Being Mentally Normal: The Theory and The Actuality

[Mitchy1nge]

we must be on part 11 or something by now?

But what are the passports for?

It's definitely possible to stop. I have no SHing urges (other than my suicide attempt before Christmas, I guess, but that was very different in terms of motives and enotions) now. I do do counter-productive things like breaking my diet or occasionally getting tipsy, but it's not the same SHing mechanisms IYSWIM. More like a fairly normal lack of self-discipline

dunno really? you need them for when the vet comes to do vaccinations

and travelling, going to events and stuff

you just have to have them now

Excellent video.

Like a car log book? Or something like that?

Go, rodeo ponio! Mine only bucks half heartedly. She's a bit dull really...

I was a chronic overdoser as a teen, too, Caulk - when i was 15 I took 12-14 Kapake a day and 8 paracetamol (for chronic headache), then when I overdosed I would take 40-100 tablets. I only ended up on an antidote drip once, despite being tested in hospital for a fair few of the intentional overdoses Weirdly,when they tested my blood, the paracetamol levels were usually much lower than they'd expect for the number I said I'd taken. Which of course meant I was lying

I hope your liver is as apparently unaffected as mine.

I'm constantly amazed at how many people on this thread have horses

Yes, I've only ever been asked for passports for vaccinations. Apparently there are some drugs that are meant to be logged (?bute), but I've never had to hand over a passport. I think we're technically meant to return them when the horse dies, but I never have and they've never been asked for
The whole thing is a farce, on some levels

he does it all the time, usually just up and down like that, like a rocking horse which is annoying enough but sometimes he will bolt, stop dead and do a motherfucking handstand, or do furious machine gun type bucks until you lose your seat

I fucking hate him sometimes!

My lovely horse has a passport and doesn't buck. He does do the crab manoeuvre when faced with anything remotely scary. I owe him a good run, might hunt him next weekend.

(I love him really, that's why I'm always looking for a special home for him somewhere like a sausage factory)

He looks v cheeky. I love a cheeky ponyhorse!

Ahh, crabbing, mine does that too, usually carrier-bag-in-hedge induced

There's a lot of horses in local fields - I like saying hello to them. There's one I call Wartyhorse who always comes to say hello. He's one of the swaybacked waifs taken in by a local madwoman horse rescue.

I want to hunt but

1. cap is £75 now I swear it was £40 last time I went
2. friend went with one nearby lot (a few overlapping as we are in the absolute middle of suffolk) and said nobody spoke to her ALL DAY (I like chat, obviously)
3. the horse am allowed to borrow went lame, is sound again but not fit
4. is enough effort keeping own lot in work even with help of autistic teen and one sharer

worried about caulk

yeah is very like a log book, previous owners and that sort of thing

£75!!!!! What!
I took DHorse to a mock hunt, aged 4 and she was a star. I almost killed my friend's OH, apparently, but we shall gloss over that
I used to draghunt DPony as a child, that was always an experience

Drunk.

Why? dunno.

I do not merit enhanced CPA. I am not mentally ill.

How drunk is drunk? Is it now time to stop and then think about it tomorrow?

Disclaimer: I am no expert in anything other than always going too far.

Would you like us to distract you?

I okay. Thankyou.
Sorry.

No need to be sorry. I'm sure we could fill a whole thread just saying sorry to each other for the fleeting moments of Mental Abnormality.

mine doesn't say whether am 'enhanced' :( does that it is diminished care plan? minimised? downplayed?

it does say on the very front 'useful information for those providing care: when mood is elevated mitchy will become impulsive, irritable and aggressive . . .' and it goes on to make me sound really scary

which sounds more like a behavioural disorder to me and not a mental illness

That's true

I'm a little bit jealous I don't have one. I'm sure if I did i would wish I didn't, but still...
