic and I shouldn’t worry about it” or whatever though!! That’s just the depression talking and trying to keep you down. Ignore it.

I don’t know if I get manic or hypomanic, doctors have consistently disagreed about it. But, I know I have two main modes of mania, though they can bleed into each other.

There winds up being talk about hallucinations, self-harm, and graphic nightmares in this, so if that’s gonna bug anyone reading this, J on past it

Hyperactive mania:

What is sleep? This is not me procrastinating sleep or being distracted by other things, this is me flat out not needing more than 3-4 hours of sleep a night and having trouble getting to sleep to begin with, not in an insomnia “I’m so tired but can’t settle down” way but in a “I don’t feel tired unless I drink or take sleeping pills or otherwise really wear myself out” way.

Zero focus - I have little to no attention span most of the time to begin with (I suspect I have ADHD but most doctors will be reluctant to diagnose that in addition to bipolar, since mania has a lot of overlap). This typically gets worse during mania; I will repeatedly get up out of my chair to walk laps around my house, often gesturing wildly and definitely talking out loud to myself if no one’s home. I’ll sometimes try to play music to get the energy out to that, but rarely get through a single verse before skipping to the next.

Hyperfocus - and when I do manage to focus on something, (which has to either be something I’m REALLY ENJOYING or something social) I will get dragged into it for 14 hours and only snap out of it if I need a bathroom break or something. The Sims is a common one, not just for me but for a lot of people from what I hear. I always know something was a hyperfocus and not a thing I really wanted to do in general because after 3 days - 2 weeks of the thing I won’t touch it again for months or years. My last manic fit involved playing a sim city phone game for 6-7 hours a day and binge watching multiple people’s entire hermitcraft 4 season. The one before that had me playing rollercoaster tycoon constantly.

sex drive - suddenly characters and celebrities I had not previously regarded as hot are hot. Suddenly I have 15 AO3 tabs open. I feel like people who know me well can notice my mania just by how often and what gets reblogged to my NSFW blog.

poor decision making - I’m far more likely to buy ice cream or alcohol or other things I don’t need to be spending my money on. I’m far more likely to give in to the whole not sleeping thing, or to take sleeping meds despite cutting it way too close to when I have to be up the next day. I lose my verbal filter. I still don’t know if the fact I don’t do anything life-ruiningly stupid is evidence I’m only hypomanic, not manic, or just my anxiety keeping me in check.

Intense emotions - I cried at a University of Phoenix ad yesterday y’all. I also in general am not one to cheer or yell at something happening on TV/in a video, but get more invested when manic and react on a level closer to when I’m actively playing a game or something.

But there’s also the frustrating side (not that the above isn’t often frustrating, just that the above are more associated with positive emotions or at least not a pervasive Stressed Out feeling)

Easily frustrated - I am not one to get mad, normally. I actually get criticized for just letting things slide that obviously upset me/”you keep saying it’s okay right after saying it’s not okay”. I don’t know how to handle getting mad due to gaslighting issues growing up that I won’t get into right now so when I do start getting mad, it tends to build up until I find myself tense and literally stomping mad and sitting in the car screaming in frustration (because if I scream in the house someone might hear me). I also snap at people far, far more often when manic, losing any patience I would typically have and sometimes going for passive aggressive gouges if what they’re annoying me with has built up over a couple days as opposed to instantly. For example, yelling at people who are in my raid group.

nightmares - dear god the nightmares. I will do things in them that I find barely or completely unquestionable in them, then wake up freaked the fuck out because I just - well, we’ll go with today’s example, which is that I fuckin shot my dog in my dream, and for no apparent reason! Death is a pervasive thing in these, including me getting jolted awake by my own death in them, but unstoppable torrents of water are also common as is things just not making any sense - an object I’m holding turning into something else the moment I try to give it to someone else is also something that happens a lot

tense - dear god do my shoulders and back hurt, and not my normal everyday chronic arthritis pain, because that’s in the joints. This is every muscle pulled as tight as it will go and locked, and often carries a sensation of “the only way to fix this is to literally claw them off the bones”. Upper back is the most common but my forearms come next (especially near my elbows) and every major muscle can feel that way if I’m far enough gone. This used to lead to self-harm in the form of me scraping at those areas trying to make the sensation stop (and has lead to weird masochism stuff), but it’s something I consciously avoid now. I’ll usually try to rub at them or stretch to relieve the tightness, but often sleeping it off is my only real recourse.

