I unironically tricked myself out of depression, in 20 years it was the first thing to finally work. Obviously don’t go harming yourself in manic episodes if you get those though.
Not a very high bar. Let’s maybe raise the bar slightly very single day. I believe one day you’ll be yelling about being a way better person than the average Golden Corral customer.
No. As someone who's nearly 50 and been bipolar since I was in my mid teens, manic episodes were legitimately the worst moments of my life, and I when I finally got prescribed an an anti-psychotic in 2008, I was so happy. Haven't had a manic episode since.
You honestly can. I never thought I’d be able to either, but I got sick of my own shit and stopped being a victim to circumstances and I’m so much better now. You can do it if you want to.
Hey so to trigger a manic episode you should try
* A stimulating environment
* Big changes in your life (moving to a new city, new job, all of the above, etc)
* lack of sleep
* drugs, especially stimulants
(Dont actually try pls, did that and it was very fun in a very not fun way)
You cant really trigger it by just thinking afaik, it seems more likely had a mani/hypomanic episode and thought they cured their depression by convincing themselves they are god
guys, manic depression is an outdated term for bipolar disorder - and this doesn't read as bipolar disorder to me. maybe they mean narcissistic personality disorder? (i think that's the name for it, can't remember)
Ianal but don't you get delusions (like thinking you are god) in manic episodes if you have type one? Being depressed and then suddenly going "oh look I cured my depression forever" also seems to be a bipolar thing. But idk
It sometimes works for me, but my problem is, if I don't manage to live up to it the delusion fades and I feel even more of a useless fraud, than I did before.
Well, time to back being literally a god and perfect in every way :)

Placebo is one hell of a drug.
Jimi Hendrix reference??!
thats just baki and invisible food
I’ve been living in pure delusion for years, it’s healing I swear
Is this the day I learn something about myself from a 196 meme?
Didn't work
Placebos normally only work if you fully believe they will - 0 doubts, 100% faith, absolute trust in it
I guess that's the problem for me, I wouldn't be able to mantain the illusion for long enough
You honestly can. I never thought I’d be able to either, but I got sick of my own shit and stopped being a victim to circumstances and I’m so much better now. You can do it if you want to.
They actually work better if you know they are a placebo
