I am sick of dealing with chemically imbalanced people!
I have had enough insane phone calls from mad people this week that I feel compelled to cuss!
PEOPLE:
If you are: a bit prone to depression, a bit bipolar, find you’re a bit more angry than anyone else you know or emotionally numb when sober. Then please sort it the fuck out! You owe it to your mates, fellow man, woman and loved ones to be emotionally and chemically aware of yourself!
Not eating and then going out. Getting completely smashed off sniff and cider and then putting yourself in a K hole at 4am on a Friday morning before the weekend has even started is
NOT ok.
Spending the following week randomly hating on everything and everybody, having uncontrollable outbursts of rage, followed by tears and threats of self harm and suicide is also
NOT ok.
Also, turning up unannounced at your mans/woman’s/ex’s/bit of ting’s house at 5am on a Monday, tipsy and loved up making speeches about how much you want to “do the right thing” and how you try so hard, having sex with them and then being too confused, embarrassed and scared to look them in the eye the next day, is guess what?
NOT FUCKING OK!!
I have put years of work into becoming aware of myself, my hormones and how they affect me. It’s something I have to do constantly every day in order to function on a level that is sane.
Everybody has bad days, but I find my bad days are so much better if I know why they are bad. If I’m low on sugar, I haven’t eaten enough, I’m lacking vitamin D, I forgot to do my exercises in the morning, I didn’t get enough sleep last night or I haven’t drunk enough water.
These are all reasonable reasons why I might feel bad. And knowing what they are is great because not only can they be fixed but I can also go easy and laow myself for being a bit upset or angry. It also means I can communicate because I know what’s going on;
“Sorry for being a bit snappy I didn’t get my Weetabix this morning.”
or
“I’ve been feeling quite sensitive this week because I took a shit load of MDMA on Saturday.”
I can even choose to avoid situations completely that I might find hard to handle. And then just deal with things a different way on a different day.
Not being aware of this shit is stupid and dangerous to everyone around you. But especially to yourself. After all, you have to live with yourself. You can’t opt out or take a holiday. You can try to ignore yourself but then thats how this shit stared in the first place.
Going out and having a laugh is good. Drinking to be merry is fun. Certain Drugs with a happy attitude is nice. But abuse and misuse is not cool.
If you feel fucked up, angry and sad, don’t down a bottle of vodka and get in a fight. Have a cup of tea and watch a Spielberg movie. Or eat something and go to bed!
Food is massively important.
If I eat fast food I feel shit mentally and physically. If I eat fruit, veg and home cooked niceness I feel fucking amazing. I still like the occasional Whopper with cheese but I gotta have good food on either side of it so I don’t get all sad and negative.
Being chemically and emotionally unbalanced is hard enough. Do your self a massive favour and get clued up about how your body and mind works.
I write this from my own experience of being a nob.
I know it’s hard and long and sounds boring. But it’s well worth it. And then you can stop pissing everyone off and be cool, happy and fun to be around- nice eh?
If not, fuck off and don’t phone me.
Peace.
~note to parents~
Being a parent this is even more important as I want to be emotionally stable for my child. At the moment he is still only a baby,
BUT do not be fooled by the smallness as this time is crucial.
Children, baby’s especially, are emotional sponges. I firmly believe that the more chilled out and relaxed I am, the more he will be. Plus when he does cry about something, or even more distressing when he cries about nothing, I can cope without having an emotional breakdown. I may not be able to think or hear, but I can cope.
Plus kids need to feel safe not scared and confused.
If we all did this then there might not be so many fucked up people in the world.
Bless.

I might also like to express that most of those who find themselves without having health insurance can be students, self-employed and people who are jobless. More than half in the uninsured are under the age of Thirty-five. They do not feel they are in need of health insurance because they are young as well as healthy. Their own income is frequently spent on homes, food, along with entertainment. Many people that do go to work either full or not professional are not made available insurance via their jobs so they head out without because of the rising price of health insurance in the United States. Thanks for the ideas you discuss through this site.
Hello,
Thank you for your comments. Although I do not see the link between what you’re talking about and what I am writing about I appreciate the interest regardless.
I am from the uk so am not affected by the complications regarding US health insurance. Therefore I do not have the lived experience of such things to be able to have an opinion either way.
Thanks for your interest and time!
