I woke up feeling like crap. Headache, sore throat. Yesterday was so good, so stable but feeling generally good. Then I wake up feeling like this. It's hard to take care of myself when I don't feel well. It's harder to exercise, to eat right, to get the energy to move more than I have to.

end of whine.

When I awake like this I stay in bed longer. Postpone my coffee and am Meds. Just meditate on the feelings. Till they usually subside enough for me to feed the pets. Get coffee and breakfast for me and take my am Meds.

Sometimes if it's real bad I have a spoon of baking soda and an aspirin and go back to bed.

worse when my family feel like i do it on purpose

Ocean, I wish I could -- I have to get up at 7:30 to get my daughter off to school, but then I can go back to bed. I tend to lay there and ruminate. Maybe if I get coffee and drink it in bed it will be enough to have a decent start to the day.

Dolphin, that's exactly what happened! Yesterday I was all energetic, today not. Usually I volunteer at my daughter's school on Thursday mornings, but today I called and said I couldn't, and went to sleep after getting my dd off. Then up again to work. I still feel kind of crappy but will make myself go walking.

I so appreciate I can post my crap here, even if it's stupid crap. You all keep me sane.

How's everyone now? It's lunch time in CR! Got back from a great swim.
Lucky me. Do not have child responsibilities.

Well, I went to work, worked, went home and walked the neighbor's dog for 2.6 miles in the freezing cold, and then tried to find a series to begin binge watching. I found one, and my daughter came home from school and we watched it together. I'm back at work again, and looking forward to going home and having dinner with my family.

I'm not hypo. I honestly wish I was. I'm pretty sure I'm leveling out. It could also be the weather. For a good while it was lovely. Now it's turning nasty and snowy and cold.

I'm really trying to lose weight and be healthy. When I get depressed, exercising is one of the first things to go.

I think the Seraquel and the lorazepam are both effecting me. Make me feel like a starving refugee.
May lower the metabolism too.

You got a lot done. I don't see you as feeling sorry for yourself. We all have off days.
