Not good. Jumped out of bed this morning from another one of those shock feelings and just feel terribly sick and incredibly anxious. Can't remember the last day I actually felt 'good' ... first it was the mental health issues, once those were almost stabilized then I was run down by severe anemia from slowly internally bleeding to death from my tumor, then the surgery, then the chemo, now something with my thyroid? I've honestly had enough. I don't even care what happens anymore, death has to be better than feeling like this all of the time.

I used to enjoy life, I had a career I somewhat liked, I traveled a lot, to places I really fell in love with, I surfed every chance that I could get in the water, worked on projects in the garage and generally looked forward to what each day would bring to me. Seems like those days are gone. I can't remember the last time I actually felt happy about my life, and with each day seems some more bad news about my health comes. If I'm going to get sick and die I wish it would just hurry up and happen, because I'm tired of feeling like this.

Doing well. Think I'm stable for now. I'm feeling some anger, but I think it stems from boredom and pms. I can't do much thanks to ankle injury. Getting an arm workout though thanks to crutches. Work tomorrow should be fun thanks to those crutches. I'm supposed to be sleeping, but not tired.

Feeling pretty good this morning. A little shell-shocked from my melt down the other day, but other than that, ok. See my doc today. Not sure what I should suggest, as far as meds. I sort of feel like just staying where I am. What could improve things? And I'm already sleeping too much as it is. I think I need to get started back with a tdoc. I'm missing the therapy. Do something about it!

Irritable. Wish I wasn't. Feel like I am more irritable since lowering Wellbutrin. Next step is to lower Prozac. Hmmm. Wish I was more positive at work today. I notice I'm more irritable on weekends bcuz I'm overwhelmed by housework and chores. Too much clutter and poor tidy up habits. Deep breaths.

I'm feeling pretty good, just a little tired. Today was my first day back to work after 2 weeks off, and it went well. I had a first date tonight, but i wasn't into him. I also need to stop seeing the other guy i'm dating because i mostly like riding around on his motorcycle, but he has no ambitions and i am pretty career focused, so it would never work. The third guy i'm dating is a guy i met on my vacation, but we live in different cities, so it makes it tough. I think he is going to come visit though. He is a lot older than me, but he is in great shape and we had a lot of fun together. So dating life has been a little complicated. I've done a few intense things for fun, but i'm feeling balanced and like i can handle a lot right now. It is a big improvement from this time last year.

I am here. Today I felt better, even think that I may be pulling out of my month long depression. I do hope this is the case. I just purchased another item from the Internet. It was so simple. Just log in, search on item, and click on the "1-Click" button, and it is immediately purchased. Too easy.

Doing well. Can tell ankle is starting to heal. Bruising keeps going down. Its hurting more now than it did. Another sign of healing that the things I over stretched are trying to pull back together. Mood has been stable. Bored, but stable.

I don't know if I'm bipolar but . . . After being pretty productive at work, I suddenly don't feel like it, am tired of picking up my co-worker's slack, and just want to go home. I'm restless and slightly agitated, and don't know what to do with myself.

Cymbalta, 60mg -- for the depression.

Adderall, 40mg XR & 5 mg reg -- for the ADD.
Xanax, .5 mg as needed -- for the anxiety.
Topamax, 50mg -- still figuring this one out.

MDD, but possibly have some form of Bipolar Disorder. Then again, I could be paranoid . . .

Well, at least I still have my sense of humor.

Got a new job today, and went into a panic attack. Trying to calm myself down with positive affirmations. I am capable of doing well. I am capable of working as a professional. It will be ok, it will be fun, interesting, and challenging in a positive way. And I will be just fine.
