I'm trying to put myself into a "Friday mood," and my attitude is gradually improving. I'm getting together with my sister this evening, which is per usual on Fridays, and we will celebrate her birthday. I want to be in a good mood for her special day.

I've lost 7 more pounds of the weight I gained from Olanzapine--that's a total of 53 pounds gone, thanks to the keto diet. Be that as it may, as it's my sister's birthday today, so we will be indulging. (She wants empanadas and cup cakes.) Besides, I make it a point to indulge once a week so that my metabolism won't slow down.

I continue to struggle with "what if's," worrying over what could happen in various situations, and stressing out over little things. I know I'm just projecting my anxiety over the delusional intrusions on things which helps to know. But I've been taking Lorazepam almost daily to deal with it all. I don't like that. But so far today, I haven't needed one. Fingers crossed.

Hope everyone has a peaceful day.