really, really, REALLY unable to focus - I can’t get through two minutes of a video without pausing it. I skip every song 4 seconds in and instead of just feeling like they don’t fit quite right, each song feels like it’s personally offending me by not being the right one and I eventually give up and take off my headphones in a huff. I’ll forget I was loading the dishwasher halfway through. I’ll keep doing one more little task and one more little task for hours to procrastinate simple things like eating or walking the dog. I always in general have trouble finishing my sentences sometimes, because I’ll lose words or I’ll wind up reading/hearing something mid-sentence, but it becomes every third sentence.

Itchy - everything feels wrong. My hair has to be pinned up as thoroughly as possible so it can’t touch my skin, my glasses have to be perfectly clean because the smudges will piss me off, my clothes have to be just right so they don’t touch my skin in ways that will make me jump/itch like if my hair touches me, any rough edge of my nails or cuticles has to immediately be chewed off, if there’s a weird hair or a zit or a scab anywhere on me I will be picking at it instantly, whatever I’m sitting or laying on is too lumpy, etc. My scalp itches regardless of when I last washed my hair, but washing my hair sounds dreadful because the sensation of wet hair weighing me down is even worse (vs it normally being a soothing sensation to me). My ears itch!! it’s maddening and distracting.

noise and light sensetivity - everything is too bright and too loud! I’ll have as many lights off as possible (sitting in the dark, showering in the dark, screens all as dim as they will go; I’ll often close my eyes or blindfold myself if I really need to concentrate on something I’m typing or listening to). I try to get white noise because background sounds like the dog walking around will drive me batty, but white noise will give the same “wrong one” sensation as music, and if I notice ANY repetition in the white noise (obvious bird loops for example) unless I have deliberately chosen a repetitive melody because it feels right, I will snap and have to turn it off and probably just cover my ears for a while. 

The sensation that shit would suck less if I was drunk right now, because that would either “at least give me something to do” or “make all of this funny instead of annoying” (but alcohol only intensifies what I’m feeling, so if I’m “good” manic it makes me super happy and if I’m frustrated manic I just get angrier)

just an overall sense that everything is wrong and there’s nothing I can do about it and unlike when I’m depressed, wherein I feel like it’s all my fault and I probably deserve to die because of it, it all just pisses me off more and makes me need to get up and wander around. in the less extreme of these moments, I end up trying to figure out lists of what needs to be done, but getting frustrated trying to think that hard. In the worse ones, things will be blown out of scale and I’ll be plagued not just by the problems in my own life but by how fucking frustrating it is not to be able to fix, oh, our broken government, or how frustrating it is that I don’t have the money to just buy us a house right this second, etc.

hallucinations - this is top floor mania for me. The only thing above it is the roof that I will sometimes lay on at 2 in the morning, limbs spread as wide as possible for minimal skin contact, laughing uncontrollably on the inside while feeling paralyzed. My hallucinations are “mild” ones - I’ve only had one or two visual flashes in my life, everything else has been sounds, and it’s rarely been even words, let alone more. it’s usually alarms and sometimes music. I’ll hear my boyfriend’s alarm going off, or the fire alarm going off, or my own alarm going off, or my family’s burglar alarm going off, etc. This is one that meds have been royally good at keeping under control and I’ve only had breakthroughs of it when I’m also sleep deprived.

-basically, mania is fUCKING FRUSTRATING AS ALL GET OUT because you have all this energy but nothing FEELS RIGHT so nothing gets DONE, 99.94% of the time.

