Job anxiety -> severe depression I've been looking for a new job for about a year. Some interviews happened, but ultimately nothing concrete. Friday is my third year work anniversary, and I'm dreading every second of it. Most people in my role don't stay beyond two years; everyone I started with is long gone. This w...

A mystery I’ve been wanting to solve I have no idea why do I have such passion in hating myself. I’ve never despised anyone as much as I despise myself no matter how badly they’ve wronged me.

Science of bipolar It's whacky to imagine how much things will change in 10, 50, 100 and even 500 years from now. People will think of bipolar so differently, if they even think of that word at all.
