Outrider Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 Is what I am. That makes it hard to find the right place to talk when I do want to talk. Lets see, I have an engineering degree from a big ten university. And I lost my most recent full time job as a metallurgist due to a massive reactive psychosis, with or without bipolar disorder. I'm still not convinced of the bipolar thing, in fact I would prefer a diagnosis of manic depressive because the latest DSM IV on bipolar strikes me as having been written up by a technical committee and as an engineer I know how those tend to work. Or not. My divorce was the singularly most disastrous event in my life (so far?) and led to my first psychiatric hospitalization. I did discover that I did want to live, however, though that led to a paradox that caused a great deal of depression before my psychotic break. Specifically "I want to live, but I can't live without her." I'm not depressed right now, merely questioning what I should do with my life and how to move on. I think that sums me up pretty well. How are all of you? [-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
