Welcome to Blooming Psycho's Funhouse. I will blog about whatever, probably mostly about psych issues. I do have some psych training and as I have been more mentally stable (generally speaking) in the past six years following my diagnosis with bipolar disorder, I will probably seek more training at some point. It's kinda hard to teach an old dog new tricks and I am trying to create some stability in my life.
I choose the anonymity of a "handle" or pseudonym for several reasons. Of course having bipolar disorder, I am paranoid to a degree, but you aren't paranoid if they really are out to get you, and there have been cases of people losing their jobs due to their online activities. Well, you won't see pictures of my boobs or ass splattered around the internet, and believe me, you are very glad about this. I am neither young nor "hawwwwt." What you see is what you get, and what you get is a grouchy middle aged fat broad. So for anyone who was intending to insult me by saying "you old fat bitch," my reply would be "yeah, and?"
However, even though I'm not Girls Gone Wild material (or even Old Fat Broads Gone Wild material) I would have reason to worry that perhaps my opinions might get me in deep doo doo with my employers. They are a Christian organization and I am not a Christian. I don't have a problem with Christ, I have a problem with the churches that use his name. I don't like organized religion. Jesus is good by me, though, I like the guy. So if you are an open-minded Christian, please feel free to speak your piece. I'm not going to attack you. If you are here to convert me, move along. My handbasket is already fully stocked with snacks and my favorite "devil" music and I'm ready for my journey!
There is also continued prejudice against people with mental illness in this day and age and while it is technically illegal to fire someone for having a mental illness, that would not be the reason I would be fired. My direct supervisor is aware of my illness. The president of the organization is not. And I intend to keep it that way for my own protection.
I will blog about my own thoughts and feelings regarding my life, and about real-world events. You are free to disagree but if you are an asshole about it, you will simply be shuffled away to the trash. Troll and Trash both start with the letter T. This may or may not be a cosmic revelation. I'm leaning towards cosmic revelation, myself. Troll opinions are trash and people who go around trying to stir shit up because they are petty little nobodies that feel bad about being petty little nobodies are trash. So, Troll = Trash. Sometimes the Universe is just chock full of obvious revelations. Other times you sit there screaming FUCKING GIVE ME A SIGN and you can depend on the delivery being held up at the pass. That's just how shit works. Don't ask me why.
But don't be scared. My bark is generally worse than my bite. If you find something appealing about what I'm dishing out, feel free to speak your piece.
xoxo,
PSYCHO
