Agitation is gone?
Loaded me with ativan. Never used ativan for agitation before. Was gone in 2 days. What a relief.

Agitation from yesterday is down. Talked to T this afternoon so that helped. Might make dinner if kids aren't home. I have a flounder with shrimp stuffing recipe I want to try. We ate a late lunch, though, so it may be a while.

Early this morning I was awakened by a piece of ice that fell near the fan of the AC unit, making a god-awful racket as ice chips went everywhere. Sometimes it freezes when there's high humidity. I turned off the unit and ended up sleeping in quite a bit. Cats were going bonkers and no-one was anywhere to be found.

Other than that it's been quiet.

Want to eat copious amounts of sugar and then collapse. Other than that my mood is okay.

I was feeling speedy today, not intensely, but very driven with my writing. Tonight, I'm a little low. I know this is the wrong thread, but i really hope I get some like dbt very soon!!! (Tonight's mood likely circumstantial-discussing the tough choice of therapists with my husband. stressing :/ had to convince him of my choice, but now I'm doubting my choice. :/ Either choice would be good though. Maybe it is time for somethig new. Idunno. I'm gonna miss my old t though.)

i had a crying fit. Why do i keep breaking down??

My day went well. I didn’t get fired today, I was hoping for it lol. But no. Maybe next Friday. I’ve thought long and hard about the apartment. If I get fired and can collect unemployment I think I’m gonna go for it. Because with that income I’ll be able to afford it (barely) until I can get another job. I just have to get out of here, I have to.

I don’t think I was hypomanic today, just very very happy. What’s the difference anyway, right? Who cares. I’m tired of analyzing all my moods. I wish I could just accept the days as they come without wondering where I fall on the mood scale. Why can’t I just LIVE MY LIFE???

I’m trying.

I actually bought up this exact topic with my pdoc recently.

I feel like I’m split in two with one of me doing life and the other constantly looking over my shoulder micro-managing my moods.

She said that she hears this a lot and that unfortunately managing moods to maintain stability is harder for some than others.

I find maintaining a stable mood exhausting.

Still low this morning and tired too. My weight is lower, and the eating disorder part of my brain is happy about it, but I know logically that weighing 100 lb. (I'm 5'4" tall) is not healthy for me. I meant to walk this morning but skipped it, not so much because of the weight but because I had to get my husband up early for a meeting. Like usual, the darn ED part of my brain feels guilty about skipping exercise...sigh.

The day has come to tell my ex about her daughters pregnancy. My daughter is not doing the right thing by telling her mother herself. I am giving her a last chance to come with me to do this herself. I am dreading doing this to her mother. She already believes her daughter no longer trusts her. This is the first time in twenty years I have ever seen her cry. The last time is when her mother passed on in Mexico. So I will better repare her for this news before telling her. This is not a good situation at all for all of us concerned. I cannot permit her to go to Mexico, She would never be able to return here where her children are, and I would miss her greatly. This would be an absolutely terrible day for me if this were to happen.

I am going on a long walk today for my health. I have been trying to walk every day at least some significant distance. I am trying to balance this out with my calories consumed to keep my weight stable. I am not interested in losing more weight. Exercise has been helping me feel much better. I am not as depressed as I had been feeling.

I have been receiving clothes including sport coats from sellers on EBay, purchased at a fraction of their original value. This has been helping me to feel happy. Unfortunately this has been still costing me allot of money. I have been feeling like a child in a candy shop. I have decided to stop before the situation becomes a sad experience, one that can be stressful and last awhile.

Hugs to those who want them.

Been a quiet day. It was needed because I woke up with a sinus headache. No unusual noises during the night, though.

My husband planned out meals for next week. Bless him. Just need to get the groceries tomorrow, along with doing laundry and cleaning the house.

Temperature is going down so time to turn the heat back on. I just hope we won't have another freeze, but one never knows now.

Mood is okay for the moment.

I have been in a pretty depressed and funky mood, confounded by grief. I seem to be doing better today and feel a lot more upbeat. Going out on a double date tonight for dinner and a movie. I’m actually looking forward to it for a change.

4 weeks + 2 days

Woke up far too early at 5:00am and have been feeling tired all day. Snow is on the way. Ack! Ate healthy again today except for a single-serving bag of chips but it was only 210 cals so no biggie. It's hard to diet when i'm tired. Hugs, Jane.

Horrible day. I have been hypo the last couple days and today I crashed. I crashed way harder than I thought I would. I slept 14 hours last night and have only gotten out of bed to go to the bathroom. Bipolar sucks!!!!!!!
