I am over thinking everything... yesterday ended up super bad. I just need a calm day! I am going from crying to laughing and feeling overwhelmed with everything.

Had good day-used some of my coping skills today with some anxiety issues & did not have a panic attack. Talked to my daughter on the phone for a bit & helped my husband cook breakfast.

I have been told I am trying to do too much too fast. Try living on next to nothing and see how long before you have to get work.

Net result is I'm ready to throw in the towel and give up. I hate being alive

Awful, for real. The night I sort of overdosed, I left my contact in, and my eye got infected. I'm tired and dizzy and can't do anything.

I'm doing well. I slept all night.

I have a warm dog at my feet.

Life is good.

I am over-thinking everything that happened this last week. Walking around the house having angry conversations with invisible people. It has been hard to keep my thoughts quieted. Just had more stress then usual this last few days and it is revving me up a bit. I am taking a calm day today to relax and trying to use my tools. It is good to have a day completely off.

Slept in this morning-a rarity for me. Fixed breakfast & played with the cat. My mood is just kind of hovering between OK & a little down. Did my exercises & meditation which made me feel better.

Your words are so....well they have so much impact. It has been so long since I've put my needs first that I almost forget how to

And such is life:
After a long spell of very good days, yesterday I had a rough patch. Anxious, worried, and ruminating all day. And really couldn't tell you why.

I tried taking some zyprexa, but it didn't seem to touch it. I felt like I was going to crawl out of my skin.

This morning I feel nervous. Glad it is the start of a new week. I need to remember the bipolar mantra: this too shall pass.

I am drifting
In a cloud of nothingness
With no goals
No targets
No sense of being
Just drifting with the tides of life

Today is a blue day. Yesterday was a black day. I'm waiting for a red day to pop up again. I like the red days the best. I guess winter is finally here.

My moods have been all over the place today-I hate that. I thought getting the decorations up would help but that seems to have made it worse-feel a bit better after having a big ugly cry-tired, down, depression seems to be moving in on me-don't see my tdoc til Thursday. I did a lot today though-exercised & did my mindfulness meditation & some cooking but it's like the anxiety & depression are having a battle right now to see which one wins.

Almost became physically voilent tonight due to severe manic episode/triggered by extreme anger.
Took my meds and isolated myself and was able to keep it (somewhat) under control.

Went to see Psych nurse today. They are recommending increase in Lactimal. She did commend me on using my coping strategies which was nice.

Was up late last night strategizing about debt repayment. So tired today, extremely droopy eyes at work.

Doing good mood wise. Have a therapy appointment tomorrow to try to deal with the cancer diagnosis. I'm numb and have been for a few weeks now. I don't know if I'm going to be able to afford all this stuff, but I have no choice.

Taking a risk and putting myself out there, by applying for jobs. Feeling motivated! Being depressed for over 6 months and leaving Uni and work I have put on so much weight ! I need to change that, starting to feel ugly these days!

Hope everyone has a wonderful night. Goodnight people or good day depending on whose reading this.

After having my mood swinging around yesterday I decided just to have a laid back day-it felt good to just kind of "be" today.
