I don't know. Everything feels like it's about to explode.

Music. I'm trying. I hope I can get up and go to class tomorrow, that will make me feel better.

I use essential oils to take off the edge. I put a drop of Lavender essential oil in a tissue and then inhale the Lavender and hold it in for a few seconds. I carry it in my pocket, and of course when no one is looking I take it out and take a sniff when needed. It seems to take the edge off when my mania is high and my anxiety.

I can relate! I feel like I'm barely holding on by a thread but I need to stay "normal" for the sake of work and my family. I feel like any little thing will throw me out of whack and I'm just waiting for something to happen and push me over.

Been in that boat for a month or so... I feel for you, I can finally let go tomorrow and just slip as far as I need to, because I'll be away from home and all my responisbilites, and I'll be ALONE!

I know how hard it is to hold on when you can't afford to fall, keep self soothing and make some time available in your schedule for you and just you.

I haven't worked in 6 years. I haven't worked since my first psychotic episode. But I'm just digging a deeper hole. I need to find a job. I have no money and no food. I just dug up enough pennies to get a donut ($1.05... yeah I know a donut but for 1.05 I wasn't about to get much more)

I want to stay in school but I have no help. I don't even know if I'm ABLE to work, with my luck I'll actually find a job that will hire me but have a breakdown when I'm working.
