  • Oh FFS…

    Woman man or modern monkeyJust another happy junkieFifty poundsPress my buttonGoing down Trigger warning: Lets go with drug abuse and see how that goes. I think my wife summed it up pretty well with the statement “You have hit a new low”. I have a grinder. I imagine it is pretty effective with weed but…

  • Howdy

    SO I havent resorted to drinking yet which is always a plus. I had another wobble. These past few months have been relentless with them. I know I’m supposed to realise that wobbles happen, you execute the care plan and then it stops before flairing up again. Some days great, other days irrational thoughts overload!…

  • Hello

    So it happened again. I fell off the face of the earth again but alas I have now returned. I’ve not done a post recently as I’ve been busy sorting out my mental health stuff which was overdue a collapse. Life has been ticking along. Kids are now in school again and life is starting…

  • Why does my brain do this?

    I’m angry. Frustrated and demotivated to the point of throwing in the towel. Not with my day to day life but my work life. I overheard a group of people at the job centre say “He can’t be that bad if he’s self-employed” amongst other things which are on my records. I was sat on…

  • Mum and Dad

    So today was the day Dad died a couple of years ago. Mum died a few years before Dad on 24th August 2014. Dad had dementia and we looked after him after Mum died from lung cancer. As you’ve come to expect from me I have mixed feelings with them both. I thought it only…

  • Camping

    We escaped the house and fled to Sherwood Forrest, where the legend of Robin Hood resides. When we got there (eventually after a 2 hour traffic jam) we pitched in the rain whilst the kids stayed in the car playing on phones. We got soaked. Everything but we managed to get everything setup and changed…

  • Random memes

    Just a few photos that have made the grade and made me smile. Had a great time today at the beach. I think we were only there for an hour but Nina came in the water with me and did really well. Didn’t want to push her to swim due to the fit thing. Figured…

  • Squirm

    So S is at home with me at the moment as her bubble burst at school for the second time this year. Its a bit sad because this was her last week in Primary School before heading to High School in September. So she is doing classes online since Monday and I’ve been working from…

  • Random QOTD

    What’s something you wish you’d figured out sooner? That there is much more to life than just doing what is expected of you by society. For example, you go to school, high school, college and then university. Now I wouldn’t change going to university as I made life long friends there and had certain experiences…

  • Escaped!

    The meeting with the consultant went really well. They didn’t section me so I’m so thankful for that as I was so scared of missing B’s communion. They are altering the meds slightly and giving me a new care plan. Fingers crossed that will help get me out of this funk or at least let…
