Good god. I’m setting a calendar reminder for all of the September 9ths for all of the future ever: “Avoid social media tomorrow“

Pocket-Sized Survival Kits: Sleep – Awake
Working on pages 21 [depression on the left, (hypo)mania on the right]: Things to do when I’m back at home, anywhere but work, really.
Pages 10-11 are “How to Go to Sleep” for (hypo)mania, and “How to Stay Awake” for depression, below.
Now, I’ll follow the advice in my kit and go to bed.
Pocket-Sized Survival Kits: Pages
A friend is here, fell asleep on the couch. It’s nice to have a friend here who is comfortable doing that. I gave her a blanket, and switched to my lullaby playlist.
Meanwhile, I work on the pocket-sized survival kits. The first image is of the covers, with mania on top, depression below. Second image is page 2 of each, which are the same text. Third is pages 14 & 15, mania on top, depression below again:
Pocket-Sized Survival Kits: Photo Prepping
Collecting photos to print and paste in my travel survival kits.
Pocket Sized Survival Kits
Time to style up some portable survival kits. I bought the most beautiful, plain little sketchbooks today. Two. I am going to make mini kits that I can slip into my bag when I need one: A depression one and a mania one.
I have all sorts of survival kits – The shoe-box sized ones, my books, the pages in the Corkulous app on my iPad, and the mixes I’ve made. But I forget them when I need them.
I’ll decorate them – I usually create both when I am (hypo)manic anyway. I can decorate the cover, paste stuff inside – I’m looking forward to the process as much as having them available.
Will keep you updated. This is what they look like now:
Silver Lining Fail
Cleaning up the piles of paper and other chores may be a great way to use my hypomanic energy this weekend. But is that really a silver lining?
