“These people died for me”
It’s important to keep in mind that the treatment success rate for bipolar disorder is 80%. You’ve done the hardest part, which is seeking help.
“regarded with glee by some and passionate revulsion by others.” - sort of how possums have become thing in recent years? At least in my city.
Oh lord—please know that there is a complete stranger in this world that is thinking of you and hopes you will stay strong. Hold onto what you can, remember that you have people you love waiting for you and there will be many more lattes in your future.
More than entitled to “whine”-this situation has been HARD and you’re doing the right thing for yourself and your family by accessing the supports you need. Best wishes.
It’s not a whine—it’s a perfectly understandable unloading of what sounds like a rotten week. You’ve done the healthy thing to find outlets like Saturday Night Social— it shows that you already know how to treat yourself well. I hope you’re back with your family soon.
Life is hard enough without restraining justified whining. I hope you get better soon!
It sounds like you are entitled to whine.
Whine away, that’s rough. I hope that things sort themselves out for you soon.
To be clear, Prime Minister Scott Morrison is an absolute moron and an awful man. His party (named the Liberals, but in Australia that’s our major conservative party) are constantly looking to find ways to reduce support to anyone other than the wealthy and large corporates, who get handouts by the barrel. He’s also a…
It’s on par with employers asking and being proud of their employees who donate sick leave to other employees who don’t have any but need it.

Healthcare corporations were too busy overcharging patients and paying their executives big bonuses to plan for disaster and buy face masks, so you proles better get out there and hand a craft store a handful of cash so you can make masks to give…
The masks are this generation’s Duck and Cover. They may help a little, but mostly they’re a way to let you think you have control in a situation where you absolutely do not have control.
In America, celebrities are treated as experts on all topics. Thats why we have a celebrity as president of the country. Its fucking stupid.
Hulu needs to do us a favor and release this early to help us with the quarantine blues.* It looks delightful and I love Elle Fanning.
He doesn’t just have the burden of chronic mental illness, but also Crohn’s Disease. If you’ve never known anyone who suffered this debilitation, I can’t even begin to describe the physical misery. Now add in a high-profile job in the public eye, along with a famous fling, and there you have the target of unkind…
Except for Megan Reynolds’s recent review of his standup program on Netflix, Jezebel’s treatment of Pete Davidson reminds me of how a lot of the media (mostly tabloids and paparazzi, I suppose) harassed Britney Spears in the 2000s. Since she barely survived being stalked, hounded, goaded, baited and violated by creeps…
Are all of Jezebel’s movie reviews just contrarian for the sake of being contrarian now? I thought this movie was great and so succinctly displayed the trauma and terror of an abusive relationship. I recommend it.
My Daughter: Yeah, one of the girl’s father is living with us now.
NXVIM has to be the most bizarre thing I’ve heard.
