#Rapid Cycling

[thecouncilofidiots]

Our head hurts so fucking bad

We're rapid cycling/switching and blurry as fuck

We had to split a new guy just to get us to bed, and we're still people soup

And honestly? We'd be fine with the blurriness/dissociation, happens all the time for us. As long as we're not catatonic on a bench (again) we count it as a win

But our HEAD HURTS and that's NOT FUN

Our head is not a joint, we're not used to it hurting/being in pain so it's worse than our usual/chronic pain

I was gonna be dramatic and list out all of the ones that hurt to be "xyx? Fine! We can handle it, we do it all the time!" but the list started getting a little too long lmao 🥲

But head hurty! Big blur! 0/10

Bipolar infection, a

swaying of

miracles and omens

over the neck.

Pills are

absorbed and

therapy is swallowed.

It gets easier but

damn

I wish it would

stay a white cloud

instead of

lightning convulsions.

Feeling a lil hypomanic today

Not much but enough to notice

I’m not ‘feeling better’ I’m feeling hypomanic. Huge difference.

OK my episodes are not moon based, they are moon influenced. I had a high the week of February 6th 2021st and I went to check the moon phases and it was a crescent, not full until the 27th. The moon effect is like an overlay on top of an already cycling system. I'm hypomanic right now, but I've been sleeping okay. It was a full moon last night, and I couldn't get to sleep until between 4 and 5, but it didn't cause my episode. If I can go back and cross reference poems, journals, experiences with calendars and moon phases I'll be able to get a clearer picture of this. It's not just hormonal, monthly and moon based. It's cyclic, triggered, sure. But it's also detached and invariably happening. To me, for me, inside of me, influenced by, and despite external happenings. I am at its mercy, and when I am in the middle of either episode I am unaware how long it has been and how long it will last. My blindness is my downfall.

this whole rapid cycling thing is not a vibe

Oh no, looks like my manic cycle is going at it with my depression cycle again...
