TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

I don't have a lot of upswings. I just have days/moments that I can tolerate.
Sometimes in those moments I actually don't hate myself.

In that case you have my sympathy, for whatever the fuck that's worth. I can live with down because I have wings. Depression is just the price I pay. Without the mania I'd feel pretty fucking hard done by.

Writing this was kind of therapeutic.

It usually is.  I'm definitely more manic, but I also have my days.

Writing can definitely be an excellent outlet. I'd love to see you write more, Squiddy, I always like reading it.

Nice one. Pretty much sums up the downswing. How about the good part? The mania. Do you enjoy yours or are you one of those poor bastards who gets wired-stressed and nothing much else? I've gotten in a habit of letting myself swing way up at weekends. Not all the way to full-blown psychosis but just enough get those feelings of superhuman riot animal, then I crash a bit on monday and hate my life til friday rolls around again.

The "mania" is just pre-load material for the regret and self-loathing. You do stupid shit while you're stupid-happy that makes you want to kill yourself later.

I'm getting the feeling BiPolar and Borderline are the same fucking thing only one is a chemical affliction and the other, apparently, makes me a permanent fuckup.

Bipolar is very different from Borderline, but people with Borderline can certainly also suffer from Bipolar Disorder.

That's just it. I don't think I *am* BiPolar. I definitely have periods of high-low-regret though.

I don't think I fit in a box. Asperger's, ADD, Borderline...they all fit and none of them do.

But this is about Squiddy. I was just trying to connect and show empathy, not whine about me. Sorry 'bout that.

Nothing fits perfectly, because people are all individual. The diagnoses are guidelines, not uniforms.
