Those situations are never fun to go through and I know that from experience I am 53 and right now going through the same thing as far as having very little money for the next few weeks. I think that is why I got a dog, to help keep my mind on something when I can't go fishing and maybe help me stay a bit more active. Maybe if you have a creative skill you can work on that until you are able to get out and about again.

Trying to get out but have zero motivation. Nothing to do at my house since cable is suspended but then again always had a hard time watching tv. Maybe with my furniture moved around I can get into some shows.
Been thinking about my friends wedding and how I don't want to go alone. I've never had a wedding date and it makes me feel low. It should give me motivation to hit the gym but all I'm doing is lying down watching the ceiling. I did take some painkillers and have to cut myself out of it. I'd love to have some when I'm really in pain and can't get a doctor. I got an appointment with my pdoc in couple hours. She did warn me I'd feel low but it sucks. I hope this new medicine works fast

Hi I'm new and this is my first post. Don't know how to navigate around. Took me a week to find the bipolar forum. Anyway, there were so many things in your post that describe me. I am married but am on disability and I sit alone day after day. Only see my husband about 1.5 hrs a day except weekends. Ever since Facebook came around that is my only contact with the outside world. The only one who calls me is my mom and my step daughter. My own daughters rarely call me or see me. My sister the nurse and my brother the doctor don't even call me. I guess I'm just trying to let you know I understand your loneliness. I don't know if it's appropriate to give advice just provide info about me. About 3 years ago I was also working out but at home. That lasted about 2 years. Then I got into reading books. Didn't last long. Next was knitting. Well you can guess what happened to that. I also have lupus and smashed up discs in my back. The Dr. said working out would help my back. The pdoc said it would help my head. So easy for them to tell us what to do when you don't even want to get out of bed in the morning. Now to meds...I was taken off depakote last Feb. Developed neuroleptic malignant syndrome. Went with no psyc meds for a couple of months. I was a basket case. Went almost 4 to 5 months till I reached a therapeutic dose. I can also relate to your financial situation. Won't bore you with details. I think I'm rambling so I better quit while I'm ahead. To sum up this dissertation, I guess we're not alone with out feelings.

Today was bad. Half way through my shift at my second job I was thinking what's the point I want to die. I kept on saying in my head I want to die. I'm safe I'm not gonna self harm but I hate feeling this way. When are these Meds going to take effect. I feel I have been on a rollercoaster ride feeling neutral then low. I just want the pain to stop.
I want to live and experience life. I don't know exactly what I'm asking for, someone to listen or say something to cheer me up. I would like someone to motivate me to live instead of just living under my blanket.

These are real struggles. And I can relate to most of them.
It's possible to lose weight...because over the course of the year I lost almost 30 pounds. I know you can do it too. But the truth is, that your weight shouldn't define how much you love yourself. You're more than your waist size. Loving yourself is a difficult thing to master, especially when you have a mental disorder and a dysfunctional or abusive up bringing. While you're losing weight, try to focus on loving yourself too. What I did was write a letter to myself about my plans for weight loss and how I wanted to feel about myself. Then put the letter away somewhere. I actually found it recently and when I read it I actually cried because it was so encouraging and loving, and reminded me that losing weight was more about me liking myself than being that attractive skinny girl.

Felt better today. Not a sense of doom. Wanted to get much done and hit the gym but worked 18 hrs between both jobs. Not even tired right now. Feet ache but I can stay up. Better not though gotta be up in five hours. At least it is a short day for me and I get done at 2. We are doing a potluck at work and I just got all the ingredients plus some food shopping for me. 5.99 Snapple gotta stock up. I'm making French toast crock pot casserole. My crockpot skills are up to the challenge.
