Rainy Island- A Emotional State

Posted by Bruce - in Blog - No Comments

It’s as if I’m on my island and storm clouds are all around me. Then the rain occurs and I feel as I’m drowning  unable to move any further. As I clasp unto any branch to lift me up only to see them break time and after time isolation builds. The worst part is when the island suddenly becomes crowded and then everyone departs leaving me alone to phase another cycle of pain. At this point I’ll do almost anything to get off this island even if the next storm leaves me grasping no more.

FOOTNOTE-  The pain of not being connected to some type of community can appear to be to difficult for one to bear yet there is one who always there that feels your pain. Just open your heart, mind and soul to the one who’s been there from the start.

Line Of Sanity-PLEASE SHARE

Posted by Bruce - in Blog - No Comments

There often appears to be a thin line between insanity and sanity especially to those who are suffering from mental health conditions. This is because those that are sick truly don’t understand what is occurring in their head.  It might seem odd to those that do not have these health issues but ask yourself when did it occur to you that your eye site or hearing got worse. Now add to that the tendency of denial due to the stigma of society and how triggers can make a person feel as if they have a sane reason to act the way they do and you can understand how this line can be blurred.  Here below are some that this line can be more easily seen and hopefully help those that might be suffering.

 

  • Withdrawing from social activities, or other activities that he or she used to enjoy
  • Losing the ability to handle day-to-day responsibilities
  • Expressing strange thoughts or delusional, exaggerated beliefs
  • Excessive nervousness or worry
  • Dramatic shifts in sleeping habits and appetite
  • Sudden and dramatic changes in mood (highs and lows)
  • Bizarre behavior
  • Apathy
  • Problems with memory, concentration, and attention
