From what was essentially a pretty good week, not including a slight double up of meds, things have really taken a downhill slide today. Woke up thinking about feeling very dark and very quickly progressed into fantasizing about the big leap. Had to catch a train to get dosed at my clinic and was picturing myself kissing the train. Now im home and its still there. Worse than ever. I know it has alot to do with been alone today but I dont want to be near anyone. That would just remind me of my difference to everyone around me. So im blurting this out in the only place I feel safe enough to say it in the hope that it goes away.
Hope everyone is safe.

You know I got your back bro. Keep your head up. It sounds like things have been going good for the most part, everyone has a bad day every once in a while STAY STRONG.
Thanks mate its nice to know. Cheers
HI Soco, I used to get all kinds of weird assed ideas. Compulsive thoughts from driving my car head first into oncoming traffic to jumping in front of the L in Chicago. Or stabbing my hand with a knife. These ideas would be really strong when I was on medicine. Less in number but OMG I struggled to not do something really stupid.
I think it is okay to think about it and process it. when I ignore these kinds of impulsive thought they just get worse. Sometimes I write about them, but then I stick the paper in the garbage disposal to take its magic away. Sometimes it actually works.
I will add the compulsive thought to stick my hand in there too tends to follow the paper down there. I like to fiddle with the little metal things when it is off. They feel really neat and it helps to calm the intensity.
fuck that sound insane.
NO that does not sound insane. I work with a lot of sharp things like razors and a very large saw with two circular blades. I had to change the blades a while back and my boss caught me rubbing my hand around the teeth with my eyes closed (It feels nice), & she looked at me like I was mental, so I get it.
Good idea about taking away the magic power its developed.
Thanks heaps
YW.
