One characteristic of manic depressives is a tendency to become obsessed with people, subjects or things. Have learned about a variety of subjects because of my disorder: from Robbie Williams to Akitas and from Michael Ballack to the Icelandic horse. These obsessions can become expensive, and tend to last for the duration of a hypomanic […]

“Tanya, it’s Seb,” Mum calls through the bathroom door. “Where?” I shout. “On the phone,” Mum calls. “On my way,” I shout, hauling myself out of the bath, pulling my towel round me. “So, the thing about garden birds is that they’re an artificially sustained population,” Mum is saying into the phone when I make […]

This year am participating in Ginuary: a different gin-based drink for each day in January. Am not a detox fan and it’s the opposite of a detox. It’s also a fun, creative project and a friend does it too. Read about it here: Www.ginuary.com Started with a French 75 on New Year’s Eve: gin, champagne […]

New Year’s Resolutions 1. Be kinder to elderly parentals. Particularly to Dad. He puts up with So Much. 2. Do this at least once per day. But not more than three times per hour. Mustn’t exhaust self. 3. Drink less water. All it does is turn into wee anyway. 4. Work towards own Keeshond puppy […]

Jolting out of sleep, I check my watch: 3.45am. Yuck. I’m wide awake: morning-awake. Switching my phone on, reaching for my water bottle, I gulp some down. It’s annoying, but understandable. Am, despite what have been telling everyone (why?) nervous about Major Surgery in 2 days time. Checking Facebook, there are about ten of […]

Normal service will be resumed tomorrow. Mood has gone quite high so am going to meditate and rest. Tomorrow am dog sitting all day for the fluffy Keeshond. Can’t wait. Have cancelled all my more-stimulating plans as am not up to them. Need to rest. The attached photo is the elephant in Seb’s Mum’s […]

“But you said you’d take me to the garden centre,” I say, sitting next to Mum on the sofa. Need to get out of the house and do something. Can’t just sit here. “We can go at two o’clock,” Mum says, looking at the crossword, pen poised above the paper. “That won’t give us long […]

“It’s difficult having a conversation with you at the moment as you can’t follow it,” Seb says yesterday. We’re walking back to the flat from the coffee shop where Seb has consumed his coffee, whilst I spilt my one all over the floor. “We’re not communicating: you’re just wrapped up in your thoughts. You’re not […]

“Rather a lot of parcels have arrived for you,” Dad says. “Oh, good,” I say, looking at the pile of boxes and padded envelopes on the dining room table. “What are all these packages?” Mum says, looking at me with that you’ve-gone-high-again-haven’t-you look. Or as a friend once put it: “Your mother looks terrified: as […]
