This post will sound pretty whiny, so you might want to skip it.
There's no doubt that I am feeling better. So wth do I do with my time? Before you jump in, I have some limits.
My husband works PT, and he'd pretty much have to take me anywhere as I have driving anxiety. He doesn't necessarily want to commit to anything.
Here are some things I do: go out for breakfast or lunch with friends, go to a women's support group, go to a bipolar support group, talk once a week with a prayer partner, do devotional and meditate, see 2 therapists and my pdoc, go to church, go to yoga twice a week, long walk once a week, gym once a week, cook 3 times a week (for 5 people), quilt (altho it's getting boring), write a weekly blog, listen to audio books. I also volunteer by collecting stuff from church for a homeless senior center.
This might sound like a lot, but I still have long stretches of time with nothing to do. Today I got up, took a shower, and did my devotionals. That lasted till 9am. Now I have nothing to do till 4 when we are going to a baseball game.
I wonder if I am getting hypo. I also hate to commit to too much volunteer stuff in case I crash.
I am on both private and SSDI disability. The private disability will not let me make any money at all.
What do you guys think? I hope I didn't come off as a whining *****.
