I am so hungry today. I've been hungry for a couple of days but I've been doing fine on my calorie budget. These last 2 days have been annoying though but I've managed. I'm going out of town next week for a couple days and we have a couple resturant dinner plans and I'd rather splurge a bit then. Although I do know I don't have to go overboard then either. Get the grilled cheese but get the side salad instead of fries and all that stuff they teach you in Noom. I plan on buying a new pair of Vans while I'm gone. I want a pair of plain white and black checkerboard slip ons. Out of all the Vans I've owned I've never had a pair of those and those are pretty standard. Today I'm just watching TV since its Sunday. My moods are fine.

RS is out fishing. I told him he deserves a day out doing what he loves. My son is sick with a cold. I took him to urgent care bc he was complaining of fatigue and chills and has a nasty cough but he is negative for everything, including a fever. I think he got it in his head that he had Covid and responded with psychosomatic symptoms. The cough is real for sure but after the amount of steep stairs we climbed yesterday I’m not surprised about the fatigue and the chills were definitely psychosomatic because as soon as he found out everything was negative that and the fatigue magically disappeared. I don’t blame him though, I do the exact same thing. That’s why I avoid the dr for so long, I know 99% of the time it’s in my head. And then I end up going to get the symptoms to stop lol.
I’m itching to go out and shop for things but I really shouldn’t spend any money considering I have no income. I want to do things around the house but I myself am fatigued from seroquel. I want to nap but I can’t do that either. I did clean out the chest freezer and found about 4lb of chicken breasts divided into various freezer bags. I cleaned out one section of my car. I stopped because our neighbor was outside and I’m the rude neighbor who doesn’t want to talk to anyone else. I’ll say hi though so I’m not actually rude, I just don’t like making small talk with people. Makes me nervous. Uuuuggh I’m so tired!

I ate some fast food spaghetti for lunch and I actually feel full for the first time in 2 days. My daily carbs are a nightmare though so I have to rely on CICO (calories in calories out) and my sodium level for the day. But the spaghetti was so worth it to feel like I wasn't starving.

Uff da my back is giving me trouble today. Did my bedroom in shifts. Dusted, break. Tore the bed apart and Lysol Ed it down and then took another break. Made it with the new sheets and blankets. Took a break Now I’ve got left the spraying of the pillows with lavender and the top blanket. I’ll do the washing up tomorrow. Looks so nice and inviting.
I’m watching an old independent film from Canada/ Briton owd Bob, a young American boy’s parents die and he’s sent to an island in Ireland to his grandfather. James Cromwell is in it, I like him. But a shower tonight after call the midwife is over. Then to my newish bed.

@BethRags:
I'm sorry to hear you are so upset about your medical records. Hopefully you had a good sleep and things look brighter today. What about just simply discussing your concerns about your medical records with your new doctor? Any decent doctor will want to do their own assessment anyways. It's their medical license at stake and they're real serious about that. And i agree with Soupe, that there is a world of difference between dependence and addiction. I'm also a long-time benzo user and you may recall last year i had to conclude the best i could do was harm-reduction, i couldn't achieve abstinence. I think it's still worthwhile, i've reduced my use 75% and i'm waking up at a reasonable hour now. Anyways, hope you're feeling better today! |

Well, that sounds downright scary. Can you mention it to your prescriber? I don't think Wellbutrin would cause word salad, but I'd still check it out if I were you. ![]()

Thank you, GoGo2! That's actually really helpful. So, explaining straight out to my GP, rather than not saying anything and hoping she doesn't read the comments.

Thank you, Soupe - or should I call you "George"? You made me giggle ![]() I've decided to keep seeing my current T. She's been so supportive through all this trash. I've been seeing her for 3 years and honestly, the thought of starting over with a new T is daunting, to say the least. But I am continuing with the new med provider, the PA. I believe the medication stuff at that clinic is a good situation. He has not asked me for my records - and I will not volunteer them. I have had several pdocs encourage me to increase my Klonopin dosage - I have always declined, quite firmly. I really am afraid I'll never be able to kick the stuff - and I know it is causing memory challenges. On a lighter (but important) note: Have you heard - it looks like Macron is going to win the election! I am so relieved. That conservative (ultra so) woman, not good news globally. *Waves the French flag!*

That's wonderful! It's scary at first, but likely you will feel relieved to be with a therapist.

I did sleep well, but with 25mg Seroquel, which is upsetting to me.
I am walloped by how badly that doctor has trashed me, simply out of revenge. I stood up to her and she didn't like that - and she has the power. She has victimized me, hands down. I hope to hear from Jennifer today...so Jennifer...please let us know how you are.

I have been to therapy before. I thought I was done with that, but now it seems necessary ...

Yes, the work/break is the way to go when one is in pain. I was very into Call the Midwife for a long time. For some reason, when Barbara died I sort-of detached from the show. But I do plan on watching the new episodes at some point. Enjoy your fresh bed! Sounds lovely.
