You are so busy! I could never keep up with that schedule.

@Crazy Hitch
I am 46 too

I slept well last night, 8 hr. again. So I'm getting pretty good sleep again. I wonder if I can try regular coffee again or if that will just cause me anxiety. I know it made things worse when I was manic. However, I think I'm stable now and decaf just isn't the same. However, I've gone nearly a week on decaf, and much less soda, like 1-2 a day instead of 4 or 5 and my anxiety has been a lot better. But I haven't really had any stressors, other than the night I forgot to take Seroquel.

I did the 10K runner today (knockoff couch 2 10K, and it's getting harder. I think I may have to repeat week 3. I'll see how I feel in a couple of days. I walked home and took the long route b/c I was frustrated that MapMyFitness seemed to be frozen on my phone, so I had to download MapMyWalk and set it up, and that took FOREVER. I have MapMyWalk on my current iPhone, but I use an old one that is not activated for my walks b/c that one has a cracked screen already, so it doesn't matter if I accidentally drop it. However, having to download and set up that program on a phone with a cracked screen did shoot my irritation sky high, and I took the longer route home to help me calm down.
