Thanks for sharing your good news, Rose!

I feel like a stranger here now, but happy to say I have much more in balance. I still struggle with identity and trust... mainly trust.

Sorry to hear that. I hope you feel better in the morning.

Working is sometimes rough on me too. I hope tomorrow is a better day for you.

That's awesome. Sounds like a plan.

I hope these next 9-10 months are smooth sailing for you.

Tomorrow is N3's 17th birthday. We are having pizza at my mom's.

Im feeling better. Some paranoia left but much less than before.

Saw my primary yesterday: everythings on the up and up. She thinks a lot of it was caused by meds im no longer on now- including psych meds.

I hope the birthday is fun and enjoyable for everyone. Let us know how it goes.

I give up on sleeping. I got 5 hours yesterday and 4 hours today, if that. I'm not tired, but instead frustrated. I keep waking up every 30 minutes to an hour. I'm just tossing and turning, tossing and turning. That pretty much sums up the last two nights.

It's almost 3:30am and I don't know what to do with myself. I'm just staring at my phone and at the cieling. Guess I'll just watch a bunch of YouTube videos or something before I get myself in trouble.

this morning I spent a good majority of the morning listening to one hit wonders and catchy songs.

in a musical kind of mood

that said, it is very hot outside, and the hot weather messes with my depression so bad- today would have probably been a good day if it wasn't for the weather

Getting pretty good at doing things one handed. I’ll have the cast on until October 10th. Today is the first day I have feeling in my first three fingers so fingers crossed that the surgery was successful. The pinched nerve in my elbow is hurting so we’ll tackle that next. Many thanks to those that alleviated my fears before surgery.

Very grateful that the depression but especially the anxiety is giving it a rest for now. The anxiety has been a vicious cycle for months.

Sending hugs and positive vibes to all those that need it.

I am so sorry. I really hate it when I cannot sleep. Even when I am fully manic, I still want an hour or 2.

Are you on meds for sleep? If so, can your pdoc try something else or have you pretty much tried everything? Are you having hypomania or just flat out not able to sleep?

The only "sleep" med I have is klonopin. Seroquel gave me suicidal thoughts and those thoughts didn't go away until I went off the med.

I'm just not able to sleep because I'm not tired. I should've just stayed up all night last night instead of torturing myself by attempting to sleep. Maybe then I would have fallen asleep by now. I need to tire myself out enough before I can fall asleep.

Someone broke the window where my husband works. He found it when he got in. He's waiting for the cops to show up now. Imgur: The magic of the Internet
