Sitting in my car at lunch...boring but I have to get away from desk for an hour. I'll go back in at quarter till to eat my leftovers. I'm feeling pretty good today. I got my taxes in the mail and a copy to bankruptcy treasurer so I don't have that hanging over my head anymore. I really let that go for to long and treasurer was threatening to take me to court. I really need to work on my procrastination issues, but I seem to let things go until it gets me in trouble. Maybe some day I'll learn. I just get overwhelmed easily and freeze up and do nothing. Hugs to everyone!!

I'm really depressed and anxious today. I had been doing comparatively well for 3 weeks. I sincerely hope I'm not spiraling down into **** again. Do you think maybe it's just adjusting to my daughter being gone and my friend passing away so suddenly? Having some SI but nothing I can't handle at this point. Just really, really low. I guess medication can't protect you from the bumps and bruises in life.

Jennifer, just because the depression might be situational doesn't make it non serious. Take care and practice all the coping technics you have, didn't be afraid to seek help if you need it.

I just found out I've been doing something wrong at work and it's kind of a big deal. I hope I don't get fired over this!!

Quiet day today. The muscle relaxer seems to be okay, but I stopped taking some of the Vistaril so I wouldn't get groggy. I'm thinking that's why I'm jittery now.
Did five loads of laundry. Dinner is ready. |

I'm still a bit overwhelmed with everything that I need to do. I made myself write a list so that I can calm down and know what needs to be done. That helped me focus a bit. Baby steps to feeling better I guess.

I wish Klonopin slowed my thoughts down, like it does for a lot of people, but it won't. It seems like there's nothing much I can really do, and I am afraid of medication changes, but it looks like that's what's going to happen. Either that, or upping my pills and feeling miserable from the side effects.

I talked to my son today, he's still delusional and begging to get out. He's also convinced he doesn't have real mental health issues. Not good news but at least he's there getting "some" help.

Good start to the day, walked for an hour with a friend, weeded front garden, showered and now debating what to do rest of the day. I feel even and okay. Only niggling anxiety is back to work Monday but trying hard to ignore it.
Hugs to all struggling

Mum keeps talking about the fair, trying to get me to go to the fair. She's not going but wants to, she says she can't walk far enough. I don't really want to go alone, never been to a fair on my own before. Seems kind of pathetic.

I planned a pizza and ice cream party for this weekend and invited my sister and nephews as a way to get our minds off of all the stress were facing. My sister just cancelled on me. I was already feeling low, and this just doesn't help.

Rapid cycling is a *****. I knew I was going to crash hard based on how high I was yesterday but I didn't think it would be so swift and deep. I feel horribly depressed today. All I want to do is take trazadone and go to bed. But I made plans with my old high school friends. I can't cancel. I mean I could but I'd feel awful about it. It might be better for me to go anyway. That way I'm not stewing in my negative thoughts all night.
I'm going out tomorrow night too but I'm actually excited for that. I just hope I'm not a drag. Starting the depakote Sunday. I want to have one last night of drinking before I have to go alcohol free. I've been drinking every weekend for about a year and a half now, not having alcohol will be odd. But it's better for my overall health, I guess. Maybe I'll actually lose weight bc I won't be drinking 2000 calories every Friday and Saturday. Damn depression. Sucks.

I'm approaching a manic episode, I can just feel it. My energy is increasing and my need for sleep is dwindling. Plus I feel amazing! Crazy since I was just in a depressive episode for a few weeks. Usually I don't cycle this fast. But I'm going to take advantage of my mania and finally wash my car. I haven't went anywhere in weeks and it really needs a deep cleaning. Other than that, I plan on reading a few books I've been meaning to get to and cleaning up my room, possibly rearranging it. I need to plan that out before I do it though.

Bought a $425 outboard motor on Craigslist that just doesn't run right. Being surprisingly rational about it. If my wife hadn't interfered, I would have bought the right one in the first place. Have learned a valuable lesson here, probably worth more than the $425 wasted on the motor. I must be getting better.

Unbelievable. I took 200mg of trazadone plus my herbs and I still can't sleep. I don't get it. And I was depressed today. But I went out with some old friends and then talked to a new friend for awhile so I'm feeling better. but I do want to sleep. Like a lot.

Been feeling fine today. Very steady mood. Which I am glad for as there is so much tension in me right now. Depression has been trying to take me though and I am determined not to let it happen. I've still had those thoughts where I am unsure of myself. Do I want to go to college over there where I've been doing research or stay here and get a car? I feel like both are good options.

Lots of tears and panic attacks going on right now. Have taken some Valium and doing my Daily Calm meditation but it's not yet working. I know why it's happening so I have some insight but that isn't helping me stop it. I honestly feel like a loser right now with nothing significant to contribute.
I know a lot of us are struggling here and I'm sending out a big group hug.
