Jellies and Bobbles and Fractals, Oh My!

It's been a long time since I've worked on anything art related. It's been hard to come up with new ideas and stay motivated. However, I did sort of recently play around with Apophysis 7X (you can see my other project with this program here ) to create 3D  flame fractals  and had a blast. So I wanted to post a few of pieces that I worked on. Click on a picture for a larger view. If you want to see some more of my artwork (that may or may not be horrible), click here for my Imgur album, which is sorted from newest to oldest. I hope you enjoy!

A friend mentioned that it reminded him of metroids from the Metroid games. This is my favorite out of the bunch.

Drug Trials’ Encouraging Results for Borderline Personality Disorder

I wanted to link to a fantastic article over at the Personality Disorders Awareness Network about drug trials that were conducted that show two medications that might be beneficial to those of us with BPD. Unfortunately due to the nature of BPD, there is no medication that can take the place of therapy, especially Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. But medication is a great supplement to help manage our moods like irritability, depression and aggression. This article goes over Zyprexa (Olanzapine) and Seroquel (Quetiapine). http://www.pdan.org/drug-trials-encouraging-results-for-bpd/ Have any of you been on either of these medications? How did it affect you? On a side note, I apologize for the lengthy time between posts and for this sorter post today. Sometimes it is difficult for me to talk about my own dealings with BPD. Next post I hope to cover Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, how it is beneficial, and my own experiences, so keep an eye out in the coming days for that!
