Not doing great, but I think the worst dip in my mood is over for now. Thank goodness. I need a plan, cannot do this every few weeks as it is very extreme. I mean, at one point I couldn't even look at a picture of myself without thinking I was a monster? It's just too much.
Possible trigger:
. My doctor said to call if I got worse after our last appointment, but it's sort of a catch22 situation, because when I need help I am usually not in much of a place to realize it. Sometimes I have been good about calling for help when doing poorly, but also not sure what they would do if I am not an immediate risk to myself anyways. Good news is I am tracking my moods this month and will have more to show them, so hopefully that will help us figure things out. Also looking for a light therapy box (I discussed this with my doctor last appointment), trying to find a therapist, taking supplements like vitamin D and eating regular meals, getting enough sleep (sometimes too much but work is helping keep this regular), and I scheduled an acupuncture appointment (this has helped my joint pain and premenstrual symptoms successfully in the past). Trying to get better, but feel like I am swimming against a current and keep getting pulled under by waves over and over again! Hugs to everyone who wants them.
