The autopsy will tell but I think it was that fast moving flu and it was either pneumonia or sepsis that got her.

It reminded me never to take one second of life for granted. She had just posted a funny Facebook post a few days before never knowing what Sunday held. Disconcerting. She will be missed.

Warm wishes to all.

How horrible jenn.
Very scary. It could happen to one of us...makes me want to run out and get a flu shot.

So sorry for your loss Jennifer1967

Slept seven hours in a row. Without Clonazepam.
Or any other prescription drug.

I'm back to taking L-Tryptophan and is working.
Keeping myself occupied during the day also helps..
I'm very happy to be alive!.

Cheers.

I only got 4 to 4.5 hours sleep last night. My fault! I forgot to take my meds until 10 pm last night. If I'm late with my evening meds, I don't get tired enough to sleep until 3 am sometimes, then it's hard to getting up as early as usual. Seroquel XR is the culprit, but I much prefer the XR over the regular.

Update: I finally did it. I scheduled my first French lesson. It will be with an elderly French gentleman (Monsieur Gilbert). He used to be a guest professor at the university in my town, which is a highly prestigious university. He's retired. I'll go to his home for private tutoring. His private tutoring is $5 more than the private French tutoring at the other place I was looking, but the first lesson with Monsieur Gilbert is free. I'll see how it goes. Perhaps eventually I will go to the other school's group classes. There's an advantage to going to an elderly instructor, but other advantages with a younger one (latest terms, slang).

I am so sorry about your friend and the loss you are all experiencing. Unexpected deaths are particularly horrible in their own way.

[tecomsin]

I am so sorry, as well, that your friend died suddenly, Jennifer 1967. You are right that we should never take life for granted.

Oh, Jenn, I'm so sorry for your loss. That puts the challenges of my day in perspective. A car that won't start isn't such a big deal after all.

I’m so sorry for your loss Jennifer. That’s terrible.

Today is a good day. The sun is out finally, my mood is lighter and I have more energy. My pdoc cut my Risperdal dose in half and last night was my first night on the new amount. I am wondering if my elevated state has something to do with the adjustment. I'm afraid to spiral into mania again, but this feels nice and balanced for the first time in a while. I was experiencing mild anxiety before as well, but that seems to have lifted today also. Fingers crossed I'm on my way to normalcy and peace again.

Well wishes to all for a good day.

I'm so sorry for your loss, Jennifer. It's never easy to lose someone. I'm sorry you have to go through this. However, you are not alone. This is the time to hold family close and let them know you love them.

Oh Jennifer, that is terrible. I'm so sorry for your loss.

So sorry to hear about your friend Jennifer.

[Daonnachd]

I got my car started and now have it parked facing downhill so I can roll start it tomorrow morning if it does the same thing again. I also had new tyres put on it finally. Despite all that which looks and sounds positive, I'm feeling low.

My T texted me again today 3 days in a row now , (very very unusual) to see if I’m ok , I see him tomorrow. I slept til
5 today , yes I’m staying up to near morning or full on morning , not sure why. Maybe just because.....

I just don’t know where I fit in this world anymore. * sigh*

I've had a weird day. I'm going through a lot of stuff right now and it's kind of taking its toll on me. I'm doing OK though, I'm not high but I'm not too low either. I'm just OK

Que te vaya bien.

Brentus, just wanted to say thanks for the thoughtful reply to my post on the previous check-in thread! Also, went back and just saw your post. I am sorry for all you are dealing with. Sending compassion your way.

I am doing okay today. I always feel better when it is sunny out, and it was warm enough so I go to get outside during lunch to catch some sun. Went to Zumba and for ice cream after with a friend. I feel less panicked and obsessive today. I am realizing I spend a lot of my life in some state of fear, I guess that's anxiety for you, but it sure is an odd way to live when I really think about it. Maybe a good reason to work to get healthier.

Condolences for the loss of your friend.

I slept poorly and the day got off to a bad start with eating junk and lying around. I no longer think the Wellbutrin is kicking in. But later in the day was better with drinking plain water and making a proper dinner. I feel lucky to have a life that accommodates my mood swings since it seems they are permanent.

[yellow_fleurs]

Jennifer 1967 I am very sorry to hear about your friend.

So sorry for your loss Jennifer. that's really sad. .

I'm so sorry about your friend Jennifer. Sending you many warm hugs.

Hello everyone; I hope everyone is doing well. I am still feeling pretty exhausted and run down. Day 2 of wearing scrubs which that never happens. I'm just feeling tired and don't feel like dressing up and scrubs are just so comfortable and it's nice wearing flats for a change instead of heels. I love my heels but it's just so nice wearing flats on occasion; even though I feel like a such a shorty wearing flats.

I had an okay day at work it was a little better than yesterday. After work I went and got my hair done since my roots were starting to show; and after getting my hair colored went to the parents house and collected my kitty since it's been almost a week since he's been at the parents house. I'm still at the boyfriend's house so now kitty is having to listen to the dogs since it is there house and he is just a guest; but you all know how cats are and for some reason he thinks it's his house and is trying to put the dogs in line. I think he is glad to have his human back since he's been glued to my hip since leaving the parents house.

Hugs to everyone
