I keep a mood tracker called T2 Mood Tracker. It has a diary too. It was developed by the US government for veterans. It works really well. You can look at the mood graph and then check the diary to see what was going on that day. Unfortunately I quit using it for 2 months so I have a long straight line in the middle of my chart. But if you use it every day or even once a week it gives you a really good picture of what's going on with you. It's an app on my Android phone. I'm sure that the iPhone has it too.

I just can't find the energy to do anything except watch TV. I have lots to do but can't do any of it.

Ever have a feeling inside that you really want to destroy something but the only thing you feel like is pathetic enough to destroy is yourself? So you do things that only end up hurting yourself (sometimes physical harm but usually little self destructive behaviors) and the thing is, you know it's going to hurt but you do it anyway. It's almost like you want bad feelings cause it's the only emotion you can handle. Why is it so hard to feel happy? Why does happiness for longer than a half hour make me so uncomfortable? I feel inspired to make a playlist about feeling this way. It's going to be a good one.

I have been feeling like myself for the past 3 days. It's a huge relief. Laying down the foundations for getting my life back in order. I have my doctor's appt on Wednesday and I'll find out what my bloodwork is like then. I'm a little concerned about hyperthyroidism since I've lost 10 lbs in the last 6 months, but I broke my arm in October and with the depression, my appetite and motivation to eat has not been so great.
I'm very hopeful and grateful for all the support I get here. This last mixed episode was so strange and I always marvel when I come out of them or the depressions how its almost like I can't relate to that creature that I become when I'm in them. Going to the beach with my Mom, son and friend's family today. It will be good to actually do something fun and WANT to! That's what I missed. The desire to do what I enjoy. Glad it's back and I want you all to know that the darkness DOES NOT LAST FOREVER. Though it's hard to believe it when your down in it.

I think I've been having a mixed episode lately. I feel very anxious right now. I feel like I'm having an anxiety attack.

I feel like I hate everything right now. I don't want to get up I don't want to sleep. I hate my birthdays. They are nothing but a reminder of how unimportant I am to everyone. Specially my wife...

Got a perm and love it. I feel pretty for the first time in forever. And I've been exercising which increases that feeling. I'm defiantly in an up. Here's to hoping minimal to no crash. Have first appointment with psychiatrist on the 21st and maybe it'll happen before I crash.

Today has been productive. I'm going to California for Coachella on Thursday, so today i packed up most of my stuff to get ready. I visited my dad, who is very depressed and crying, so i wanted to check on him. I went for a run by the ocean. Did a few errands, and now i'm home. I have a bunch of articles i need to read for work. I'm in a competition to try to get a research project funded, so i'm doing lit review, and i'm in a study group once a month, which meets tomorrow, so i have to do all my reading for that. I have my energy back for the most part, and i'm feeling pretty good and balanced today. I'm counting down the days until my trip... 3 more work days and i can go!

Had a horror few days again, that time of the month, but got through it without going inpatient. The OCD was out of control, I was obsessional about going crazy, not realising that it was a symptom, that sent me crazy! Im glad I am out the other end. I have a lot of "whats the point" thoughts but just one foot infront of the other doing everything I need to do as I have done the last few days.
Being really aware of my mental filter, only letting in quality information. Sometimes I just want to veg out and obsorb crap into my brain so I let myself have a few minutes a day "off". The house looks like a bomb hit it after the weekend, so a whole lot of cleaning ahead of me. Im going to take it easy and get through it at my own pace. Today was supposed to be my "rest" day after such a full on week last week, I wanted to recuperate. Trying to link the two... Cleaning is self care, which is a good way to recuperate... Thats what Im telling myself. Getting there one thing at a time. I will get through this day despite the "I dont want to do this (life) anymore" and "This is way too hard" thoughts. |
