derovia Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Mental illness is not something I talk about often or at length. At work it's taboo, my family doesn't get it, my SO tries to be understanding but doesn't understand, and to be truthful I'm not even sure I'm truthful with myself about it. So, I come here to talk about my problems as an anonymous name to a bunch of anonymous names with problems of their own in the hopes that I can be honest enough with you to be honest with myself. My doctor tells me I'm rapid cycling bipolar, and that I have attention deficit disorder and depression. Those are just the mental issues. There's physical stuff as well, but as this is a broken sanity board and not a broken body board I'm not sure what all is open for discussion. Hello every one, it's nice to meet you.

Thomas Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Welcome aboard! Just about any topic (related to MI) is fair game. If not, one of our wonderful admin folks will let you know. Tommy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Vapourware Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Welcome aboard, it was good to catch you on chat. We're pretty relaxed as to what we'll discuss. Anything MI, obviously, falls under our umbrella, but there is a place where you can talk about physical pain. It's here: http://www.crazyboards.org/forums/index.php/forum/38-neuropathic-and-chronic-pain/ Have a read of our rules and feel free to PM one of the staff members if you have a question.

olga Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Welcome to CB! Vape pointed out the chronic pain board, but you can also post about your marriage in the relationship forum, about your family in "Family Feud," and so on. There is probably a place somewhere here in CB to talk about almost anything. You can also write a blog, and those are totally open: you can say whatever you want. If you don't want people to see it, you can make it private. olga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetSoundsFan Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Welcome to the boards. Hopefully we'll run into eachother. I too am a rapid cycling BP I with various flavours of anxiety and delusions and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Emperor Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Welcome to the boards. As olga said, a blog is a really good idea if you don't know where your thoughts should go. There's plenty of sections on the boards for almost anything, but a blog is a really nice thing too. You'll get feedback from other members there as well as the boards. Hope you like it here, glad you found it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derovia Posted August 1, 2011 Author Share Posted August 1, 2011 Thank you all! Looks like there's a board for everything around here, which should come in handy! You certainly make a crazy person feel welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Brokendoll Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Man, lately I haven't had much choice in whether I wanted to cry or not. And it's not taking a whole hell of a lot to stimulate my tear ducts either, so you're welcome to use some of my tissues if need be, derovia! Oh, BTW, my name is Brokendoll, and I haven't a fucking clue what makes me tick yet, but it sure is driving me crazy! I'm sure you'll see me crawling around the forum and I always have tissues.
