How would you describe your mental health (or mood) right now?

I am feeling kind of numb today. I had slept well last night; yet, was very sleepy today. Am looking forward to bed right now.

I have also found I don't get much done when making a lot of headway in my healing. I tend to catch up with the other demands on life a bit later.

I hate to let other things go; yet, have found I often just HAVE TO do so. I have become much easier on myself. It's healthier than this:

You don't need more self- judgment, you need self-compassion.

I am excited you are experiencing some breakthroughs!
I hope you find complete healing.

Have I told you today how wise and wonderful I think you are? If not, I need to do so more often. Thank you for gently steering me in the right direction. It made all the difference. I appreciate you!!!

He seems to think so. But I am not..

He is absolutely insistent on being at his granddaughters birthday party along with all the other 39 family members, which irks the snot out of me. It’s a huge noisy crowded hell for at least 3 hours, I always have my daughter rescue me 35 mins into it at most. I just can not in any way shape or form handle it at all.

But the kid is opening 133 presents at once, she is clueless who gives her what anyway. I honestly wish him and I could just do a small birthday celebration with her on her own.

Maybe once I can get rested up again and not be in such a shyt mood I’ll be able to manage, but just the trip had me a mess and now this huge health scare that might not be over yet is looming over my head.

Have you talked to your husband (and even his doctors) about how advisable your upcoming trip might be? I'm thinking about both you and your husband when I ask that.

I personally think the whole trip should be postponed for now , but hey ! what do I know ( eyeroll)

In the good old days hospitals used to keep people until they were 100%. Now days it's just til the crisis passes, yer expected to recuperate at home not go galloping off to another state. I can't think that his doctors think that is a good idea. So sorry he's being pig headed.

I “ think” he figures if he can get a few good nights of sleep in his own bed its going to make him feel like a million bucks. Since he’s really clueless about medical stuff he doesn’t realize just how much his body has been going through lung infection, but by spiders ants or whatever, he has severe neuropathy and doesn’t feel things bitting him , and then the tick bite on top of it all. He was very ill and is going to need time to heal and build back up.

I hope him and I can have a productive conversation tomorrow.

Pigheaded in the dictionary has my husbands picture next to it.

mppd is pretty cruddy right now. mixed episode going on. even though I slept. took a kpin and some natural anti-anxiety supplements. going to look into some CBD oils soon here where I live. I could really use some.

Wild Coyote · Aug 03, 2019, 03:23 PM

Tenuous!!!

I'm fine. I fell asleep fairly early last night so woke up early (6 am) with some energy. I made individual peach crisps for breakfast. They were yummy. Now I am lounging in bed while hubby does his bathroom duty. He usually stays in there for a long time reading magazines 😁 Afterwards, we'll likely water our gardens.

Oh, Wow! It is a pleasure to "see" you!
I used to read a lot of your posts, which always had very warm and welcoming energy!

It's quite possible you have been around and I have not seen you. I have been sticking to this forum quite a bit lately. Either way, it's great to see you!

I am sorry you might be moving into a manic phase.

I hope there is a way you might be able to interrupt the process and avoid any full-blown episode?

Peach crisp?

I love it! Yum!

I love reading your posts. I enjoy the many topics covered.
Your food posts make it difficult to fight the food cravings so prevalent with Seroquel. I do enjoy these posts anyway!

I used to threaten my H with buying an extra toilet, placing it in his den, putting a reading lamp beside it. That way, he'd free up the bathroom once in awhile. Thought he could read his magazines there!? Why oh why must they claim the bathroom for so long?

My GI doc had told me to tell my H that sitting there for any length of time would cause hemorrhoids. She was very serious.

I hope you have an enJOYable day, my friend!

Wild Coyote · Aug 04, 2019, 12:13 PM

I am in a mixed mood today.
I still feel a bit "cloudy" from med side-effects.
I am working on disability review paperwork. I take a break now and then. I sometimes come here, as I find PC very relaxing most of the time.

I have many important appointments coming up this week. I only have one day free,which I am truly not used to. I hope I can find/create the stamina I will need to get through.

Love to All ~

It is really nice to be remembered. Thanks. No, I've been away for a while but ready to come back. I really don't have any other form of support. Hope to see you around.
