It's Okay Not To Be Around Normies

The mercifully brief depressive episode has been replaced by a slightly irritable, energetic elevation. It’s all or nothing with me, though I do try to find the middle ground.

Many people believe that gifted people feel special and better than others.
I feel and have felt like a miserable piece of shit most of the time, I perceive life in this world as a cruel punishment, I find it very difficult to relate to people and I only have peace when I am alone and isolated from the world or when I meditate for long hours.
So no, I don't feel as great as people think. The only thing special is my existential depression.

@actuallyautistic
In a few days, I'll be 62, and I have an almost ritualistic custom every year when I complete another orbit around the sun. I consider "New Year's" to be the day one was born. The world began that day; that day was the "Big Bang," the origin of this universe that I am.
Taking stock of my current situation and circumstances, I consider my needs and my vision of life at this moment and I intend to live according to that configuration, which changes every decade, every year, every month, and every day.
This time, I thought it might be interesting to share some of that with the autistic people I come in contact with here, just to share the experience and hope it might be of some use to others. After all, the experiences others have shared online have helped me understand who I am.

“You've seen my descent, now watch my rising.”

― Rumi

In the darkness of pain,
whether physical or emotional,
you feel alone,
abandoned by a world
that should be helping you.
The only way out of the gloom
is to keep fighting

I have a love-hate relationship with springtime.
I love the warmer temperatures,
vibrant flowers,
and the light green leaves bursting open on the trees.
On the flip side,
I hate the allergies,
insomnia,
and mania that also come with it.
Here's how I cope.

I have a mood disorder. What that means is I have issues regulating my emotions.

Let me let you in on a secret. It fucking sucks MOST of the time.

So on those rare occasions my #bipolar has me feeling amazing I refuse to feel guilty while I enjoy it.

Its my fucking silver lining. Just keep my credit card away from me.

If you find yourself in that dark place please know you are loved and help is available. You deserve to feel better and you are NOT alone in that pain.

Is There Any Hope, Or Compassion Left In This World?

I am a #disabled man living in #poverty, my #disability is 60% physical and 40% mental, and as I get older, both of those are increasingly hard to deal with, each day I try to do what I can where I live, as part of my rent is to help out when and as I can, but that is getting harder and harder to do, I am spent, between losing what little strength and physical ability I have left and not getting decent sleep nor having a decent diet, things just keep getting harder, and that causes my #anxiety to get worse which causes my #bipolar to cycle, which causes more lack of sleep, and I am in constant pain, and on and on it goes, Today is March 22nd my 47th #birthday, and I sure wish by the grace of God, somehow people help me #fundraise $5million dollars so that I can buy my own property and build my forever home, and have everything I need to never have to worry again, and to alleviate the stress of my day to day situation, and so I can really just age at a pace that wont effect anyone or anything, because in my own home, if I cant or dont feel like it I dont have to do anything for days, weeks, or months at a time and no one can get mad at me. People seem to forget that I am disabled and they dont realize I am getting older, nor do they comprehend that I simply cant afford #food to eat 3 meals a day, often not even one meal a day, that I have no #healthcare, people in general expect me to just keep going like the energizer bunny, when the reality is I am an old broke down ford truck, that on occasion I can get fired up and get a few things done, but more often than not, I really dont have the gas to even stand up. $5-10-15 It All Helps, via #cashapp at $woctxphotog or via #paypal at paypal.com/donate?campaign_id=…

Some days it just feels like no one loves you or cares what happens to you.

I know its my #bipolar #depression but It certainly feels real.

5 years on my semi-autobiograhical work. 1 award. Glowing reviews. O sales. Devastated, but never beaten. I run 10k a day to keep ahead of my dark thoughts and the black dog. #TheDrowners #BiPolar #MentalHealth #writing #Depression #WritersLife #Fighting #Books #WritingCommmunity #NeverQuit

I JUST FEEL SO GOOD GUYZ!

You are worth the love shown to you. You are worth the self care. Give yourself some grace.
