My medication. Lithium in small exactly precise doses according to each individual is helpful. But we have to take blood tests to check the toxicity.

We have to stay hydrated and be really careful if we are sick or vomiting

A warning signs is shaking (I tests my hands regularly), nausea and outcome is dying. Ha.

Yes, I do.

I enjoy handwriting and it is much faster for me. I like to have a couple of different coloured pens and have it organised. Usually I just end up with a scribbled mess but that is okay. At least only I can read it. If I need to I will type it up afterwards - I love typing as well.

Rooahroo opera singing mostly, which means "You're home you're home you came hooome muuuuuuuum!" And further rooarraows which means in a singsong voice "A WALK a WALK we are going a walk!" Soft aroos mean "I love you" Various tones of low roo sounds mean she needs me to notice something, to warn me about something, or wants me to open a door or is not feeling well.

Other talking includes letting me know about the other dogs around us and whether or not they are safe and friendly. We have big conversations about this. There's also "I'm sleepy, I'm doing a big yawn mum look" There's the obvious danger growl. Sometimes she'll tell me about how comfortable she is, or will soon be. We properly talk and have conversations, she is very good at expressing herself. Or I understand her well. Both.

Chocolate brownie and salted caramel, or chocolate and peanut butter. Or maybe white chocolate boysenberry.

It can be a lot more difficult to develop and maintain good friendships as an adult. You really need a longstanding topic to bond over. When you are younger you have education and daily interaction to bring you together.

I've found that to build friendships you really need to do something, enjoy something together and do it with some regularity. This is why joining a group where there is already a joint focus is recommended.

It is a bit of putting yourself out there and it can feel really lonely, I know.

...The fact that people need this pointed out to them is concerning.

[–] Cheriebarie@reddthat.com 2 points 2 years ago

That's lovely!

Hey, that's fantastic! Well done for leaving drinking behind, it is a really tough time. What kind of film project are you working on?
