Pdoc appt went horrible today. It left me f_cking pissed off. Waste of a $20 copay.

I basically requested a medication change because I hate Seroquel. Nope. "Take more. You'll appreciate it more." F_cking really? Are you f_cking kidding me?

Therapist appt went horrible too

Not a good day, not one bit.

I took my oldest daughter 's kitten to the shelter. She did not want him anymore. I did not...I have a puppy. I pray he gets a good home. My younger daughter and I went out to eat. Then we went home and played cards. We're trying to find other things besides just watch tv. Yesterday we worked a word search.

I am extremely irritated. Lately, I feel I need to do whatever it takes to make use of this life I have been given. It has been a bad few years, and now I want to take back my life and do all the things I haven't done. I wish the people closest to me understood where I'm coming from lately. It's hard for me to cope with comments that put me down, just to be told that I'm being too sensitive. I just can't anymore. Rant over.

Finally saw my pdoc today after 8 days (he has been on holidays while I have been IP) and he dropped my Prozac (going hypomanic in a major way), put me on slow release Lithium, increased Ability, took me off Seroquel and reduced my Clonazepam. All good choices I think.

Today I have been extremely hypomanic. My mind is all over the place, I feel like I have a million pieces of a puzzle in my brain and if I can solve them i will have solved the unified field theory of physics. Yeh, I am on the crazy side. Med changes should calm me down. Just found out a best friend from high school/univerity died. I hadn't seen her in a few years but still loved her, yet I feel no response. No sadness...nothing. Must be the hypomania. Guess it will hit me later. At the funeral.

Finally was able to stay away from my tablet and phone last night. I'm not nearly as tired as I usually am in the morning. I really need to keep doing this. I would be so much more productive the following day.

Getting a little boost from Adderall. DH and I went to nearby city yesterday to run errands. Also walked a lot in the marketplace on a sunny, breezy Spring day.

911am and already got into a fight with my mother. don t know if it's her or me. she has pretty faulty thinking my whole life and just a host of other issues so I'm leaning towards her. but I feel bad at some things I said bringing up the past which I know she feels guilty about already.
It seems whenever I'm doing really good she has to find something to bring me down. bringing people down is her specialty but the thing is she doesn't even realize it.
sigh. sorry for the rant. I'm going back and forth in my head whether to sleep because I work tonight or just wing it. but that would mean 2 nights with no sleep which is a nono

Appt went well go back in 8 weeks and she is thinking we will go off trileptal and up Lamictal then, didn't want to mess with meds cause I was on last day of steroid and those can cause mood issues. She thinks the trileptal is causing all the concentration issues so I will be happy to ween off it, plus it will take me down to 3 meds from 4

My sons are leaving today on the school's music tour. The older plays clarinet; the younger plays bass clarinet. The older also will be singing with the advanced choir in a competition. He's always been a singer. I'm not surprised the director recruited him for this. I'll miss them. They don't get back until Monday night.

Having to rest today. Had done a lot of walking yesterday (aerobic pace). With CFS* (aka ME** and SEID***), there's an "exertional intolerance" and it takes extra time to recover from the exertion involved.

Fibromyalgia is also acting up big time, for the first time in a long time.

(I deal with several additional conditions, mostly autoimmune in nature.)

I try to accept it and pace myself. It can be challenging and disappointing.

I feel unusually "fragile" and am trying to distract myself from very depressed thoughts. I just feel like it's all an uphill battle (too often).

Tomorrow is another day, thankfully.

Feeling kind of blah today. My concentration sucks. Having strong urges to SH, which is something I haven't done in about 3 years or so.

Just got back from first therapy group meeting in a long time. We were just a few, it went okay. I'm glad I finally went today.

Nammu - I have that problem too. Bending over is definitely painful, and I have a cat who's begging for attention.

Did a load of laundry, worked on my poems. Had to lie down when the anxiety got bad. My pharmacy gave me the wrong prescription of Artane so I'll have to go back to the pdoc and have her resend it. Ugh. I should do this before school starts (May 15).

Other than that not much is happening.

You snorted Wellbutrin? Any particular reason? I would think that would burn a little.

well, I slept about 4 hours. Have a long day ahead of me with lots of study. Just hope my brain works. Mood mixed. Was hypo yesterday but went dark last night and almost ran from the IP facility I am in. So impulsive, agitated and irritable. Feel wired. Wish I could sleep but it is 6am here so need to get up and get into it...and I am not tired anyway. Had 15mg Diazepam and 2 mg of Clonazepam last night to calm me down but still couldn't sleep much. Feel such rage and wild. This is not good. Hopefully, I will calm down as the day passes.

Still have yet to process my friends death (yesterday) due to my moods but I guess that will come with time. Have waves of sadness then go happy/mixed again.
