Thanks Innerzone

I am doing ok today. Need to get up and do some outside things before I get sucked into the tv and computer.

I have had excess energy for about a month now and its gotten better since I got the mirena out. I have had full on days and besides the anxiety, its not been too much for me to handle.

Definitely not depressed but the anxiety gets me at times. Im guessing it'll take a few months til my hormones settle again.

Hope you're all well

First day back at work after my staycation with my nephew. Not bad, and even got some shopping done after I was done with work. It was a pretty productive day.

Had my first therapy visit in forever today. I love my therapist. I feel motivated to get to work with him. I now have a pdoc and a therapist. For the first time ever! I hope that this is the beginning of a new stage in my mental health .... I have needed a coordinated approach to all that ails me.

My knee surgery is Friday. I have to admit I'm more nervous about how I am going to handle this mentally, than I am about the actual surgery, rehab, or pain.

How lovely to read the positive

I am doing well so far, I have another busy day ahead but I do not feel overwhelmed by it which is great.

Im thinking I might do some baking today as thanks for a couple of people who have helped me.
Thanks for this!

I built up two shelves this morning without a powertool! It almost got me late for work, but I did it without any help. Now they are taking up more space because I haven't put anything in them yet...Heavy lifting tomorrow, and then a lot of reorganizing without a good planning..

I've been doing ok-ish and feeling safe right this moment.
Thanks for this!

Feeling a little down today. I feel useless that I can't do more. I wish I could be more productive. My husband works all day and I just feel like I don't contribute.

Mood is staying level. Now, if I could only get rid of the anxiety.

I seem to be hitting a bad patch.
I am trying hard not to slide
There is just so much noise
Whatever happened to quiet?

I was feeling down and unproductive when I posted earlier. Since then I walked a mile, did 2 loads of laundry and cooked supper. I am feeling a little better about myself now.

After reading a spiritual self-help book " The Power of Now ", authored by Eckhart Tolle, I increasingly let go of some reasons to get diagnosed.

Whether it be a possibility of Borderline Personality or Bipolar Disorder, I'm drained trying to detect the difference between both that might happen to me.

It's causing unnecessary leakage of my energy. I feel like I should learn to take care of myself since I'm a grown up. I have to learn to live by myself.

I got some new babies today! Very excited but the anxiety has been annoying all day.

I saw my pdoc and she said it was likely I would have a reaction after our session... yep I did! I had to put my babies in the field and they would not lead, so I had to carry them. Then they escaped out of the cage and I collapsed in exhaustion. Then I threw up for about 2 hours, crawling between the bath and the toilet! So yeah big reaction. I feel tons better now but still weak.

Mood is still good despite todays pdoc session, I feel like I am finally making progress

Fannnnntaaastic the past few days.

Hypo happy and getting stuff done. Annoying my partner a bit because he isn't quite used to hypo me, but he will get used to it. Getting prepared for school again and having my closing meeting with my old psychiatrist today.

Hit a bad trigger today, but fighting to hold onto this high.

Bah, I am grumpy, cranky, miserable, slipping and fighting demons
It makes me tired
Life is trying to push me down, but I am strong enough to kick its butt

Maybe I'm just paranoid, but I feel like I'm on the brink of having a bad episode of depression. Like it wouldn't take much but a little push to fall into the hole.

I'm like that in the opposite direction. I felt I was doing okay, riding the wave just the way I liked it for hours, and I thought a little bit of normalcy came back to me. As it turned out, it was my wishful thinking, it wasn't like I was derailing or anything but ,, I was jumping up and down like a 5 y/o kid, and the music didn't help. You won't believe how many cuss words one can put into one verse of a rap song. Then I thought someone should come up with "cussing contest" or it could be named "cussing bee"! I gotta google it up later.

I don't have any calming music with me, most of them are ,,Eminem's hardcore rap, he listen to cello and get mellow while he eats his jellos! And I get to listen to his ,,artistic talent.

I'm still not sure whether or not I'd better stay away from the internetz, it's time consuming for sure, but we all know that unless you're doing hopelessly time wasting things, most of the time, you can do smart things on the net, don't know what the point of all of this, ,...

I got loads of great ideas that I could do by myself to help myself, yet ,,,,,,,,,,hmmm

Well, this is life, man. Are we walking on a path, the rail track that was laid for you and you try to stay on it, or are we
creating everything in the direction that you wanna go, doing both laying things down and some more like painting/drawing pictures that you wanna see, (I'm a lone guy so no passengers on my train, remember that pls...),,and my train, it is going full speed ahead, lots of steam coming out of it and it seems heavy, inertia, I need a fine control of it.

I just stop my non sense here.

(.........and it doesn't stop there. Life's neither a competition nor a comparison, at least for me, so I can enjoy the ride. )

@Supernova (lovely usename, You're supernova, Eminem sings about it. Very scientifically romantic name. good for you.)



Now that's cleared out. I remember that about you now. *phew*..........

I'm sorry to hear that you weren't doing good yesterday and two babies, plural, what?

(I'm glad that I'm a man, so I don't wake up one day and be 9 months pregnant. )

Hope you're doing better.

I woke up anxious, so CBT for a while but it didnt work so I said "screw this! I dont deserve this" and took a tiny dose of ativan to help me along the morning without having to throw up every step.

So now that the anxiety is undercontrol I have checked and cuddled my goatie kids and horses, made it back to the house just in time for the rain to hit hard. Its only 9.30 am and I've finished work, horrid weather out. Thinking this is a self nurture day since I will be stuck inside.

Long *** post, no need to pay attention to me.

(What is this thread for? What does it say on #1? if someone can mention that in your posts here, I'd appreciate that..)

Possible trigger:


I'm gonna go get myself cleaned up. Y'all have a nice day/weekend.

Moon is fairly stable be there anxious is still challenging me, especially in the mornings. It is mid after before it starts to subside. It's keeping me from doing a lot of things so it really sucks.
