Manic Ideas

Posted on August 26, 2020 by Detrecto

I once tried to get pigeonholed by a psychiatrist as someone with a diagnosis of bipolar. It didn’t fit comfortably and I could tell what he was trying to do. I flat out refused to accept that diagnosis. That was 10 years ago. I still believe I’m right and he was wrong. Mainly because diagnosis…

Minecraft

Posted on August 24, 2020 by Detrecto

It’s a good job this blog is anonymous because I’ve suddenly developed a bit of a thing about Minecraft. Initially this started because mini-Detrecto and I started messing around in creative mode. Just putting blocks on top of one another and then building pens for various animals. Fun stuff. But then a bad thing happened….

The Happy Broadcast

Posted on August 24, 2020August 24, 2020 by Detrecto

Someone reminded me today to look for the happy in life and having recently reviewed all of my posts I realise I can seem quite negative.

Sometimes…

Posted on August 17, 2020 by Detrecto

Two entries in one day. I must be working from home again. I love my job. I love being a peer worker. I love the values of peer work. I love everything it stands for and how different the relationships that are build through it can look compared to other types of mental health support….

Covid can go fuck itself. It’s been a pretty shit week. I’ve needed some time off work as I’m suffering from a certain level of burnout and I was planning to speak to my GP this week about the possibility of some mental health related sick leave. A bout of suspected mild pneumonia put pay…

Passion

Posted on August 15, 2020 by Detrecto

When you go to training you inevitably go around the room and people introduce themselves and say what they are passionate about. I’m passionate about a few things in life but I can honestly say that I’d love to be as passionate about something in my life as my daughter is about blowing things up…

Disclosure Anxiety

Posted on August 12, 2020 by Detrecto

I gave the address of this blog to a co-worker today. On one hand, I’m pretty comfortable with that. There’s nothing inherently bad or deep in here that I wouldn’t be comfortable sharing with this particular person. But…! What if I forgot about the entry where I disclose about the time I beat a baby…

I Am Inevitable

Posted on August 10, 2020 by Detrecto

Back working from home as a result of a lot of rain and a small spike in Covid cases locally. In reality, what this looks like: Me getting some shitty flu like symptoms, having a day time sleep for the first time in ages and rocking up for a 3rd Covid test in the space…
