Some of you may know me from Instagram as @brainwave_archive, which is a home for the poetic thoughts that pass through my mind (an archive of my brainwaves, if you will).
BrainwaveBlog is a new home for the "prose thoughts" that pass through my mind. This is where longer ideas (such as those that require paragraphs, lists, and citations) will live.
This site is organized into two main categories:
On Being
This first category will include posts about the difficult, strange, and beautiful experience of being human. Sound vague? It's meant to be. How else can I house everything from existential rants to relationship advice under one roof, giving me the illusion of control and cleanliness that I attempt to thrive on? It's similar to how my idea of cleaning involves simply moving all the miscellaneous items out of sight (perhaps in a drawer), rather than untangling the earbuds and organizing the old receipts. Moving on.
On Bipolar
Ah mental health. Some of you may know that I am diagnosed with High-Functioning Bipolar II, not to mention Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Panic Disorder, Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), Attachment Disorder, PTSD and OCD. This second category will encompass the realizations, observations, and experiences that come from living a life of chronic highs and lows. My hope is that some of you may find these words relatable, cathartic, or otherwise meaningful to your own lives.
Off You Go
I hope these writings not only have a safe space here on the internet, but also find room within your own minds. Maybe my ideas will play nicely with your ideas.
So, search for something that resonates with you. Have a read. Leave a comment.
Much Love,
BrainwaveBlog ❤️
