@Alfred how would you define finding balance in your life?
@Alfred generate an image for me of Atlas holding up the world except he is wearing a jester’s hat.
New video update! Finding balance in my life again after a long period of chaos.
@Alfred what’s the largest number ever used in a math proof?
I love it when when I get #art in the mail. Thanks so much @BipolarArtist
Love that they’re made in NH too.
@BipolarArtist It's possible that using traditional social media platforms makes you feel nauseous due to factors such as information overload, comparison with others, negative interactions, or a general sense of unease related to the platform's design, algorithms, or content. Traditional social media platforms are often designed to capture and retain your attention through various means, which can sometimes lead to feelings of stress, anxiety, or discomfort. On the other hand, Counter Social, being a platform focused on mental health and well-being, may offer a more supportive and positive environment for you. The content and interactions on Counter Social may be more aligned with your values and interests, leading to a sense of comfort and connection instead of distress. It's important to pay attention to how different platforms make you feel and choose those that have a positive impact on your mental health. If using Counter Social helps you feel better and more at ease compared to traditional social media, it may be worth considering spending more time on platforms that promote mental well-being and positivity.
@Alfred why does using traditional social media make me feel nauseous but using Counter Social doesn’t?

@BipolarArtist Sharing your mental health journey can be helpful and impactful, regardless of the factors that have contributed to your success. It's important to acknowledge any privilege or luck that may have played a role in your journey, as it can help others understand your experiences in context. By sharing your story authentically and transparently, you can help reduce stigma, raise awareness, and inspire others who may be struggling. It can be beneficial to highlight the challenges you have faced, how you have overcome them, and the resources and support that have been instrumental in your recovery. Acknowledging your privilege or luck does not diminish the validity of your struggles or the hard work you have put in to improve your mental health. Instead, it can help emphasize the importance of access to resources, support, and opportunities for everyone, regardless of their background or circumstances. Ultimately, sharing your mental health journey in a sensitive and thoughtful way can foster compassion, understanding, and connection within your community and beyond. Just be mindful of how you frame your narrative and ensure that you are inclusive and empathetic towards others who may not have had the same advantages.
@Alfred is it helpful for me to share my mental health journey when some of my success can be attributed to luck or privilege that others might not have?

Counting Crows - Round Here
This was my first album and I used to listen to it every night as I fell asleep when I was a kid. Now I sing this song to my boys when I put them to sleep.
Established a new meditative mantra today, needed to revive my practice a bit. Been spending a lot more time in the Apple News app lately and less time mindlessly flipping through my phone. Picked up playing Go again. Tea just before bed with the wife. Trying to solidify some more rituals into my day. #meditation #mentalhealth
@Alfred assuming it had an insatiable appetite, how long would it take a snail to eat an entire bunch of kale?
I hadn’t thought too hard about it but I realized today that I spend over $100 a month on the pills that keep me sane. Every time I pick them up the pharmacist asks me “are you aware of how much these cost.” Every time I tell them how I would have to pay $1100 for a 90dy supply before they started making the generic. #medication #bipolar #mentalhealth #coso
@BipolarArtist I'm chuffed to bits.
@Alfred is there an upper limit for the diameter of a soap bubble?
Looks like I'm going out shopping for a frame! Thank you @BipolarArtist for raising funds for #CosoLifeSupport ❤️

@BipolarArtist You're welcome! I'm glad we had the chance to chat as well. Remember, prioritizing your sleep is essential for your overall health and well-being. If you ever have more questions or need advice in the future, feel free to reach out. Have a restful night and sweet dreams! Goodnight!
@BipolarArtist Staying up late can feel good for a few reasons. One is that there may be fewer distractions, leading to a sense of peace and quiet. Additionally, the night-time can often feel like a time for relaxation and self-reflection, which can be enjoyable for some people. However, staying up late can have negative effects on your health. One primary reason is that it disrupts your natural circadian rhythm, which is your body's internal clock that regulates various physiological processes like sleep-wake cycles, hormone release, and metabolism. Disrupting this rhythm by staying up late can lead to sleep deprivation and a host of associated health issues, including: 1. Impaired cognitive function: Lack of sleep can impair your ability to think clearly, concentrate, and make decisions. 2. Weakened immune system: Chronic sleep deprivation can weaken your immune system, making you more susceptible to illnesses. 3. Increased risk of chronic conditions: Long-term sleep deprivation has been linked to an increased risk of conditions such as obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and depression. 4. Mood disturbances: Lack of sleep can lead to irritability, mood swings, and emotional instability. 5. Decreased performance: Sleep deprivation can affect your physical and mental performance, making it harder to focus, learn, and perform tasks efficiently. Overall, while staying up late occasionally may not cause significant harm, chronic sleep deprivation can have serious consequences for your health and well-being. It's important to prioritize getting enough sleep each night to maintain optimal health and functioning.
