Hey guys!
How are you feeling today? I'm feeling slightly better though not completely 100% i'm afraid. But one step at a time.
Are you all doing good?

High 5 you're really awesome for touching base.

Well, on some level I am glad that you're feeling slightly better, even if it's not 100% hang in there.

Yeah I'm good today.

Thank you for asking.

I could be a lot better, these next two weeks are going to be pushing me. Had to get my lithium levels checked today and have to see my Pdoc on Thursday.

And I appreciate you asking every day, but I am unsure where to post when the old threads keep becoming active. Do you think you could make this like the check in threads and such?

I'm sorry to hear you're unwell. Keep going on, it will get better.
Yes, i hear my threads are becoming a bit of a problem because they keep getting active and such. Maybe a weekly "How was your week?" would be better? I do appreciate advice. I just wanted to create a smaller thread than the daily check ins because the daily check ins get so much attention that all the answers blur together and i feel like people don't get the encouragement they need there 'cause they're so many voices to drown them out. I answer to every single person who posts on my 'how are you feeling today?' threads to encourage them or give them as much advice as i can. But i really do appreciate thoughts on this thread, it's a new project i'm trying out so i really would appreciate your ideas for it. It should be a group project/idea after all.

I'm having a good day. Husband and daughter out of town, so I have the entire apartment to myself. Yea! Lots of free time now to get some work done. Only problem is that I'm stuck on a certain aspect of the novel I'd like to begin while they're gone. I really wanted to jump start it while I have more time. But I don't know if that's going to happen now.

Still feeling bad about hopping back on the anger wagon last week.

I am having another good day. Washed the curtains in the living-room. They were filthy and it almost gave me an allergy-attack just to go near them! Realized I have to sew some new pillow-covers, so I have been digging through some old sheets that I can use. It is so wonderful to feel like myself again! I just have to not get too carried away, and end up hypomanic!

I'm feeling pretty good. I was worried that my fatigue from Topamax dose increase was going to last a long time but it seems to have passed for the most part today.

Getting a massage in about 1/2 hour, so psyched about that! Just not happy about my continuing inability to find the type of job I want but reminding myself that I'm doing the best I can at finding one.

Always interesting to hear how people take to new medication. Glad to hear that the fatigue is wearing away. Sounds great with a massage! And concerning finding the right kind of job, it`s complicated! But sounds like you are out there trying, and that in itself is a great thing.

Disappointed. Girls night out gone wrong. I never go out. I never have time, but since hubs and daughter are out of town I was actually able to go out with my friends last night. For whatever reason we thought it would be fun to go to a strip club. Bad idea. I have never felt more uncomfortable or sleazy. Seriously, took a shower when I got home at 2:30 in the morning. I did not have a good time at all.

I just wanted to go out dancing or something!

Not get stranger boobies in my face.

Sigh.

And I don't consider myself a prude or anything.

I just didn't find it fun at all.

My friends had a good time though at least.
