I’m a sensitive person. I was bullied in my first high school and it only made me take insults all the harder. I got through it somehow but I didn’t come out a stronger person, I came out a mentally ill person. It is not true, in my case, that what doesn’t kill us makes [...]

A true story

Apologies it’s a bit long, I got a carried away! When we met I didn’t want you, and yet you persevered. You fought your corner for me til my opinion veered. Soon the tables turned, and I found myself in love, Head over heels for you, you fit me like a glove. We did everything [...]

Silent Sunday
On Mental Illness and Love

V-day has been and gone and it had me, in my singledom, pondering whether it’s more difficult to find and keep love when you’re mentally ill. I appreciate that love is pretty difficult to come by under any circumstances, it’s one of those things that requires a lot of luck on your part to appear [...]

So since I’ve settled in in France I’ve started up a little business so that I can work from home and earn a bit of cash and not be entirely useless, and this is good. Or it was. Because now it’s getting serious, now work is coming in and reality is hitting home and panic [...]

Why I want to try an open relationship

So far in my life I’ve had just monogamous relationships, it’s just happened that way and that’s with that being the norm’ in society I suppose that’s how it usually happens for most people.

Love vs Mental Health

The shaking. The knocking back beta blockers and rescue remedy to quell the terror rising up from within. Then there [...]

A belated message

I was clearing out my draft posts last night and discovered this one. Untitled. It sat, staring at me, dredging up all the hell I went through, all the pain. Sadly it’s pain that I’m currently reliving, but we wont get into that just yet! So I thought I’d share, because that’s what I do, [...]

What if I die without knowing true love?

I accepted a while ago that it’s doubtful I’ll make it to a ripe old age, and to be honest I don’t think I’d want to be the little old lady living with anxiety, depression and borderline personality disorder. It’s one thing to be a young(ish) person with it, an adult even, but the crazy [...]

Love and Marriage

Mrs TeePot October 5, 2010

Go together like a horse and carriage, or so we are led to believe, but only after you turn 30 apparently. This morning I was watching the news and tweeted my horror that the age of women getting married has risen to 30 from 22, this prompted a very interesting debate from people of all [...]