The additional problem for me with breakthrough mania - that is, symptoms that happen despite my medication keeping me mostly “normal” -  is that it rarely brings any of the positive aspects that make being manic at least fun in the moment, if not sometimes genuinely worth it. I can get a LOT done when manic if I can take advantage of it before the bad symptoms set in, and I suspect a lot of my current writer’s block issues are because I’m not getting the same kind of hyperfocus days that I used to. But boy do I still itch sometimes, boy are my shoulders craving for me to go rub on a tree like a bear, boy is my stomach cranky because I’m so hungry but eating food sounds like a horrifying chore because what if it doesn’t taste right, etc.

I don’t really know how to explain exactly what I mean by the emotions feeling stunted, but it’s sort of like trying your hardest to find the can opener because you know it’s got to be somewhere, but it’s not anywhere you’re looking, except the can opener is your ability to be excited about this thing you wanted to do, or is your ability to be mad about something you know for a fact you’re pissed about, but you get stuck sitting there just dully frustrated instead because you can only read the label of the can, not actually experience the contents? Or maybe like opening it and finding store brand, “no sugar added” peaches instead of the really good del monte overly sweet stuff; your emotions themselves just feel lackluster compared to what you know they can be.

If a lot of this sounds familiar - if you’re like, yeah I get really annoyed easily and get sensory issues etc but I thought I didn’t get mania because I’ve never been pulled over in vegas going 110 in a 45 and all the media presents of mania is that and crazy chicks putting themselves $12,000 in debt overnight and waking up with no recollection of it - then you probably have hypomanic bipolar. If little bits sound familiar but they always are accompanied by existential dread and/or the pervasive sense you’ve gotta keep moving Or Else, it could be some sort of anxiety disorder. Parts of this list also overlap with autism, or with ADHD, or with BPD, just depending on which symptoms you have.

By my understanding, the one cornerstone of any form of mania is that you feel like you have more energy than normal; not more energy than depressed you, but an actual excess. That energy can fade fast/turn out to be just a sensation and not actual energy, but the sensation is still there, and usually fucks with your sleep.

Hopefully that helped. If it didn’t, or if it did but there’s something else you want to know, feel free to shoot me another anon or a message. I might be slow to respond because my sleep schedule is currently fucked to three more hells than normal, but I will definitely do what I can to help.

FAQs

GENERAL

You didn’t write back to me! Yes I know and I am SO sorry!  Believe me – it’s not you.  I never stop writing to someone because of them – if I don’t want to write to you, I will tell you.  I stop writing because I am mentally ill and sometimes (more often than I’d like) the world gets on top of me.  

Why do you have anon on? anon hate, babe. But I’m shy and I want to send you a message… Send it anyway!  Just tell me not to post it, and unless you’re being a dick to me, I won’t. But please understand that I might not reply.  Not because of you!  But because I just don’t always have it in me to reply.  I have literally hundreds of messages in my inbox and dozens of unanswered personal messages.  It’s killing me – you all deserve answers.  I’m mentally ill.  Sometimes I just can’t. And just know that I can’t remember my own birthdate or how to spell my surname – there is nothing you could send me more embarrassing than that!

  WRITING

You’re a writer? Yes and I have had some things published under a pseudonym that I will never reveal – don’t bother asking.  But that was a long time ago.  I write fanfic and my own original work as well.  Here’s a masterpost of what I’ve put up online and here’s my AO3 I’m not the greatest writer, but I do love writing.  

