Oh and it was not my mind playing tricks on me...it was a baby mouse cause killer cat trapped it and is eating it.
Murphy do you have facebook and if you do do I have you as a friend?
I will msg you my name.
Ah gottcha Soss glad to see you arent exaggerating their size any more *giggles*
Good lord are you watching Private Practice now they want to turn off machine on someone. . . here comes another whole set of tears
Today I had an eye exam and I was with my dad and I was filling out the form and where it said "psychiatric" I Xed yes and wrote "bipolar, anxiety, OCD." then my dad tells me that I'm not bipolar, and that my pdoc told him I wasn't bipolar, but I asked my pdoc a while ago because he tended to waffle and he said I had bipolar disorder NOS. Then he said I don't need to "wear it like a badge" and "it's just an eye exam" and told me not to write my new medication down. So I didn't and tried not to freak out in the office and the eye doctor ended up asking me and I ended up telling him anyway. Then he referred me to a "retinal specialist" because I've been seeing black spots and white streaks of light in front of my eyes for a few weeks now and he said that there was a possibility that my retina could be detaching, and when I told my dad, he just said "Oh, I thought that stopped" because I just stopped talking to him about it, then proceeds to tell me that my retina is NOT detaching because he KNOWS people with detached retinas.
Ok, just needed to get that out. Happy nicotine time and back to your usually scheduled Amanda.
big bowl of ice cream- check
loads of tissues- check
my night has been successful.
Raven i havent started that one yet..don't know though if I can handle it or not...
Amanda thats terrible and you can make any post here you want hun its all ours . . .but who is watching you?
OK Murphy is gonna do the FB page but if anyone would be willing to Co edit with her I am sure she would be appreciative of the help
Okay will have to watch private tomorrow...KY is playing
I just feel like my dad basically feels, "Ok, we've indulged her enough in this 'bipolar' thing, now it's time for her to stop." I just hope for his sake nothing serious happens again to me. Oh wait, that would just be me trying to get attention.
And he always knows someone who's experiencing things I might have. High iron? Oh, your mom has that, and she's fine. Acid reflux? Both of us have that--take your meds and shut up.
Thanks so much guys, for being there for me. I'm just having a rough night and I don't feel like anyone in my real life is willing to hear any more from me. I really hope my retina's not detaching too.
