More and more, it feels like I’m doing a really bad impersonation of myself.

i hate feeling like i am fighting against myself every second. i hate feeling like i am held together by a string that i have to hold taught or i will fall to pieces. i hate feeling some else that isn’t quite definable loom over me like a specter and momentarily take control. i hate feeling powerless and feeling like there must be something wrong with my will power because i can’t stop...

last night my body shut down and I couldn’t move. It felt like being drugged. my friends finally convinced me to sleep (not at home, i was at a friends house and was too out of it to even go home). I didn’t sleep. I have been alternating between shaking and being stuck in one position physically, and between zoning out and half dreaming and non-stop racing thoughts of the most random...

i feel like if I don’t actively distract myself i will, at the least, break down again, and possibly do something i regret. but then staying up distracting myself is already something to regret.

any other bipolar’s/BPD’s here have dissociation problems?
my psych thinks a lot of the dissociation is due to permanently altered brain/thought paterns because of fucked up mood stuff/manic thought cycles. Or something

It really unnerves me when I see all these posts on my dash about how “cool” and “inspiring” it would be if people didn’t obsesses over time so much. I would love to have any basic grasp of the time passing so I didn’t constantly get startled by it being 5 hours later…
I sometimes wonder if I am missing a fundamental part of human existence because I...

Anonymous asked: Have you read "Radical Constructivism" by von Glasersfeld? His work parallels Hofstadter's in eerie ways, going into the cognitive science and cybernetics of subjective reality.

Things that have happened in the past 48 hours
Sudden suicidal depression from no where. Thankfully, because it came out of nowhere and fast, I was just shocked, confused, and it didn’t infect my logic before I knocked it down to a “wouldn’t it be nice not to be alive,” passive wish kind of depression that came out of no where.
Woke up (at 8pm after sleeping all day, as I have been doing) and was unable to will myself...

I’ve been alone in my head for the majority of the starting this summer.
Here is what I have noticed:
I am wasting more time - more specifically, I find myself totally engaged in non-productive, off topic tasks, often mentally unable to stop. Sometimes, I know full well that I should stop, sometimes, I don’t even like what I am...

My friends say things like “omg, I can’t get off tumblr, lol”
and it’s 7:40am
And I’m like, guys, sometimes I actually CAN’T get off tumblr. Like for some reason, I just keep scrolling, and clicking and I am not fully in control and I have no idea who or what is, but I know I need to sleep, need to get off tumblr, but I can’t. And I zone out and...

TRIGGER WARNING on dissociation.
I couldn’t get through more than a couple questions. This hit far to close to home, even it my case isn’t exactly the same. I’ve never thought about things in these words, and I am going to try to push through it bit by bit, because parts of it were incredibly accurate to how I feel. It’s actually something I’ve been thinking about...

Can anyone help me out with this?
not sure what to do. not sure what is going on. no sure how to say it. my ability to track time is reaching an all time low. It just keeps slipping by and keeping on top of what has happened and what I have to do is becoming overwhelming. Its like I can’t be fully aware of both at the same time. I am aware to some extent, I think, most if not all of the time, but I can’t force...
