12 Steps of Mental Illness + Direct Messages: “viscerrealist” spoken word poetry & music

This is some spoken word stuff I made with a friend’s excellent music for a new project. The 12 steps of mental illness is my version of the AA classic. You can interpret direct messages in a variety of ways. There are two versions. I kind of like the second one more, but I included both since others preferred the first one. It is taken from life: DMs, voice, phone and text from the past...passed... It’s hyperrealist or viscerrealist (coined term? visceral realism-esque?) I am making some with more a traditional literary style, as well. Figured I’d share it here.

How EMDR is Changing My Life + My Brain

EMDR is changing my life and my brain. Following my first EMDR short episode and my lighthearted episode on Fearful Avoidant Attachment, here is a brief in-depth description of the process and neurobiological mechanisms at play during therapy. Topics include preparation for EMDR, specifics of a session and the brain changes happening and why it won't work for some people. I do not have Borderline Personality Disorder, which can be a roadblock with EMDR. I have Bipolar Disorder Type 1 and Complex PTSD. https://youtube.com/@manicinmiami?si=F7Fl4X8UlTmcPLsa previous two are the two episodes below this one lol https://www.instagram.com/hollyhearingthings/ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/manicinmiami/message

Black Girl Uninterrupted

Manic in Miami presents Black Girl Uninterrupted. Florida Woman to Florida native. Bipolar 1 to Bipolar 2. Guest Jamila discusses her own diagnosis, her work with NAMI, mental health in the black community, intergenerational trauma and her experiences with racism and social expectations. Crushing irony: white girl interrupted Jamila in the episode (I think.) Sorry, Jam. Follow Jamila on Instagram: https://instagram.com/black_girl_uninterrupted/ https://www.nami.org/ Follow me, but people keep getting scared of my content and unfollowing (no one gets my bewildering, maladaptive humor tho): https://instagram.com/hollyhearingthings/ I contacted Jamila on Instagram way back when because she is a fellow mental health account with a fantastic username. We share the same dedication to spreading mental chillness for us all. (*special note: I was inspired to rewatch Girl, Interrupted after this. Between Winona Ryder observing the patients (in one of her signature "pensive, forlorn journal writing" roles, mind you) and Angelina Jolie's cheekbones, butt chin, and level of crazy...and my own mental illness which was thriving when the film debuted...I DID have to turn it off to protect my mental stability haha.

Manic in PARIS video! Bipolar/Psychotic Featured *international* Holly + French Laurène Meet IRL!

Two bipolar mood disordered ladies who have been psychotic (which at times feels somewhat erotic). I don't know what to label anyone anymore. Am I really schizoaffective? It doesn't matter. ANYWAY. My former remote French podcast guest and I met in Paris!!! We recorded in Luxembourg Gardens on a gorgeous late Spring day! The intro is back in Miami on a dreary day with an exhausted and somewhat morose Holly Hurricane. I have a few clips from our first episode together at the end. We sang Live Forever at karaoke because, in our search for karaoke common ground, we realized the lyrics are somewhat manic and make a good point in the context of psychosis: We see things y'all sane people will never see. 17 min fairly short, all things considered.

A Kenyan-American Woman's Story: Clairsentience in Psychosis + The Failings of Psychiatry

Trigger warnings: content includes tragic death, suicidality, traumatic experiences in behavioral health and psychiatry. Some comic relief in a serious episode: my unintentional repetition of "Welcome to my world!". I share some mind-altering experiences and opinions with Alyssa, and I am grateful that she has shared so much for this episode. Alyssa Otieno is a Kenyan-American woman who has experienced major psychotic episodes of mania and depression that began when she was just entering adulthood. She addresses cultural differences in perspectives on mental health, the ways in which the mental healthcare system as failed her, amongst deeply personal stories she was courageous enough to share for the benefit of others struggling with psychosis, mania, and depression. She faced tragic deaths and childhood trauma, but she has extracted spiritual significance and inspiring meaning from these experiences including clairvoyance and a connection with the deceased. Far from a "New Age" type, Alyssa has managed a corporate career and a leave of absence for her mental health. https://instagram.com/hollyhearingthings/ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/manicinmiami/message

The "Cult Leader" of "Coconut Grove" "Miami" "Where am I?"

Theater of The Absurd intro followed by a humiliating tale of persecutory delusions. The "cult leader" has NO CHILL. So I don't feel bad.

Ro-Manic Satanic Bipolar 1(st place!) in Brooklyn

2000s nostalgia. A memorable manic episode. Short and (bitter)sweet. Music : The Guilt Parade by The Birthday Party  The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline is now: 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline https://988lifeline.org/   Take your meds, people! Mania can easily take a fast turn to dysphoric mixed-state en route to depression. You can deny your manic depression Bipolar 1 all you want. Be ready to (repeatedly) gain momentum and holly hurricane yourself. This is a funny story, but much is left out...and it ends very badly on the other side. It's no joke.  --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/manicinmiami/message

Aleister Crowley is My Therapist. (Very Censored) with Tarot Reader Lauran

My favorite thus far? Trigger warning: adult humor (mostly censored out by innocent moi) Lauran Childs is a Tarot Reader extraordinaire, and a fantastic fun guest full of stories. You won't hear some. Sorry.  We read cards. There is a breakthrough: Tarot therapy working its magic live as it was happening. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/manicinmiami/message

Music + Music Therapy for Mental Health (non-Spotify)

another completely improvised episode (includes commentary on jazz improvisation + schizophrenia ha) I kind of learned how to do sound properly in audacity (just in time for the music episode..phew) I am a psychotic wet saw, and I will never hurt you. I LOVE this episode. It covers Venezuelan Composer Gabriel Pulido's experience with music therapy for mental health patients and an interesting discussion on "crazy" and music and much more. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/manicinmiami/message
