Serious How has your mental health been?

[Jenny]

hes not violent and he doesnt need a life time banishment to the rubber room. he just needs to have his meds adjusted and then observed to see if its the right concoction. he also needs to talk with someone. vent his problems and helo get them sorted and prioritized. because like i mentioned. hes a highly (or was and should be again) functioning skitzo. he just needs to be on his meds religiously. thats it in a nutshell basically.
sorry to hear about your bro. but sometimes i think people who are way out there and meds dont really help,are better off dead. its like theres no hope left for them. especially after they dont recognize you anymore. its a double edge sword too. the meds they are on arent all that great for the brain either. they can make one zombified till they wear off. then all the concoctions thats been given to them over time,to find the right one doesnt do any brainial favors either. it comes to a point that they become a zombie anyway. what kind of life is that? at least a gold fish has a reflex when you tap the tank.

Thank you. I'm glad your brother has you to advocate for him, that's something you didn't mention that he needs to have in place & keep too hopefully. If you're his only sibling or relative that is his advocate you may want to introduce him to another so he doesn't ever get lost in the system. Just as a precaution. 🙂
He sounds like he just needs to realize what you do & hopefully, he can do it but, he'll still always need a support network of people who are familiar with him in particular.
You mentioned not being able to recognize & remember people, my bro said when I was 5 years old he didn't remember me. He hadn't been diagnosed yet then. That was when I was 7-ish. He said that again though when I was 12 and other times too when we were both older. He had a step brother on his mom's side that I had only barely met when I was in 1st or 2nd grade that I think had similar diagnoses but couldn't remember me when we met again when I was 16. Literally, zero recollection. That must be a symptom of it even before. Back in the 70s the doctors described it to me as him being in a fugue state when he can't recognize me. I was still a kid so I often had no clue what the adults were talking about. 🤷🏼‍♀️

i looked into conservatorship. but the state makes it harder than it needs to be to do this. and fees up the ying-yang too! then theres hiring a laywer just the same. all said and done,it could run up to 5 grand. and theres no guarantees i would even get it. chances are nil,ive been reading and seeing on vida. its almost impossible. and its lengthy and overwhelming too (as ive read). also... if its denied,all that money went down the drain. theres no refunds.
sure theres programs out there to help,but thats just more hoops to jump thru. our mental health system is shit and broke. and from what ive read and heard,trump/doge, also hit the mental health system when they cutting all kinds of things. thus making it harder to get help. not putting full blame on trump,but on reagan. hes the one who started fucking with it. then every pres after that chipped away at it. leaving out current one to keep up the tradition of it. and also the state governors following suit too. Arizona,for instance is rated at a D- for mental health. with a governor not too long ago,who cut millions in her first year. then cut millions again on her way out of office. heres the kicker... her son is in the same predicament with needing care. as im sure he got his because of who his mother is. but fuck everyone else and their kid,right?

I do not know if this is already a thread, but I could not find it, if there was.

I am just genuinely curious on how all of the people in this community deal with their mental health. I have always been interested on how people deal with their problems.

For me, anyways, not getting too specific, but honestly, Goregrish has almost been a way where I can have my mind distracted. That has been a good way of me keeping my mind in check. The community is always entertaining and the videos do have the shock value to just keep your eyes non stop focused on the screen.

Of course I have other ways to deal with mine, but I am more waiting on see if this gets approved since this is my first thread on here. If you cannot tell, I am very much of an idiot that is 90% of the time not even sober enough to walk.

Maybe we can have some serious discussions below. I would love to see if anyone can relate to me, let alone if this turns into a little miniature therapy session, haha.

Completely, fucked... OR AS I LIKE TO SAY "SNAFU" (SITUATION NORMAL ALL FUCKED UP) 😬

Why do you feel you have a mental health problem? Maybe your just not like the rest of the robots in the world( other humans) I feel gore and chaos are what makes me feel more at ease especially when I have anxiety.. If you were to ask me it's a good think that you are self aware of what keeps your brain interested, sometimes we're our worst enemy and start comparing symptoms of some mental health commercial and questions if one self has that health condition... Smh

 

[Psychodad]

My dog has no nose

[Fag man]

some people say i am mentally not there. but whatever. i like to think i have sight depression but it's getting better

 

[SearCutFAL]

I'm fine,
Money in the Bank, Gas in the Tank ... but

My niece lives with us,
Borderline Personality Disordered, unalloyed liar and Tedious to deal with.
If she wasn't related, she would go missing.
Nice house, plenty of food and paying for her education.
Even so, she's run away 12 fucking times. Then, wherever she ends up,
she runs away from there too.

[Grand Mal Caesar]

I don't deal with my mental health. Other people do.

 

[likedollseyes]

Except for the crippling addiction to benzos, the rising cost of marijuana , a complete lack of trust in people, gallows humor that has gotten me written up twice at work because people can't take a fucking joke, the impending doom of global war breaking out, worrying about what fresh hell with be breaking news in the morning, the onslaught of perimenopause, and worrying how I'm going to afford the fucking holidays, I'm right as rain!

 

[Pavonia7]

I've always been a bit unstable. People know it but I don't care.
