My day was going good until I slipped. I started crying while grocery shopping. I wasn't think abt many particular thing. It took me a few minutes to pull myself together. I tried to think abt my thoughts so I could prevent another crying episode. Mood: mixed with crying

I'm sorry you had such a bad day ((((cocosurviving)))). I don't understand what happened--did you physically slip because you started crying? That sounds like quite an emotional crying episode. Did you figure out what brought it on?

I'm OK, since it's the weekend and I'm not at my lousy job. It's nice to have a job, but it really does suck. All I do all damn day is look up customers in the system and see if they're actually in the system or not. So exciting.

Oh how I want a real job that's somewhat difficult and stressful. Keep my mind active, now that it's finally working at 90%.

Thanks Roadie--
I hadn't cried in two months that's why I said I slipped. I still don't know what my trigger was. I've pray abt it and hope it doesn't happen again.

You don't allow yourself to cry, cocosurviving? In my recovery, crying is cleansing and healing.

Roadie---I agree with you but I hate crying in public. I don't like feel I have no control over my emotions. I really need to think more abt my emotions and get centered.

My day today

Has been up and down, mostly up. Feeling really good but the intrusive thoughts of SUi hve mad another appearance. The little voice in my head is telling me to off myself. But that will pass I just have to ignore that voice. Went to the doc he gave me gabapentin for agitation and it seems to help for only a few hours, kinda dissppointed. Oh well things have to be getting better soon, right?

No ups or downs in a while. Just the middle. And it's truthfully not as boring as most people would think... It was when I was neutral for a long while months back, but not now. The most important thing is living like your hypo without the inner chaos: Setting goals, being active, having fun. So hopefully this lasts! I know my last episode won't be THE last but it's best to just go with the flow & try not to get too caught up in one state vs. another. Time to go offline & keep goin'.

I have no motivation to do anything today. I promised that today was the day I get back to my routine, diet exercise, errands. I barely roll out of bed. Feels like lead weights holding me down and I cant move. Mentally I am not depressed just sluggish.

So here I am present and to be accounted for. Sounding off.

Today was good---I hung out with the girls. We talked, quilted, knitted and ate.
Weather: bright and sunny
Mood: mellow
When it's March I hope my mood will be happy.

Feeling a bit hypo but not out of control. Once I take my meds I will get sleepy for a bit so I will be laying down for a nap shortly.

Trying to decide whether or not to take my Risperdal. On one hand, this anger is unbearable. On the other, it's from my OCD & not Bipolar. And it will pass eventually... It's just really miserable until it does.

I'm feeling pretty good today. I've been in a mixed state over the last few weeks, so it's nice to be somewhat stable.

I saw my tdoc last night and she's going to talk to my wife today (with my permission) about some of my impulsive and self destructive behavior when I'm manic. It's mostly so they're on the same page about monitoring my moods and making sure I don't do anything stupid when I'm not thinking rationally.

For the most part, everything is just peachy!
