It's "bring your daughter to work day" in Ponyville, and Doctor Horse decides to participate. For his daughter, it's exciting at first, but when work engrosses him and she is left alone in his office, she sets off to explore. That psychiatric ward nearby had to be fun, why else would there laughter coming from it?

Is Screw Loose really the crazy pony we all think she is?

This story is a sequel to Playing Pretend

Screw Loose is happy. She has friends and a good job. Sometimes her medicine makes her see things, but sometimes those things mean a lot to her.

The doctor is making her take new medicine, so Screw Loose has to find a way to say goodbye to her best friend.

AN: Written for One-Shotober.

Screw Loose is better now. She doesn't have to live at the hospital, she doesn't think she's really a dog, she hardly ever has episodes anymore, and she's starting to make friends again. Sometimes, though, it's nice to play pretend.

Sometimes, Screwball helps her play pretend.

AN: Created for One-Shotober.

The Doc says I should start a journal. It'll help me quit smoking, he says. Well, it's a new year, I might as well start a new habit, right? What's the worst that could happen?

WARNING! Contains psychiatric abuse, a mention of a suicide attempt, a mention of an attempted rape, self-injury, foul language, and *gasp* MILD SHIPPING!

Did i ever tell you the definition of insanity?
- Vaas Montenegro, FarCry 3

Here she is, the epitome of such on the account of behaving less like a pony and more like a dog; whilst in her state, she had went by many names: Barking Mad, Screw Loose, what have you.

Of course, almost none of them happened to have been able to know the real her; in fact, it would also seem that she doesn't even know herself as everyone else does.

Memories flash into her eyes, some good, others bad, and a few ugly; one thing is clear: the mare starts to learn the awful truth about herself, one that has destroyed her lack of stability thereof.

A look into the life of a mare who went insane. What drove her to that state? Surely one simple accident wasn't enough? And why didn't anypony try to help her? In this series of short stories, acting as supplements to Barking Mad, these questions and many more will be explored and explained.

By some cosmic happenstance, a young woman is transported to Equestria, and finds herself in a precarious situation. She's taking it in stride so far. Maybe because finding herself in an alien world and in an alien body is not the worst thing that's ever happened to her.

Some wounds, especially those of the soul, can take a long time to mend. What healing arts can the ponies of Equestria offer a scarred young woman? What can she offer them in return?

Timeline-wise takes place starts off in the later parts of season 4 but before the season finale. It also mentions events from the EG-movies and the comics, but neither of which are required watching/reading in order to understand this story.

Trigger-warnings:
- Human-turned-into-pony-
- Who's kind of okay with being a pony-
- And becomes friends with the Mane 6.
- Being a pony is pretty awesome.
- Has both slice of life and adventure.
- Equestria Girls happened.
- Like the source material, it has adventures.
- And Celestia is not a jerk.

Rainbow Dash isn't having a very good day. First she was in some dark place, then it turns out she's in the hospital. Oh, and she's apparently blind now.

Eventual Twidash!

A human, having suffered due to the mysterious means of his transmission from one world to another, is stuck in bed recovering from his injures. While a little alarmed to find that the one looking after him is not human herself, he can't do much about it.

It helps that - as he finds - she's also rather good company.