Will you tag me in your writing? Yes but only if you like one of my tagging posts.  Please don’t just tell me to tag you on the end of one of my stories – I’m terrible at keeping track of everything, so those posts are my way of doing it. - Here’s the post to like if you want to be tagged in everything I write (this has links to all the other pages too) - Here’s the post to like if you want to be tagged in my MMFD writing only - Here’s the post to like if you want to be tagged in my Skyrim writing only - Here’s the post to like if you want to be tagged in my Elsa stories only

Are you ever going to finish X story? Yes. My brain is run by a dozen angry goblins who fight and squabble over who gets to drive the meat sack body at any given time.  Each one of these goblins has their own idea for a story and they won’t shut up until it’s completely done.  However sometimes one goblin is more in control and sometimes another goblin is more in charge - and I have no choice but to listen to whatever goblin is in charge. I always finish every story I start – it just takes varying degrees of time.  I’m usually working on at least half a dozen different stories at any given time – it’s the way my brain is – I have to get the stories out.  

I love your OC can I do a faceclaim? Please please please do! tag me in it.  I love seeing who you think would play them in a movie / tv series. I generally love all faceclaims unless you whitewash my oc.  Generally the race of my oc’s can’t be changed because it matters to their identity and the way the world treats them.  but if you are wanting to change the race of my characters – don’t whitewash.

I head cannon your oc as trans / queer / not-white AWESOME!  Tell me all about it!! Love it!

I have this little head cannon drabble about your oc… Write it and send it to me – I bet I’ll love it!  I get so excited for this stuff!!  If you decide to post it, just link back to the work of mine you got inspired by!

 How do you come up with ideas?  How do you write so much, so fast? I honestly don’t know. my head is a jungle (with goblins in it).  I often wonder how people don’t write like me - how do you keep all this noise in your heads?! (But apparently not everyone has this much noise in their heads.) I have a lot of insomnia and night terrors – some of my ideas come from those. \ But some just come from the goblins in my head. And for writing I just – plant the seeds and let the characters take me where they will. Sometimes they go places I didn’t expect.  I might have a trellis set up for them, but it sometimes (often) grows elsewhere and I have to move my trellis. It’s why my stories are so messy and long. I just trust myself / my head / my shitty typing fingers to tell the stories.

Why do you write so many love triangles? I know – that evil love triangle trope! I hate them.  if I have to see one more conventionally attractive, thin, white, woman in a love triangle I might punch someone named Jennifer… Yes we get it – the skinny white girl is what every man wants and no one has ever heard of a healthy polyamorous relationship - ever! BUT!  there are women out there that are never told that they are beautiful or desirable.  Big women (fat or muscular).  Women of colour.  Disabled women.  etc.  I like seeing them be loved by lots of people. Sometimes that ends up in some poly love.  Sometimes it ends up in a love triangle or love circle or love square or whatever. I want women that are never seen in positions of being loveable and desirable to see that in my writing.  

Why do you write about so many traumatic things? I may have experienced a little trauma in my life.  Writing about traumatic things is free therapy for me.  I try to do it in a responsible way.

Why do you write about bigotry etc so much? Because it exists in the world and I refuse to pretend it doesn’t or that it isn’t evil. I’ve experienced bigotry, I’ve witnessed it, I want bigotry to die in a ditch.  As with trauma, I try to write about it in a responsible way.  

How do you write such great sex? 1. I write what turns me on. 2. I’m not embarrassed by sex or by being turned on or by my own lusty thoughts. 3. I’ve had a lot of sex and sometimes (a little too often) I just write something I’ve already done.

 Why do you never edit your stories? My brain can’t focus on that – I have to get the next story out. I try not to make too many typos, but I know I do make them and I’m sorry.  

Can I make a donation to you? I am so poor – yes please!!! I made one of those ‘Buy Me a Coffee’ accounts - here

  PERSONAL

You’re sick? What happened? Are you ok? I had a staph infection (beginning of September 2017) and it went through my whole body and I went into multi-organ failure (heart and lungs).  I’ve been in and out of hospital and am still quite sick, but I’m also on the mend. Photos of me in December 2017 with my oxygen thingy Name? Emma. Star sign? Scorpio

What’s your personality type? Here’s a bunch of tests I took and results: MBTI - INFP-T 4 Temperaments – melancholic Hogwarts House – Ravenclaw Moral Alignment – Chaotic Good RHETI (Enneagram) – Types 1,2 & 4 were tied and all apply to me.  Type 5 was also tied, but applies a little less.

