So i just admitted to myself that i am bipolar(probably mixed episode)...have been for years, but didn't know it. I was sorta diagnosed about 6 months ago and given medication (lamictal, lexapro and hydroxyz HCl), which was effective until i stopped taking the medication due to stigmas and the fact that i found the answers i'd been looking for, after i destroyed my life...really destroyed my life...and didn't see the point in working my butt ...

What horrible, shameful feelings I have cuz because of rumours which were started by the ignorant few who misunderstood my mental illness problems, things I did and said, which were merely offensive, maybe hurtful ( like a journal of mine expressing my pain; my past ) which was unfortunately found !! and then ......I;m reviled and shunned by them because they know not what pain I was going through.They took it personally.

We're moving to a new dedicated server this weekend so there will be disruptions. I think that the worst will just be a brief period where no-one can post (i.e. the website will virtually be 'read-only').

It started about when I was 4-years-old when I had my first erection that I remember. It was when I was watching a T.V. show some time after I had wet my pants (my ...

Hey guys. Before I write the following, I just want to state for the record that I asked my ex if it was okay with him to post the latest correspondence between us here for input and perspective from all out there who may be willing to add their 2 cents worth.
