Mental health, Medication and Miscellaneous: Are you OK?

Are you OK?

By Squid - 07/11/2012 05:11 - Australia - Hornsby

Today, I found a limp head of celery in the fridge. I thought it looked like the squid alien baby from Men in Black. After nursing it for a couple of hours, giving it food, and rocking it to sleep, my parents found me. Then I realised it was just celery. Too bad it took that long for my meds to kick in. FML

Same thing different taste

It's for science!

Today, I finally got round to cleaning out my refrigerator. As I reached the back, I found an unidentifiable, moldy object lurking in the corner. Upon closer inspection, I realized it was once a cucumber. I'm growing science experiments in my fridge. FML

I told you so

Today, my parents brought home lunch from a shady grocery store deli. They mused about how hard I am to feed because I turned it down; the last time I ate anything from there, it gave me botulism, and it tastes horrible anyway. They both got sick. Now I'm playing nurse to both. No apologies yet. FML

5-star meal

Today, while I was babysitting, the toddler was feeding me banana slices from her tray while I was cutting up clay for her to mold. It was all fine until she shoved something hard and crunchy into my mouth. I immediately spat it out into my hand. It was a dead cricket she found on the floor. FML

Night terrors

By Si123 - 15/08/2020 08:01

Today, after a long day at work, I was ready to wind down for the night. I sat on my bed and turned towards a fluttering on my left. I saw the biggest daddy-longlegs inches from my face, jumped in the other direction, forgetting there was a wall, and hit my head on it. I'm now officially wide awake. FML

Abandoned

By Anonymous - 04/04/2020 05:00

Today, I found a baby in a cradle on my doorstep. I was shocked that someone would do this, so I picked it up and uncovered the baby. It was actually a rudimentary stink bomb that went off in my face when I uncovered it. FML

Hello little dude

Today, I was about to get in the shower, when I felt an odd itch in my navel. I saw what I thought was bellybutton lint, so I pulled on it, and quickly realized what I had between my fingers was a still-squirming, headless tick. FML

Today, I found a banana on my bed. It was black and shriveled because I accidentally left it there after I thought I finished the whole bushel I bought last week. I've been sleeping in my bed all week and didn't notice. FML

Today, I found a mealworm in my cornflakes. I had already finished most of the bowl. I didn't make it to the toilet to throw up. FML

It WAS the alien baby from Men In Black, just in its vegetative state.

I'm really sorry you had to deal with that OP. I used to be on a medication that would GIVE me hallucinations like that, and it honestly freaked me out more than anything. Hope you got the med situation under control now!

Yeah, 50, you're thinking Dissociative Identity Disorder. Schizophrenia (which I believe means 'broken mind' and is at least partly due to the misconception) is more like the 'typical crazy' that comes to mind when you think of people that are off their rocker. Hearing voices, delusional, paranoid, etc. Of course there are many different degrees of illness and many (if not most) are able to manage their condition under the right medication.

Schizophrenia can create multiple personalities. it doesn't happen all the time, but it has happened. the voices that people hear in their heads sometimes become them. like, the voices that they hear in their heads influence them to become something they're not, thus creating multiple personalities. also, the voices in their heads technically are multiple personalities.
