There’s nothing funny about bipolar disorder. In fact, one of the ways that I know I’m having a spell of bipolar depression is that my sense of humor flies out the window.

Nothing brings a smile or a laugh — not my husband’s awful jokes. Not my friend Tom’s silly songs. Not a funny movie like “Arsenic” and “Old Lace.” I have been in a spell of depression for a little while now.

As I mentioned recently, part of it may be reactive depression. But here’s the thing. Reactive depression feels the same as bipolar depression.

The Infinite Benefits of Including Students With Disabilities
I was in my daughter’s middle school for a meeting with some of her teachers. As I was walking down a hallway with a few of them they stated, “Look, there is Yassy! She is cycling away. We hear she loves to go in that room and ride the bike for the whole gym class. She is in great shape.”  I looked in the room and there weren’t many other kids in there. It was new, with a glass wall, so I saw her and took this photo. It is blurry because I was trying to be quick, so as not to distract her.

What My Autistic Son Taught Me About Listening and Speaking
For the first five years of my son’s life, he never called me Mama, and he only said a word or two without being prompted. When his doctors would ask, “Where’s your mama?” he’d always point to me. He knew who I was, but if he needed me, he wouldn’t say a word. He’d walk over and slide a tiny finger or two inside of my palm and give my hand a little tug. That was his way of saying, “I need your help. Come with me.” Most often, he’d lead me to the kitchen and point to cookies or open the refrigerator and say “juice” so sweetly that it nearly always made me smile.

Why Many Autistic People Don't Celebrate Autism Awareness Month
April is Autism Awareness Month, but most self-advocates don’t celebrate it. If one is new to the autistic community, one might be surprised by the pushback against these “awareness” efforts. The month-long campaign has a 51-year history. It was launched in April of 1970 by the Autism Society, which was founded by parents of autistic children. Each year, the controversial organization Autism Speaks promotes the month as one of its awareness campaigns, along with April 2, which is World Autism Day. The majority of the people who celebrate Autism Awareness Month happen to be parents and family members.

How Life With Chronic Pain Taught Me to Be More Present
This time last year while the world fell apart, I pulled myself together. As odd as it may seem, I thrived during the pandemic. I knew what it was like to shut down and isolate myself, so things shutting down and quarantining were, in many ways, familiar to me. I knew because I had experienced lows so low you withdraw from people, I would survive being away from people, even though it would be hard. It comforted me to know I would be OK. It also motivated me to be better than OK.

The Universe Hurls Forward No Matter What: When Tragedy Taught Me about Acceptance, Hope and Resilience
Tragedy convinced me that “fair and unfair” are human constructs in the eyes of the universe, a system of values created by our species to help us (hopefully) live our best lives. It is true that our beliefs are not unimportant to us humans but to the infinite universe, I realised that those constructs are as inconsequential as the concept of linear time and of day and night: gradations to help us perceive equilibrium and structure of an infinite order that we would not be able to understand otherwise. The universe continues on regardless of how fair or unfair our lives are.2020 was a hard year for many people in the world: between world catastrophes and personal tragedy, loss was everywhere.

7 Ways to Support Autistics During Autism Awareness Month
It’s Autism Awareness Month and many of us who are on the spectrum tend to dread this time of year. Our voices are often drowned out and we are gaslit by people who say they are advocates who are there to help us. Autism Awareness Month can often be very counterproductive to the autistic community. Awareness can turn into fear-mongering and scare tactics. However, there isn’t anything scary about autism.

What Living With PTSD Taught Me About Anger Management and Accountability
Over 10 years ago, I developed a life-threatening illness that caused an acquired brain injury (ABI), and I was bed-confined and hospitalized for 18 months. During that time, I experienced traumatizing medical interventions, long hours of isolation and pain, and several moments of neglect and abuse at the hands of nurses. By the time I returned to the community, I had developed PTSD. I experienced many of the common symptoms and behaviors of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), but the most disturbing of them all was the sudden, explosive rage. Sometimes it would be directed at myself or inanimate objects, but most often it was directed at another person.

What My Conversation With My Partner Taught Me About Bipolar Disorder
Buddhism teaches Four Noble Truths: There is suffering, a cause of suffering, an end to suffering, and a path to the end of suffering. If unchecked, bipolar disorder causes those I love, including myself, to suffer. Suffering ends when I surrender, talk about it and ask for help. The path to the end of suffering is a roadmap of self-care and compassion for myself and others. It’s a path from a land of chaos to a more balanced, aware and spacious open field, and I’m grateful that now my partner is on the path with me.

I have type II bipolar disorder. I was diagnosed about five years ago now. I have never really had a problem talking about my mental health or my chronic illnesses, even with strangers. However, I very rarely tell people the conditions I have immediately, and when I do tell them they are always surprised. These are people I have worked with or gone to school with for months and sometimes years; they know me, my work ethic and style, and my intelligence level. It then somehow turns into:

Why the Weather Isn’t Bipolar (but It Is Erratic and Unpredictable)
Many of us around the country have been experiencing drastic weather and temperature changes over the past month. While it may be more extreme lately versus recent years past, it isn’t abnormal to have inconsistent weather patterns during the changing of the seasons. In the Midwest where I’m from, this is pretty standard — 80 degrees and sunny one day, 30 and snowing the next. Sunny cloud-free skies in the morning, tornado warnings come afternoon. Are these episodes erratic? Yes. Are they unpredictable? Also yes. Is it global warming? Likely yes, once again. Is it “bipolar?” Not so much.
