Feeling really "blah" today. I really hate my job and I want to quit so bad but I can't afford to right now. Plus, I need the health insurance. I'm taking a super long lunch today, because I can. I have a meeting later that I'll go to, but from now until then, I'm doing nothing. I'm doing just enough work to not get fired. Is that so wrong?

Oh. My. Goodness. If I could have slaughtered a few kids today... I would have.

So we did breathing exercises for the last part of the day.

I'm still feeling like a stress-bucket.

Feeling really bad. Still ready to give up, wish pdoc appointment was now. Having a hard time dealing with this, I was already depressed now on top of that I'm stressed because I don't think I'll ever get a job which scares me. Really just having a lot of self hatred right now, not wanting to wake up in the morning. Thursday needs to come here quicker.

I've been a little depressed lately and today I started on Latuda. It's supposed to be the new "rave". I hope it helps

Depression is gone since the AD.
Still having the racing thoughts, exaggerated self image....until I look in the mirror and go...oh look, its just "me"...ugh. I don't have much money to spend or I would surely be posting about all the stuff I bought. Now I get my shoppers high at the grocery store in stead of the department store.

I want to quit!!!

Not my job though. I just want to quit from everything and go away and hide for a few weeks.

Me too, except my job is included.

I'm in a "I hate my life" mood. It's been heading this way for a while now. I want to quit my job but I need the money and health insurance. My husband is starting a new job in a couple weeks, but it's not enough of a pay increase to quit my job. I've applied for other jobs but I'm not getting any call-backs.

I feel trapped.

I think I feel better this morning. The day will tell the tale.
My boyfriend and I were still emailing, even though we broke up (about 5 times). (He lives in the US and I live in Canada). I broke it off for good last night, and now I feel better.
I hope the calm lasts.

Hi,

I'm new here so I apologize if I'm not doing this right.

You asked how I'm doing today... if you were family I'd tell you I'm "fine", but I'm not. I'm struggling again today.

I've decided. I'm just plain sad about breaking up with my boyfriend. Not much else is going on mood-wise. And sad is ok for now. It'll pass.

Stuck in a constant loop and pattern of sleeping late and waking up late.

This life seems so pointless.

Still down, but that's to be expected. My depressive episodes always last weeks and this one is just starting. Guess I need to start looking for a therapist.

I feel ok today. I only took one Geodon last night. So I'm kinda surprised I feel ok. My pdoc never called me back yesterday to tell me how to come off it, so I'm going to call him back today, and if he doesn't call me back, I guess I'll just wing it. lol.

Monday I broke up with my boyfriend (again) and I felt really sad. I took 2 sleeping pills (my original dose, now cut down to 1) so I could sleep all night, and I woke up at 1 am. I was weepy all day yesterday.
I feel so much better today, calm. I know I did the right thing.

Getting worried about my AD. Could just be my irratic sleep patterns. My T said we humans are just not meant to sleep in daylight and work in darkness.
My dreams are getting vivid again; sometimes "normal" and sometimes bizarre. I dont much care for the bizarre dreams.
And I don't know if its the BP thing that gives me a heightened 6th sense or if its just natural, but damn, my body reacts to a stressful event even before I have experienced it. It happened again yesterday. I was all in a funk...felt like I had a fever, was nervous, had the shakes, couldn't sleep...and lo and behold if I don't get one of the most stressful phone calls I have had in months right as my head started hurting too. Then after it was done, I was exhausted, short of breath, and couldn't get enough sleep.
So that was my day yesterday honey, how was yours? Hee hee.
