Kind having a rough time today. My son is staying with family. I don't know why, but when he is gone my anxiety is worse. Plus when he is gone I want to do more things than are humanly possible to do in the period of time he is gone. I end up feeling guilty.

Nearly had a meltdown in the grocery store just now. Times are rough financially, and I only had $40 to feed my son and I this week. I should just be happy I had $40.

Have a headache and a tooth ache. Having a lot of anxiety today, wrote a chain analysis on it, they're actually hard to do, they kind of frustrate me cause I have to analyze what is.causing my anxiety even it comes out of nowhere, blah DBT homework for my individual therapy sessions, I already do diary cards and vendiagrams (sp?) I feel like I'm in school all over again, and I hate homework, but have to do it anyways. Don't get me wrong, I like.DBT, I'm just venting about the addition of more.homework on top of what I already have, plus working on my skills. Well how will I learn if I don't do it? That is what I always ask myself.

Cooler weather here, more Autumn like yay, my favorite season! And my favorite month of the year, hence the fact October is in my user name, besides being born in this month. Positive thoughts for the day, yay Fall weather, yay Autumn, and yay October!!!

Pretty good day today. Got my nails done and made a delicious lasagna for dinner. Helped husband fix the stairs to the garage. Got a good walk and a nap in. The garage and car is now clean.

I'm ready for the cooler weather. I now have jeans and shoes that fit, plus some new tops. I just need some new leggings and socks.

Slept a lot today (due to shoulder injury flare up, not a medication problem). Feeling better enough, so I'm trying to stay busy while I'm awake.

All is well after a trying day. My daughter is visiting a new friend. My mother is sleeping for now. She moved the controller to the TV somewhere. I think I should read instead.

Fell asleep last night before I took my meds...I know one missed dose isn't the end of the world I just hate when I do that. Today should be a quiet day...need to get some cleaning done, nothing else planned

Went to the range with my husband and son yesterday. I just went to be with them I didn't do any shooting. It was boring just sitting there being a third wheel but at least I got to spend time with them.

The place was so far out into the boondocks that I could never find it again without my son taking me there. Miles and miles of gravel roads. I bet it was 6 to 7 miles to any road other than gravel. No cell phone service.

I kept thinking if I had the money I would move there. Then I would be away from people and couldn't bother anyone if I had a manic episode. Hope I win the lottery because I am going to move so far out that nobody could possibly see me manic again.

Another quiet day. Husband thinks I'm feeling down, but it's hard to tell. I just feel tired and I take a nap, or try to. I don't know.

Really nervous about going to the place.that does.neuro-psych testing tomorrow and seeing if it is the one that did my testing. I'm 99.999 percent sure it isn't the right on based on the business card, but my Dads Gf recognized the outside of.the building, went inside and recognized the inside of the building, and I think the waiting room too. But here's the catch, it's on the second floor.of.the building, and I remember it being on the first floor of the building, that's why I'm so.sure it isn't the right place, but still going tomorrow incase it is the correct place, but I'm pretty sure it isn't. But a lot of anxiety over it, mostly cause I'm getting frustrated that I was never sent the report in the first place, and I accidentally threw.out the business.card for the place.I went to, so my report is either gone forever or stuck in limbo. But they're are the only ones that do neuro-psych testing in the area I was taken to, and the road.it was on. So I don't know, I really don't, I'm probably going to have to get new testing done, and idk if my insurance will cover any of it (it did last time, 6 units, same insurance company in 2012 before I was put on my Dads insurance, that I have now, cause I just changed insurance back to the one I was on before last month). But if they no longer cover anything, then I don't know how I'm going to pay for new testing, my Dads Gf says there are charities that may help pay, but idk how to look into that. Ugh it's so frustrating...

As ever gaining strength and using it against myself.

I absolutely hate stability.

At least anxiety and depression you can fight and win. Nothing is worse than being immobilised by an invisible, completely irrational force. No delusional thoughts you can and eventually will falsify. Just being completely and utterly stuck. I can't even hurt myself (more). It's far worse than pain. Just surviving and hoping this complete nothingness will end.

Mania kills cells. Brain cells die. Memories become more reduced conceptually, making more efficient use of limited means. Memories shape our reality.

It causes instability, changeability. Fearing that will leave an emptiness between pain and joy and a greater divide.

That sounds really nice. I'd love to move to an island and just sit on a beach all day.

Uggg Monday mornings are rough for me. Managed to get myself up and to work on time. Now I just need to get through this day lol. I actually feel pretty good now that I'm here. Lied knows I have plenty to do. I've missed so much work I'll never get caught up. When I'm gone no one else covers my work so it's always waiting on me when I get back.

Today was kind of rough. Lots of anxiety. Went to T and almost fell asleep, then came home and couldn't take a nap. Just kind of frustrating.

Really irritatable today. Bit my tongue all to peices trying to contain the retorts. I really just want to be left alone today, don't want to mess about with the petty things of life. Want to tell mum to get her own food. Fortunately she told me all she wants for dinner is chili, I can handle that. But she decided this was the day to cut back the flowers and other outdoor crap. She's 88 so I bite my tongue and humor her. I just want to watch tv and cut the rest of the world out today.....but living with others means making nice no matter how I feel.
