I guess my favorite date is May 22, which is my wedding anniversary. I like that date even more than my birthday or holidays. I have wonderful memories about my wedding day and several anniversaries. Late May is a wonderful time of the year, anyway. Generally, I am not into remembering or recognizing dates that represent bad things. I do remember some horrible dates, but often they pass unnoticed. If you asked me the date of my first psych hospitalization, I'd have to look in my medical records. I'm not even sure of the season, but I don't recall there being snow. That was 13 to 15 years ago. I don't even remember that completely, and I don't care.
Q: What was your favorite journey in your life so far? Could be a trip or any other type of journey in life. |

A trip back to my home city I took with my ex-husband in 2004, I think. We only went for 3 days, stayed in a very nice hotel in the financial district. I told no family I was there, and we did all the tourist stuff - it was great fun, and the only trip I ever took that I was not eager to get home.
Do you find overeating helps to numb some of your unpleasant states? |

Bipolar question. Does this happen to anyone else or is it something besides bipolar?
For my personal experience, If I get into an argument or someone yells or personally attacks me, I escalate the situation in my head rapidly or grossly over react. A simple negative conversation can quickly turn into violence and/or threats of violence. I can stay angry at that person for days or weeks with the event continually replaying in my mind. When I finally get over it, I fall into depression mainly because I'm mad at myself for the way I acted. Because of the way I over react, I tend to stay to myself avoiding friends, family and social situations. I also have recurring thoughts of Murdering and torturing people. These thoughts used to be disturbing but has been going on for such a long time that they are more like fantasies now. Enjoyable and only somewhat disturbing. These thoughts have been with me since about 12-14 yrs of age. I was hospitalized in 2007 while in a manic phase having delusions and hallucinations. Diagnosed with Bipolar 1 |

Definitely mixed emotions about my childhood. It was happy, but I spent too much time self sabotaging. I tried to control everything even as a child. Silly me. It took me almost 40 years to realize there is very little in this world I can actually control.
Sticking with childhood, or maybe adulthood... What is your favorite cartoon? |

when I was a kid, it was " the busy world of richard scary". if their was something in the shop with that on it (mug, bed covers, toys, I'd have it)
their was even a richard scary fruit machine near to where I lived. now I've switched to lion guard not only is it based on the lion king (my favorite film), but it has good songs in it and teaches you swahili (which I have a bit of an interest in) question: what is the most unusual word that you know? |

Well, it's foreign. "Hmoždíř" in Czech means mortar and pestle. It's a doozy to pronounce. Some of the sounds in this word are not present in the English language, particularly the "ř".
Q: What language(s) have you studied? Are fluent in? |

when I was at school, I had to do french and spanish as part of the weekly timetable.
I'm not entirely convinced I know much french (I think I can count to 6 at a push?) spanish I know a bit more but only basic phrases. question: do you live in a flat, a house, or something else? |

mine is actually very empty
I've got a bench and a barbecue (which never gets used), and lots and lots of grass I want to get a bench swing (my grandmother had one and they are lovely), but that aside, I am not the gardening type (maybe some lavender would be nice, but hmm.) how do you like the sound of a robot future? (robots doing housework, driving, etc) |

It would be an adjustment having robots do personal things such as you describe. I'd probably have to build trust in them and would surely have some complaints. I guess I would feel better about a robot doing some things (like mowing the lawn or vacuuming) than other things (like cooking or tidying up).

Three. Risperdal at first and then Depakote. The Depakote made my heart palpitate. I'm on Geodon now and it seems to be working well.
Q. What is your favorite day of the week? |
