but we'll see.

I am hoping to be okay at least until Christmas (another tough time)
Hi!

I'm so glad you've checked in! I've been wondering where you've been.
So sorry you've been so ill.
I hope you have fully recovered.

Autumn is my favorite season.

I made myself get up, shower and come to work, my brain is mush though, not sure how much I'll accomplish. It'll take a few days for my brain to reset after this last episode.

I'm having a pretty good day. My client at work gave me some gifts, so that lifted my mood considerably. That means I am taking good care of him and he likes me and appreciates me. These were small things that had to do with his past, one was a carved wooden figure he made and the others were a bunch of postcards he had received from fellow ham radio operators all over the country that he had been in touch with by way of his radio. I made sure he had a lot of other similar things at home before I accepted these. I did not want to be taking from him something with deep sentimental value. He gave me these things to show me about what he used to do.

Starting an autoimmune flare. I have a graduation party to attend on Saturday. I am having a birthday celebration for my mom on Sunday.
I feel like I've been hit by a truck. ( Pain.)

You've got a lot on your plate, I'll be thinking of you this weekend hoping everything goes as smoothly as possible.
Sorry you've had an AI flare, stress certainly doesn't help that. Take care. One moment, one day at a time

I'm missing a place I can't go to right now. I will be able to get there this weekend sometime, so I am happy about that, but sad I can't be there now. So I guess that is mixed feelings.

I'm so sorry WC! I hope you feel better soon and the flair does not last too long. (((Hugs)))

The extreme anxiety I was battling has passed......it was replaced with sickness which passed and now I'm in a low level depressed. I'm so glad the anxiety has improved.....I was really losing it. I started back on Wellbutrin today to combat this depression and I'm hopeful I will be feeling better soon. Lots of stress in my life but things have improved overall. Im grateful but scared it will all go to hell again.

Had an anxiety inducing afternoon. Threw in the towel and took .5 mg Ativan that both fam doc and psych nurse told me to take. (They're always in my purse but I never utilize them and I don't know why). Anyway after all that it did nothing.
Next time I'll take 1 mg as I know that has worked in the past. This is all a temporary bandage until I get my appt with psych in a month to discuss meds.

Hugs everyone and to those affected by Harvey

Anxiety today. The police department called me, leaving a message for me to call them back.

Three months ago I found $600 in the street and took it to the police dept on the off chance that the owner would ask there if it had been found. Well, nobody claimed it, so today they were contacting me to pick it up, it was now mine.

I was too afraid to call them back. It took me over an hour before I had the nerve to call back about it. Anyhow, I did. They were pleasant and I'm now $600 richer.

Since it was unexpected I'm going to donate some of it to the Harvey victims... and then do some work on my car.

Oh my god! If the police called me I'd probably freak out and leave the country. Never mind the fact that I'm a grey haired old lady that doesn't even have a parking ticket on my record.

Glad it worked out for you.

I managed to fold my laundry and get my first assignment done. my textbook didn't get here until 6pm today and my sister in law was here to hangout so I didn't start it till 9:15. I'm finally done. Hoping to sleep for a long time. I did decide to put on my emsam patch so hopefully I'll feel better soon. I have four more assignments to do before Monday at midnight.

Once again, I want to sleep and I'm tired but once I turn out my light and try, it's a no go. And my nurse or her secretary didn't call in the right amount for the trazadone so I can't take an extra. They only called in 30 100mg tabs, it was supposed to be 60.

Sigh...

Boy, I am sleepy and exhausted from the week. I slept most of the day today but need to do some clerical work for my classes. Then, I have to clean up the apartment because my dad is coming here. So, I have done nothing so far and will have to start working. I will be ok. The weather here was cool now hot again. I like the cool weather and hope fall comes soon.

Finally, someone has turned a dim light on and I feel the deep part of the depression lifting! I almost enjoyed hearing the birds sing this morning. I haven't felt any sense of enjoyment for a long time.

Up to my 12th out of 21 TMS sessions. Maybe it is beginning to help. Maybe it is the Zoloft I started on Wednesday. I think it is the Zoloft as I felt its effect almost immediately, and mild side effects too. With TMS it, apparently, generally kicks in at about 16 sessions so hopefully I will be out of this depression within a week and home in about 12 days when the treatment stops.

Today I am studying after my morning TMS and loads of sleep. I sleep 10 hours a night then often go back to bed at some point during the day for another 1-2 hours. I am exhausted. Tomorrow is Fathers Day here so I am looking forward to a day out of hospital with my family. My sister and I bought him Stevie Nicks and The Pretenders tickets for him and my Mum as a combined early Christmas present. Hope they like them.

Sending love and hugs through the ether to all who need some ...

Been away for a couple of weeks (longest time ever). Think I was hypo for a bunch of this summer (I hate summer, mind you), but it seems to have been taking a turn (heading into favorite season -- thanks, BP ) Meds have been an issue with double vision and dizziness (which causes wonky walking -- hello wall!) Need to call about that.

Currently in ER with BF (for him, herniated disc). So, so tired.

Hello again, everyone...
