I love it! I lost my i-j-?-L-M for a similar reason. (? equals lost tab). Can't even find it to fix it. It has been very challenging to learn to type out sentences without using that "letter of the ABC" but as you can tell, it can be done! Once in a while if I type the word just right with the "C" I can get the spelling program to correct it.

I'm feeling like I can cope tonight, so I'm nursing myself back to health and looking after me. My hospital admission had me referred back to the access and crisis team and I have an app with new consultant next week. I also have a GP app booked for tomorrow due to my self harm relapse and anxiety attacks.

In addition... I also have an app for an STI screening tomorrow evening due to my stupid manic decisions over the Christmas period. Sigh. I feel like I'm 15 all over again. How embarrassing.

I was overwhelmed and scared early in the day (I lost my job several weeks ago due to budget cuts). Also, my 10.5 year-old daughter was just evaluated by psychiatrist for OCD/ADD. Yep, she has both. She gets it from both sides of my family and my husband's family. Thank God she hasn't shown signs of bipolar yet (praying she doesn't). I feel SO GUILTY for passing my brain chemistry on to her. Watching her struggle the way I have for so long breaks my heart.

Sigh. True. I try to be pretty calm and collected…. and it was going so well I almost wrote yesterday about it. With how well it'd been going for a bit (and aided by the shortness of my memory), I was starting to feel freakishly "normal".
Then the scissors went flying through the air.
Square one.
I don't even really remember, except hearing things hitting the floor. I promptly managed to step away for a breather, but the illusion (delusion?) was already shattered.

Not that it's much unto itself. Still. Otherwise, the usual mix of the good the bad and the ugly. Financial stress out the yingyang. Trying to not get baited by a relentlessly abusive beotch at work while patiently awaiting the great cosmic smackdown of her loathesome *ss. Bureaucratic overwhelm outside of work. Other than those, good.

Super relaxed and mellow tonight. Stressful day today though. Socialising is exhausting. A solid 4 for me.

I know I shouldn't (and always regret) drink alcohol but I really could use a nice glass of wine right now. I'm a light weight ... One glass will knock me out. Just been going non-stop for too many days and working late going in on days off and ugh I'm just frazzled. Time for hot tub and glass of Cab.

I'm doing well. I was suicidal just a few weeks ago and spent a week in a psychiatric hospital. My meds were adjusted and I have been going to therapy twice a week. I am lucky enough to work remotely so I have been home for almost 3 weeks. I am going back into the office tomorrow and I am looking forward to getting back into the swing of things.

All over the freaking place. I'm mixed, but can't really do anything about it. I'm over all this crap and the mental health system being so back logged.

I think I'm getting better at managing my emotions. Had a meeting at work today and people were getting very upset and argumentative... I kept my mouth shut and when it started bothering me I "went to the restroom" to get away from it. Not always easy to remove ourselves from high stress environment but I'm learning to shut up and ignore conversations. I think the trick is to try not to care too much. We can't fix all the stupidity around us and need to let it go.

my own brother's offered to get me a valentines card- not really sure how to feel about that

good because i'm gonna get one, but bad and depressed because i've fallen so low i don't have anyone and have to rely on someone in my own family. hmm

in other news, i'm totally annoyed at the moderator of bipolar dream- she messaged me saying that the only reason my message didn't go through is because when a new member joins the list, they get placed on moderated status for 6 months. and i just sent an email back... half a year just to be trusted on a list?. what if you need urgent support?
missed emmerdale yesterday, so will be watching that in an hour or so

that's it really. another run of the mill day

The same. Housebound from my surgery, not showering, sleeping too much, depressed. When will winter be over?
Maybe I need a light box. Does anyone have good/bad experiences with them?

Under siege. Positively under siege. WTF, universe? Do you not see that I am already tottering on the financial and mental edge? I can't even say who lobbed the latest financial one, for in addition to despair, it's bringing on paranoia.

Cried (for another reason altogether) to sleep. Woke up middle of night and cried again. And again getting ready for work. Late. Work was….. Well... I came damn near to walking out. And feeling… well, again, cannot say. How would *that* bite me? If I really said how I was feeling. Still, not good to nevermind. Shouldn't write that either.
