Very bad time ... must have work annual evaluation in tomorrow and all signs are new boss has prepared my exit papers. Financial reasons for employer, not so much personal--I'm just old. Bipolar flares up and mind races, not letting me grab onto sensible ways to deal with this ...
Bouncing from panic to anger to despair and back to panic, never slowing anywhere to even catch my breath--much less my brain ...

I am ok but finding myself a little anxious which is pulling my mood down a little. Usually my husband is home by now but this has been an extended week for him to be out of town so I have been alone longer than is usual. I am a loner to a certain extent but I still need some human interaction. Maybe I will go to the grocery store and get some ice cream.

Had to take a non drowsy antihistamine for my fall alergies and now I am all hypo and can't sleep...
But I am no longer sneezing, coughing, wiping my nose or rubbing my eyes....so I guess its a fair trade. |

Earlier this morning was awful! I woke up with really bad anxiety, I couldnt get out of bed for an hour until I heard my horse calling out and realised I needed to let her out. I came back severely shaking, trying not to spew, teeth chattering uncontrollably, very very tight chest and chest pain and a slight headache. While I felt it wasnt thoughts doing this, I still sat down and did my CBT and wrote out positive affirmations about everything that could possibly have triggered this.
And it worked  The anxiety is still trying to drag me under but I am writing and continuing to say my affirmations and I am keeping it at bay. I can breathe again, Im not shaking, not spewy, my chest is still a little tight but so much better than it was. Its not completely gone but it is manageable now which is all I need to get through my day

Supanova I sympathize with your feelings, I'm happy to know the cbt worked for you, I need to learn from your example because it is something I need to practice more myself. Well done.

Im so pleased it worked for me too! I was quite skeptical and was thinking this would be a seroquel day because I didnt feel I had anything triggering it - how wrong was I! I found at least 4 major things that were influencing me. I do need to keep repeating the affirmations and reading what I have written down every few minutes but the relief is worth it.

Feeling much better today, I heard from my friend and all is well, I took meds as prescribed, I'd skipped my ap 2 nights in a row so I wouldnt oversleep, as well as, as a klonopin. This morning I am sleepy. That always happens when I take the KL at night. I feel calmer so maybe what I fear is hypomanic is anxiety. I'll have to watch and see.

Still doing well since the AD started a month ago. The bottom-outs are just gone....I mean GONE!
I am able to experience feeling sad when something is sad and I don't have it any longer than "normal." I am dealing with a somewhat elevated self on a longer basis than may be good, but I am sleeping well and overall I am pleased. The only thing I hate is that I didn't do this 25 effing years ago...dear God the pain and suffering I have endured just cause I was too down and ashamed to seek out help. Not to mention the pain and suffering I have caused. Ugh. BUT today is a new day and life is here for me to live and move forward...DONT LOOK BACK! |

I'm happy. I got good news today. I don't have to go back to my oncologist, ever. woohoo. I've been released. The mass near my kidney hasn't grown or done anything over the past 4 years, so it's just there.

Completely losing hope, nearly ready to give up.
It seems like it takes forever to find the right combination of medicine. I thought I found it but I guess not. Maybe there's not one out there for me. I feel so depressed right now, I wish I wasn't alive.

Feeling off balance and dizzy at times. I think it may be the Zoloft my pdoc added the other day. I'm on day 3 of 25mg, bumping up to 50mg on Wednesday. I really hate this feeling.

The right combo is out there for you. I'm new to the med thing, but I know how frustrating it is to be taking meds and only getting side effects and none of the benefits. Hang in there and I know you'll find something!

Med-taking got scattershot the last couple of weeks (upheaval of move, forgetting), then right down to the wire. Refilled one, still waiting on authorization for refill of other (since Tuesday). Results of not having it haven't been good. (Depression and break through squirrely behavior showing.)
Financial anxiety. Not helped by someone holding money that is rightfully mine. And being a total as*hat on top of it, in bs "reasoning" (each one more ridiculous and bizarre than the last) for refusing to hand it over. Throw in outrageous behavior for icing on the cake. Having moments of functioning, but not to the level needed. This SHOULD be such a good time for so many reasons...
