I'm struggling. Can't sleep well even with medication. I may have cut off the wrong med. Maybe the problem is the Abilify. The doctor is gonna hafta fix this mess I'm sleeping 4 hrs. Interrupted. A lot of anxiety too. Too much.
Lithium was so good to me. Except the side effects. I wish to find something similar.

Doc's appt. went okay. Will see her in three months to reevaluate my blood sugar. I also told her about the pain in my right knee, and she thinks it's bursitis. So lots of Motrin for a couple of days. My labs looked good so that's a relief.
Finished my homework for my orientation class. Now need to write another poem for my other class. Dinner was good. Time to relax. |

I'm feeling pretty "off" today. Definitely not feeling as good as I have been feeling the past week. Almost like a high coming to an end. I'm so tired of mental illness and meds and life in general.

I can't stop having health anxiety. Some of it is legitimate, other stuff is just fear of things getting worse rather than better. The anxiety before bed related to how Seroquel sometimes doesn't make me feel too good, keeps entering my mind. I see my pdoc Thursday. Although I have more than enough medicine, I think the follow up is definitely overdue. My mood swings are still difficult, but I am just trying to get by and stay "positive," but people have a hard time realizing how it is a fight to try to have that approach.
Hugs to all who are in need of support here. |

I always feel bad when I write that I'm doing well here because I know so many others are suffering. I just want to tell anyone who is to hold on tight....relief will come. I started slipping badly around the end of November and just the past few weeks I've been improving. The last 5 days my depression has been gone. I can't believe it.....I never thought I'd recover after this last episode....I always think that I guess but this one felt the worst.....I knew my life was over and now it's not. It will happen for you too. I hope this lasts for me but even if it doesn't I'm just so grateful to have this time of peace and hope. (((Hugs to everyone)))

We went to a nice, expensive restaurant tonight and my daughter got in a snit and would not order anything (she is vegan) and sat there with her arms crossed not responding to questions. She made it really unpleasant for everyone. After dinner she apologized but my anger is just white hot. Now granted I've been irritated all day (hate everything) but I am so angry right now.

Well, I have finished studying for my exam, which is tomorrow (Thursday here). It is has been one hell of a semester with a 6 week IP stay in the middle. I am utterly exhausted and sleep almost 12 hours a night and am very slow in the mornings. My brain feels very dull ... dumb almost. Will make the exam hard going but I will get through with a pass I'm sure. Wish me luck!
My T was helpful today in explaining that my exhaustion is not depression but my brain and body recovering from two severe episodes close together (about 2 months apart). It could take a while to recover but I am determined to do so and stay stable for the remainder of the year. It will be great to have my exam over so I can rest, socialise, exercise, play guitar, read, take photos and catch up on a few things like dentists and car services. I am back to work also after two months off. Made a few mistakes but generally it went smoothly. I work two days a week. Sending hugs to all who need them. I will be back posting around here a lot more soon.

Good luck, Wander! I hate exams. Though I loved being free after they were over.
Anyway, dentist tomorrow. Have to get a filling refilled on a tooth that I had cracked when I was 13. Well, I had cracked multiple falling off my bike! Had to get a root canal on one of them way back. *sigh* The root canal tooth is fine though. I'm taking the day off just to chillax because I know my mouth is gonna hurt like a b_tch. I'm too sensitive to pain, and novocaine only works so well... This whole situation makes me anxious! |

pdoc appointment went well and follow up time increased. there are actual refill counts on my scripts now as well. Yay! OTOH, the longer I'm stable the more willing people are to recount my failings of ages past it seems. So I'm learning to apologize graciously, and own how I made them feel. Even if I can't really remember the events well....
I suppose that's a good thing as well, but it also feels sad.

Although it is stormy here it's beautiful day here too cause lower temperatures and rain...we need the rain.
I'm getting slightly irritated at all the family stuff...nothing bad they just want to talk all the time and I want my alone time. I want to have a day of complete solitude where I can get up when I feel like it, not put my hearing aids on, not get dressed and not see another human for the entire day, not eat if I don't want to or just snack. Solitude is greatly underrated.

Finished my homework for my poetry class. Now chilling out as the water drips in the home office. Roofers won't be available until next month. It's very difficult getting any home maintenance done this time of year; they're all just really busy.
Bought some cookies for a mid-morning snack to keep my blood sugar from falling so low. Unfortunately they're too good to leave alone. ![]() Anxiety rolled in around noon and is kicking around for a while. Had to take some extra Vistaril and get through it. I'll see the neurologist for my back tomorrow. I suspect they'll send me back to physical therapy again, but the therapist said there's not much more that he can do. So I don't know. |