Country ‘Straya mate (Australia)

Do you have any pets? A kitty named Vincent – he’s the best.

Age? Probably older than you (in my late 30s.)  If you’re a minor and you don’t want me to follow you – just let me know.  

Relationship status? well after ten years with a guy named ben, he cheated on me for a year with a girl literally 20 years younger then me, and less than a month after he’d dumped me he went overseas with her to celebrate their 1 year anniversary. he left me while he was my sole care (multi-organ failure and severe mental illness) and the only source of income and also while i was at high risk of suicide.  he told me he loved me every day of our relationship - even on the day he left me.  i thought we would be together for the rest of our lives, i believed in our vows and working through our problems, but on the last day of 2017, he ended it all.  needless to say 2018 has been pretty fucking shitty.  i am at risk of homelessness and i have zero income and i’m sick as fuck. thanks ben.

sexuality? I realised I was bisexual when I was about 15.  In my late 20s when I heard of pansexual I found that I liked it and it applied to me, but I couldn’t let go of bisexual.  So I kept it.  they are both mine mwahahahaha – oh those greedy bi’s! also happy to be called queer. and on that topic - every word in the mouths of those that hate us is a slur.  i will not give them back ‘queer’ when i spent so long claiming it as mine.  they don’t get to control me. 

Are you actually fat?  Some of your pics don’t make you look fat? It’s just angles. Last time I got weighed I was 188 kilos (414 pounds) – that was at fertility doctor’s office and she told me that I shouldn’t’ be allowed to have kids cos I was fat, that fat women produced malformed kids, and likened fat parents to abusive parents.  Awesome day – I didn’t at all cry on that day.  Not once.  I put on a bit of weight then lost some since then, so I have no idea how much I weigh now and I don’t care. I follow Health at Every Size principles and since I’ve been doing that my health has improved so much over what it was when I was hating myself and trying to lose weight. Even my doctor admits that and he was staunchly against me quitting dieting and going HAES.  Now I’m trying to love myself.  And for reference – here are the pics of me

Don’t you know that you’re killing yourself being fat? I didn’t know being skinny made you immortal?? Amazing! Fuck off. Or if you want to educate yourself on why I think the way I do – start here (big fat science)

You’re mentally ill? Yep.  Diagnosed by doctor and psychologist (although I did self diagnose beforehand.  I was right so *shrugs*)

I have - C-PTSD (formally diagnosed as PTSD because C-PTSD is not recognised by the DSM, but my shrink thinks it should be and thinks I have C-PTSD), depression, anxiety, agoraphobia, depersonalisation disorder, pain disorder, excoriation disorder, claustrophobia, nyctophobia and a bunch of other things - she actually just had to write a massive letter to support me getting a disability pension - there was so much stuff on it!  i’m messed up apparently!

It’s super fun being me.

How did you get PTSD? (C-PTSD) Boy is that a story!

My half-brother Is ten years older than me raped me repeatedly when I was a child – until I was about 12 – my earliest memory is when I was about 4 and I was pleading with my parents to not make me go camping in the back yard with him alone, because I knew he’d do it to me again – but I told them it was because I was afraid of the dark.  I told my mother when I was 10 years old what he was doing – I said he ‘got on top of me and went up and down and it hurts’ – she didn’t believe me.  It kept happening.  He also like to lock me in dark closets for hours and he tried to set me on fire a few times.  Fun times (sarcasm)

