BPD in OKC: Photo scavenger hunt

Mature audiences only

You have no doubt seen or heard the commercials: "Where does depression hurt? EVERYWHERE. Who does depression hurt? EVERYONE." Mental illnesses can consume you, take over your entire life and hurt everyone around you if you let it. I am no exception.

My life feels like I am stuck riding on a rollercoaster in the middle of a hurricane. I have ups and downs, and I have left a path of destruction in my wake. My sanity dangles on a tiny fragile string, and through this blog I am giving the world a look into my broken mind and my unstable life.

In the end, I am just a girl trying to maintain my sanity in a candy-coated world of misery. Here you'll get a glimpse at just how true those commercials are. Keep your arms and legs inside the blog at all times, hold on tight, and prepare yourself for a very bumpy ride ...

Feel free to comment here on the blog or email me at bpdokc@yahoo.com.

Photo scavenger hunt

I found a photo scavenger hunt challenge on Cookingmom's blog, and I thought I'd try it in addition to the Project 365 photos I'm doing. It's actually a Facebook challenge, but I'll do it here. It may actually help me think of photos to take for Project 365 on the days when I am having a creative block, which is the main reason I want to do it...

On your Facebook profile, go to pictures and create a Scavenger Hunt photo. Whenever you take a picture of one of the items, upload it to that photo and label it. All items are up to interpretation; there are no right or wrong kind of pictures! Some items are easy, some a little harder, and some kind of difficult. Only real rule is that pictures must be new; you can't grab them from previous albums! There is no deadline; this is just for fun!
