I'm a little depressed today because I finished a book yesterday and don't have anything to do today. Also, my stomach been rather upset. Anxiety has been low so at least that is good.

Decent day. It seems my depression has mostly lifted. Still struggling with low energy though.

Trying very hard to move on with my life now that it appears my boyfriend has broken up with me without even telling me. Really thought maybe it would have worked out, but apparently I'm not good enough to even bother telling it's over. Didn't even see it coming this time

Could barely sleep last night, around noon I was so dizzy and tired went back to bed. Didn't sleep but still felt somewhat better for laying down for a couple hours

I actually had a great day. Despite having two meetings, I still got a lot of work done. And I caught up with the boss lady who I haven't talked to in a while since she is now the director and is super busy. Two thumbs up. Finally.

Saw my pdoc yesterday. She's switching me to lithium (from Abilify). Started on the lithium yesterday with no problems, but almost as soon as I took it tonight, I've been nauseous and in and out of the bathroom 5 or 6 times with diarrhea. It's not even a high dose (barely 300mg. We're working up to 1200 by the end of the month), but I'm very med-sensitive. I hope side effects don't get too much worse as the dose increases. That would suck.

Think I have a stomach bug so I'm not feeling all that well. Otherwise I'm a bit depressed.

Feeling a bit under the weather today. Spoke to my bf yesterday, which made me feel both better and worse. As if that make any sense. Doing mostly ok mood wise.

Doing ok. Trying to do stuff to better my fatigue. I haven't been good about taking my vitamin supplements my pdoc wants me to take. Really trying to remember to take them now vitamin D, B12, iron, and magnesum.

Kind of proud of myself that I've been reaching out to my parents for support this past week. My relationship with my bf is falling apart, so I've been talking to people for advice. It's really helping me not to slip into depression over it. So unlike me to reach out though.

I had my first official performance review at work today -- I was SUPER nervous all week thinking about it. Luckily it went well and I got some really nice praise and constructive feedback from my supervisor, so that put me in a good mood.

Other than that I've been feeling noticeably more paranoid lately -- like for example, I'll ash a cigarette in a trash can and then walk away only to return and double (sometimes triple) check the can to make sure the butt hasn't lit anything on fire (even though I always thoroughly snuff out any embers prior to disposing the butt). I've been having really weird dreams too, a couple nights ago I woke up and SWORE I saw some shadowy figures standing across my room and staring at me -- I think it may have been some sort of sleep paralysis thing, I don't know.

Thinking about maybe going to an AA meeting tomorrow after work just to keep my sobriety on the straight and narrow.

I can relate to the paronia. Especially about the cigarettes. I try to run mine under water. And the shadow figures.

Also have a thing about locks and alarm clocks.

Glad your review went well!

Been out of IP for two weeks now, back to work and doing well. Started off a bit hypomanic then fell flat now seem to be levelling out. Back to university in 10 days. Don't feel ready for the pressure but should do by then. Weather has been extremely hot here (up to 42`C, 106`F) with hot nights too. I have no air con so it has been draining but I do live 500m (1640 ft) from the beach so I have been going for a snorkel every morning which has helped immensely.

Saturday, no pressure to do anything...thankful for that

Today hasn't been too bad. I worked for a couple hours this morning. That sucked because it's my day off. Then just been alternating between relaxing and housework. I've been shooting for 15 minutes of housework per hour. I've been trying to focus on a few things I enjoy too. Today, that is watching panels from Supernatural conventions. May try cross-stitching for a bit later this evening.

Not feeling well today, stayed home, not depressed, just not feeling good

Have you guys heard about this yet?

Touched With Fire (national release date on 2/19/16) stars Katie Holmes

I'm just spreading the word here. It's supposed to be a bipolar film. The original post is in 'Books, Movies, Music and TV Talk' section.

Cue the music!

"doo doo doo doo do doo do
do do doo doo doo doo dooo doo ooh..."

Well, that's from another of her work. I haven't watched the trailer yet, let us know what you think. Oh, it has rather low rating on IMDB.

I'm so frustrated. Another day lost because I'm getting no where with my work. I hate this!! Sometimes I feel like quitting and getting SSDI. But I can't...I make a good salary, and have a good job that I like. Plus I support myself, I don't have anyone to fall back on. I just have these days where my focus is nonexistent. Luckily I have a meeting with the HR Director tomorrow to see how this can be accommodated since I technically have a disability. I hate to lose productivity like this. Last week I got so much done. And now...just a blank stare at the screen. Maybe it's the Lamictal idk....ever since I came back from PHP, my work has suffered.

[gina_re]

I thought I was over the "what's wrong with me?" part of my life, but I feel like I'm there again..

[hopeless2015]

Stayed home again literally slept the entire day away

I'm living. Trying to get doctor/medicine/cost/insurance figured out. Trying to keep anxiety low so I don't go into a depression state and then flip to manic. Taking it one step at a time.

[raspberrytorte]

Severly depressed. Trouble functioning. Haven't felt like this in three years. Going to have to force my way through work tomorrow. Calling pdoc.

To make things worse my laptop crashed tonight. Writing gone. My husband is bringing it to the apple store tomorrow, so hopefully they can get my **** off of it, or a lot of my writing will be gone. I can't even cry about this and I should be.