My father Huge temper problem – like to use his belt to beat me – my half-brother would sometimes protect me and take the beating for me.  Wanna guess how much that messed me up? One time he nearly strangled me to death for wearing too many necklaces (which according to him made me look like a slut) – my mother had to pull him off me as I passed out He had a problem with me closing doors – my bedroom, the bathroom… which wasn’t a problem until I went through puberty.  Then he’d comment on how my body was changing – my breasts coming in, my pubic hair etc and of I was beautiful yet (I wasn’t – I never was) Always made me feel a bit icky when he hugged me, like he was copping a feel, squeezing too tight – those sorts of things.  But I always distrust these memories.  Bottom line – I don’t like believing all this bad shit about my dad.  so I always try to minimise it. Every time my mum did something bad to me and I asked him to protect me, he’d agree she was wrong, but tell me he loved her more than me so I was on my own.  The first time I remember him telling me that – I was 7.  Calls my mother stupid and hard to live with, constantly puts her down to her face and to me.  Punched holes in walls when I upset him. Told me doing drugs was fun – when I was 10.  Guess who did a lot of drugs?  Me. Verbally harangues and abuses me to this day.  My current partner says that’s he very demeaning and terrifying when he gets going. Makes excuses about his horrible child-hood giving him temper issues.  He’s been telling me horror stories from his childhood since I was a kid – it was too much for a kid to deal with. When I told him (as an adult) what my half-brother did to me he said he hadn’t known and if he had he would have done something – he agreed to never mention my half-brother’s name again or talk about him to me, and to try and get mum to comply – I’d been asking them for years to stop talking about him to me. I had a shining moment of feeling like I had an actual real father for once.  And then a few weeks later he told me that my step-brother had been raped by his father as a child and it messed him up.  I said it didn’t excuse what he did to me. So he went on to say that when he (as in my father) was a kid, his father had raped all of his sisters, and since he was the only boy, he wondered why his daddy didn’t love him.  Then he started naming my rapist repeatedly.  I’m not sure what he was trying to say with all of this – but it painfully reminded me that I in fact do not have a real father.  

My mother Was an alcoholic (sober now), who beat me, made me do all the housework (and she liked the place to be hospital clean – I was doing housework from about 5 or 6 years old), told me in detail about her sex life, and then her lack of sex life when her and dad stopped having sex (they stopped having sex when I was 16), emotionally manipulated me, used guilt constantly – even to this day, screamed and cried at me constantly… lots of emotional and mental abuse at her hands.  

Fun family. My therapist said I was surrounded by three abusers and had no safety except when one of my abusers chose to protect me from one of my other abusers.  It’s left me with a few problems.  To say the least.  I moved out at 18 by marrying a guy so I could get the fuck away from my parents.  He was emotionally distant and judgemental of my sexuality.  I stayed with him far too long because he was safe in comparison to what I’d had so far. I did the strong, repression, that childhood didn’t get me down until I was in my 20s.  had lots of sex and friends, did career things I loved in theatre and writing. Eventually needed to make real money do got an office job.  Got bullied there. Got into another job. Got bullied there. Ended up having a mental breakdown and all of this stuff came flooding in on me.  Because I never had dealt with it all – I’d just repressed it. Now in my 30s I am finally trying to actually deal with it all.  I married another guy who i thought was a good guy - who promised me everything. who told me i was safe with him, and that i coudl trust him and that he’d be with me forever. but he cheated on me for a year and dumped me after 10 years together.  knowing the trust issues and trauma background i have, he knowingly and willingly added to it by cheating on me and lying to my face for a whole year.  so that’s added to my problems! and that’s without going into the details of the problems in the relationship.  like i did things sexually for him that i woudln’t have done for anyone else because i felt like i didn’t deserve him.  and he knew that... and it kept happening anyway.  i need so much therapy!

I have real problems forming normal healthy relationships, but I have built up some close friends around me that I think of as my family, cos fuck my blood my blood relatives.  Seriously.

Can I ask you a question about your mental health / trauma? You can, but I might not answer.  It depends on where I’m at when you ask, what you’re asking, and how you ask.  It also depends on how much anxiety my inbox / messages are giving me – sometimes I just can’t look at it.

 If you have any other questions you’d like added to this, send me a message!

 I love you all – thank you for reading this!!
