I’m exhausted. I’m in this weird phase and I’m just not sleeping. I’m all paranoid and being impulsive and I just want to sleep forever.

Had a lot of errands to do today and I’m wore out , got about 3 hours sleep last. night. Fibromyalgia isn’t playing nice.
I was correct in getting my husband in with our Doctor he’s got another lung infection , he’s back on antibiotics and steroids that should perk him up a bit. Tomorrow I take the dogs for there shots and then back home and I’m giving them both a bath ! My mammogram came back fine but bone density is showing osteopenia so I’m going to be on weekly Fosamax for 5 years. I get rid of one Med and get a damn nother one ![]() Can’t wait til Monday !! I sure hope he gets to feeling better. I want him to enjoy out vacation. ![]()

I slept last night but I’m dropping/spilling everything. My husband says it’s because I’m exhausted. I’m in control of my thoughts today. I’m not agitated
Possible trigger:

I met with my case worker from Medicaid today. She did a quick assessment and then told me of all the resources and benefits that are available to me. Good to know some of them. I then did some more grocery shopping and came home and watched tv. I received a letter in the mail the other day from the SSA that I actually read today. I apparently have a hearing in July. I wish it was sooner, but something is better than nothing.

In my last update I mentioned a guy that started after me got fired. It turns out it was for performance issues, so that's good news in a way because they're not cutting back on people.
I feel bad for him but he brought it on himself. I tried to show him things but he refused and wanted to do them his way. You can't do that when you're brought in to do something really specific and technical - you follow the rules for a while before you can start making changes. But he insisted and paid for it with his job ![]() I worked for the day today - my first day back after several days off sick. I'm not 100% but I made it anyway. One more day until the weekend.

I saw my doctor and he started me on Lamictal. Glad to be trying something new. My blood pressure is fine and he didn't nag me about my weight.
BirdDancer: congrats on the new clothes. They sound pretty! Enjoy yourself! |

Just checking in. I’m doing pretty good. Healing nicely so far. A little tired of ice cream. Working hard so the house will be ready for Easter. The household has been quiet and still today. Usually, I love, love, love being alone or having some peace and quiet but not today. Going to get up and out by 7:00 tomorrow to run errands. Got to keep busy.
Warm wishes and hugs to all. ![]() |

It is 10 am here and after a good sleep, which took hours to get to but hey at least it was good after I got to sleep. My mood is better. I was drowning yesterday and terrified I was getting sick again. Now I can see it was just a bad day. Today I am packing to go to my parents to look after their house while they're away for a week. They have a HUGE TV and spectacular sound system so I am looking forward to blasting the stereo and watching some great shows. My partner is going to join me so it should be fun. I just hope our Bipolar conditions like irritability don't cause trouble as they can. This is why we don't live together. We would drive each other crazy and have to separate. This is why our 11 year marriage failed in the first place. He is a great guy though and we love each other deeply and understand each other like no one else can.

My weight has slowly started to drop with my med changes. 3kg (6lbs) so far. I hope it continues. I have a fair way to go.

Yesterday morning I was struggling to get out of bed, but then I did and even did a lot (went downtown, ate lunch out, took a walk in a park). Today I'm sort of struggling to get going, again. I did finally shave my legs. That's actually a big accomplishment for me. But other than that, I've been hiding in bed. I haven't paid enough attention to my pet parrot. I'll try to do so in a little bit. When I don't, I try to remind myself that if I was working a full-time job, he wouldn't see anyone most of the day. As it is, he sees me almost all day long, even if he's just in the cage staring at me. I usually do talk to him even when he's in his cage.
I'm glad it's the weekend! Weekends are almost always a little easier because hubby is home. I tend to do more chores when he's home, and we usually go somewhere for something. |

Today was sort of a 'blah' day. I didn't do much of anything except make a few phone calls. And it was rainy today which makes me lazy. My sister and her kids will be here later this evening, so I'm looking forward to that. Hugs to all that needs one!

Having a low day, irritable too. It's PMDD mood still. My therapist said I seemed different and like I wanted to cry. Pretty big change from my chipper self last therapy session. I know it'll pass but I feel hopeless and like it will never get better right now. I am going to meet up with a friend and her friends tonight. I hope it goes well and is a good move to get out of the house. Hope everyone has a great Friday.

Crazy eye pain and swelling on a spot on the lower eyelid of my right eye. I was thinking a stye. Nope, according to the ophthalmologist: just pinkeye. I would've been relieved if she didn't expound vehemently upon cleaning every surface in the house twice with bleach wipes, like I had the plague, smallpox, and anthrax rolled into one germy mess.. Stressed my husband out which stressed and frustrated me as well. More antibiotic/steroid drops which don't do a thing for the pain and swelling. At least ibuprofen takes care of some of it so I can sleep.
Other than that another quiet day. Been feeling down of which this didn't help. All I want is more chocolate and sleep. Love and hugs to all. |

Still struggling. Last night I was incredibly restless. I paced and just wanted to sleep early but meds weren’t kicking in. I tried sleeping at 7.30 pm but got up soon after as I knew sleep wouldn’t come. I tried distracting myself and finally went to sleep after 10 pm after more meds. It was an awful feeling.
This morning I feel better and I’m hoping the irritability doesn’t kick in later. Off to babysit my parents house today. It should be fun as they have great technology and my partner will be with me. This should help. My mood is low and I’m scared. PTSD. My T and I are working through it but it’s hard going. I’m hoping in time that the therapy will calm these symptoms.
