a color bomb
went off in my living room painting my mood — as I talked to God on the ledge and no one was there I was a social butterfly fearless and fun — but reckless with my life dragging my kids along for a rollercoaster ride shopping was fun paying with monopoly cash— at the 100 Dollar Store
or the book heaven Barnes & Noble sleep was not for me 3 hours was enough to charge my crazy mind— as I Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest as high as a kite  |
- An account of what is like to have a manic episode
- Delirium is a charter inthe Sandman comic book, DC Comics, written by Neil Gaiman
- National suicide prevention hotline. 1-800-273-TALK
- Suicide crisis line. 988
- What used to be called "Manic Depression" is now called 'Bipolar disorder' and is a mental health condition defined by periods (or episodes) of extreme high and low moods that affect thoughts and behavior. With the right medication, people with bipolar can live normal lives. Estimates suggest that around 4.4% of U.S. adults will have bipolar disorder at some point in their lives.
Monopoly cash is used to play a game. People with manic episodes use money as if it is worthless paper.
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest is a 1975 American psychological drama film[directed by Milos Forman, based on the 1962 novel of the same name by Ken Kesey. The film stars Jack Nicholson who plays a new patient at a mental institution click here for more information
The 100 Dollar Store = is inspired by the One Dollar Store, a thrifty store where everything is a dollar or less. During my manic episodes, I would spend 100 dollars at a time.
Tanka is a Japanese unrhymed poem having about 12 to 31 syllables usually arranged in five lines and read in about two breaths in length when read aloud. The first poets who wrote tanka imitated the Japanese models of a 5-7-5-7-7 syllabic structure in five lines. This resulted in poems that were too long in comparison to Japanese tanka. The first tanka were padded or chopped to meet the fixed number of syllables. Additionally, the third line must transition from the descriptive and image-focused beginning lines into a reflective metaphor, simile, or personification for the closing lines. The subject matter varies, but most tanka are emotionally stirring or profound, and many are about love. click here if you want to read modern tanka examples === click here to read Tanka Society of America === click here if you want to read modern tanka rules
