Tk asks: >Do you feel >embarrassed about your sleeping habits…? To me it doesn’t sound strange at
all. I was feeling in need of emotional support. I felt i dare not bring up manic depression or my use of meds. I did not feel strong enough to defend myself. I was anticipating questions like are you sure this isnt situational? They have never said pick yourself up by the bootstraps in those exact words, but that message rings loud and clear. The message do for yourself. You are weak, you are less for seeking help. Are you sure you are getting help? I was feeling like the title of this thread not quite mad jello but mushy jello. Maybe a bit mad, but more of angry jello. I didnt want to explode. Yes, i was feeling embarrassed about being bipolar. Afraid to be asked to defend the fact that i am truly bipolar. When in truth, i do not want to be bipolar and i do not wish to defend my right to be one. >What IS a kazoo?? :))))

Only on really hot days does Ricardo MadGello resemble KoolAid. Especially after a hit of window pane.
i love that nick. getting the jello jiggler shakes from meds.(tarkive dys…) it is funny if you think, who could really be afraid of crazy jello man, thinking along the lines of the stay puff marshmallow man. I can picture him trying to frighten someone saying brrrrrr and shaking all over. How could you not smile? Hmmmm, you could see right through him and one might wonder if kool-aide man was coming next. Imagine~~~*

I’ve always needed at least 8 hours sleep every night. When I am like I’m now, or when I’m very very depressed I can easily sleep 10-12 hours… ( Also I tend to turn my day rythm around and stay up until 6-7-8 am before falling in a comatic sleep, and then not getting up until most of the day is done… It’s not nice… ( No you’re not alone. Most of us have trouble with sleep in some sort or other – some of us can’t fall asleep or can’t get to bed, some of us need to sleep so much it becomes a problem, some of us just can’t seem to get to bed until it’s morning and then sleep away the days etc etc… Does your family know about your condition and your meds? Do you feel embarrassed about your sleeping habits…? To me it doesn’t sound strange at all that you should need more sleep when your situation changes, when you go away, stay outdoors a lot, probably move around a lot more, more meds, more fresh air, probably more stuff happening around you than usually. It’s not strange at all that you should need a little more sleep. I hope you enjoyed the weekend even though it bothered you that your family took such an interest in your sleeping patterns… Could you talk to them about it maybe..? > Thanks for wishing me sunshine….. i think i got a bit of > extra sunshine from sleeping poolside–ouch.

*lol* sorry for laughing I just picture you with that eager sparkling kids eyes, happily liting the frog ) Sorry it ended up costing you a fine… Hope it was really really pretty Shimmering thoughts, TK

Hey TK, Sorry to hear you had a few rough days. I really hope you get some rest and recovery. Sounds like you havent been sleeping alot. I sure hope you are making up for it now. I went camping over the holiday. Although it was a break, i got a bit of notice from my sister and rest family about how much i slept. Actually it was criticism and concern. All the fresh air, meds -ugh, a bit of extras…made me tired. It was such a big deal to my family my sleeping schedule. It was refreshing to read that so many of you slept til five in the afternoon on a day here or there. Or reading that the depakote makes you tired or sleep more. I know i am not alone. Thanks for wishing me sunshine….. i think i got a bit of extra sunshine from sleeping poolside–ouch. no problem on postphoning the rehearsal…i am busy unpacking and catching up. Besides I want to practice my kazoo. I wrote>> I am off for the weekend…..Enjoy Independence Day Weekend fellow >Americans > Beepers…the rest of you light a sparkler for us. >Hope you had a great weekend – welcome back >Hugs, >TK
I lit a sparkler last night as i gained my second wind… got caught up on my sleep. I sat by the campfire. I let visiting kids light the rest of my sparklers…then i saw this firework frog in my daughter’s bag. I thought it was a big sparkler. The label said emits a shower of sparks…run and take cover after lighting. I really didn’t notice the latter part of the message. I was intent on lighting it. Oh fancy sparkler, i thought. Everyone warned me a one hundred dollar fine. Security was there before the frog stopped sparkling. I usually have better luck than that. Imagine That~~~*

{{{{{imagine}}}}} I’m glad you appreciated it – yeah we all need some hugs and friendly faces from time to time, I’ve had a really rough couple of days myself now (that’s why I haven’t replied to this until now) and friends and friendlies made the major difference for me.. I hope you’re doing okay – wishing you
