''Flowers for Algernon''

Posted by Christ_empowered on May 25, 2014, at 9:34:18

So...my mental abilities have improved. I'm no longer a dumb little sissy (praise God!).

Its funny, how recovery and intelligence change things. People treat me better. I comprehend the world better. I write better, when I put my mind to it.

I believe in Jesus, Born Again Christian-style, but I'm intelligent enough to have moments of doubt and unbelief.

More is expected of me. I can do more. People around here can't mess with me nearly as much.

Strange, strange, strange...stupidity and mental illness, when combined, = pain and misery, and you can't even fully articulate what you're going through, and nobody cares, anyway.

Ramble for the day :-)

For what it's worth, your posts have always seemed intelligently written. When I have bottomed out in BPII depression, my thinking became slowed down as did my motor skills.

Plus, it seems like you might have felt cowed by your situation. If so, I imagine that would effect reasoning abilities.

I am glad you are feeling better. Are you regaining confidence?

business right now (management) but...wow...business law is kicking my a$$. I'll do well, trust me, but...I'm questioning my major...
