Good morning. I slept well. About 8 hours. I finished a book I was reading. Gonna start the next one in the series today. Plans for today are to get on the treadmill for 45 minutes. Maybe an hour since I’m not taking an outside walk today. I have a volunteer shift with the rescue cats tonight from 6pm to 8pm. So I’ll be getting home anywhere from 8 to 9pm depending how long the shift takes and how long the bus takes to show up after that. Sometimes I miss the most recent bus by a minute or so and have to wait another 30 minutes for the next one. Either way, when I get home I’m gonna eat dinner, take my night meds. Read and relax for a couple hours then go to sleep. Also gonna do my 15 minutes of stress relief yoga today and probably some weights and squats with resistance bands. I slept solidly through the night. When I woke up my cat Mustachio was laying on me purring. Always a nice way to wake up.

My mood is good. I feel less scatterbrained now that I’m actually sleeping. Also less racing thoughts at night. I’ve been doing good with sleep hygiene too.

Time to make breakfast soon. Having sourdough toast with avocado and a fried egg on top. Just enjoying some decaf coffee and some music right now.

I’m hoping his continues with getting good sleep. Last spring I was manic really severely. I guess this is the time it typically happens for me. I still feel really high energy but not really hypomanic anymore at least I think not. I’m not impulsively texting people too much, and have been sleeping more than the 3-4 hours a night I was getting every night. . But I’ll just watch and see how things go.

In other news I haven’t dissociated in like 3 weeks or longer. Which is insane for me. Cause normally it happens at least several times a week and has been that way for many many years.
