Download or read book Fuckin Poetry written by Roland Frye and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-01-11 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fuckin Poetry: Haiku for the Bipolar is a look into the mind of one average man and his struggle with bipolar disorder. The author originally chose to write poetry in the form of haiku, as a therapeutic method of dealing with his disorder. However, the author found himself in the middle of Axis I teetering between moments of mania, depression and anxiety. As one will see, the authors journey begins with a reflection upon family and leading into a spiraling life and death struggle of losing friends to drugs and suicide. The author deals with the stigmata of bipolar disorder and stamped 296 (the beginning of the DSM diagnostic codes for bipolar disorder) by trying to embrace the world around him and telling it to fuck off at the same time. The author chooses to write about his experiences as impressionist painting of a life in hope that others with this will overcome their fears in others to find their own form of art as a means of articulating to the outside world what is bottled up inside. In a world where one foot is always hanging over the edge, the author hopes that Fuckin Poetry will help others find a way to cope with their disorder.

Download or read book Bipolar Poems Before After Lithium written by Gene Olson and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2016-01-20 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifty years have passed since Gene Olson spent many a lonely night on fire and security watch at the Guam Naval Transient Barracks. With long hours, no books or magazines, and only a lizard as company, he picked up a pen and paper and began writing poetry. Though once dead, these pages have been resurrected in his new book. Bipolar Poems: Before and After Lithium is a fascinating poetry collection that spans half a century. Some of the poems were written during Olson's time in the military, before he was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and treated with lithium, offering an interesting contrast with his work of later years. These poems are raw, courageous, compelling, and entertaining-shedding some much-needed light on the shadows of mental illness. I was trying to catch my ship The USS Tioga County (LST-1158), last seen somewhere in Vietnam waters. No one knew her exact whereabouts. In Guam I was assigned at the Naval Transient Barracks as an all night Fire and Security Watch. Once an hour I would walk through the barracks and then call a report to the OD, Officer of the Day. I would also collect orders from late sailors and assigned sleeping quarters etc. All through the night I had only one companion. A lizard was hiding behind a large oval clock. When a fly came near, he would slowly crawl out. His tongue was swift, the fly had no chance! With many hours, no book, no magazines, I picked up a pen and paper and started writing poetry. It was poetry only for myself. I never showed it to anyone. I never dreamed someday it would be published. Fifty years have passed since my poetry attempts started on the Guam Naval Transient Barracks. BIPOLAR POEMS BEFORE AND AFTER LITHIUM, was partly gathered over this time period. Though once dead, the pages have been resurrected. I sometimes wonder if these poems are worthy of print at all. Or if I'm just being a "Proud Peacock." Time will tell.

Book excerpt: The book Bipolar Poetry : Erasing My Demons is a collection of a struggling young man's thoughts captured in intense rhymes. The words that the author found at both the highest and lowest points of his mental illness truly bring to light the inconsistent, ever changing realities that define the bipolar mind. The writer entangles the feelings of loss, love, faith, anger and doubt together in such a way that leaves you questioning good and evil, and the true clarity of either. Throughout the book the poems and prayers outline the writer's journey into the dark searching for light. Bipolar, or Manic Depressant, young adults are diagnosed more and more in the 21st century, and some extreme accounts of this irrational behavior have even resulted in violent disasters plaguing local and national television. Although the author of this book has never really violently hurt anyone, his rhymes emphasize some of the irrational thoughts that in some less fortunate cases to often result in these sometimes deadly tragedies. The author expressed the reasoning behind this book was to help people better comprehend the inconsistent thought patterns, and inner battles that so many with a mental illness face day in a day out. He also stated that even at his lowest he could never comprehend how some could use mental illness to excuse rape or murder, and he praised God he couldn't.
