My mania is the only time I feel like I can function. I stay up for days until I crash out. I know this is a horrible coping mechanism.
I know I need to sleep at night, but to be asked "why don't you just go to sleep like a normal person?" from my own father just confirms that some people just don't get it. It's not that they don't care but they actually don't understand it.
I would lay it out on a platter π½οΈ if I could but my mental health is a LOT for me. I never want to put my burden on someone else's shoulders. I just wish they'd take the time to educate themselves and learn.. attempt to understand what my brain goes through daily. It never shuts down. I never get a mental break. I'm handcuffed and stuck in a spinning delusion of life.
