I have had my breakfast here at the Spanish "Coasta del Sol". It is a bit cloudy today. Am now at my room planning the day. Will take a walk around the neigborhood this morning. We don't expect rain, but I will bring my umbrella just in case (They have sunshine at home
 ).

@Soupe du jour I am so sorry. You must take time for yourself to grieve the two losses. Don’t be too hard on yourself right now. I have a poster in my room that says “you are doing your best and that is enough” and I think that’s good for you to remember right now.

I am a bit scared because I feel so tired. The winter was hard and I gave into my depression and then I had the toothache, the headache and the pain in my shoulder. I stopped exercising and going for my walks. That was stupid of me, but so it became this last winter season. I have promised myself that this shall not become my bad habits of next winter, but to feel so weak now, really scares me.
But I cannot give in. I have three weeks to get better here at the coast of Spain. One can take long walks at the beach in both directions, so it must give me some health, I hope.  I have been walking around the neighborhood today. It was hard for breath and body! Now I am going read some news and then force myself to do my usual physical exercises and the new ones for my shoulder.

To all those who brought up delivery. Yes I can. Around November I scribed to the local store’s membership, that included free delivery. I had forgotten that. I’m not eating much so will have a hard time ordering enough groceries to make the minimum. But I can also order cat litter and cases of water. Not only will it make the minimum, it means I don’t have to carry those heavy things. Excellent idea, thanks for reminding me I have that.

@Soupe du jour:
So sorry for the loss of your brother. Coming on the heels of the loss of your father, it must be hard to bear. I hope you will be kind, gentle and patient with yourself. @Valcingetorix5150: Welcome to the forum! |

@Valcingetorix5150, also welcoming you to the forum! I have bipolar disorder type 1, as well. And a history of psychosis during my worst episodes. Though I don't have ADHD, my husband does, so I kind of understand the struggles from that disorder, as well. Are you receiving treatment for both disorders? I know some people with bipolar disorder can't easily take ADHD meds.
@~Christina, I hope your step son feels better soon and receives effective treatment for his heart issue. How scary it struck him while on a flight trip for his job.

Thank you for all of the condolences, MSF Friends! They are much appreciated.
@wildflowerchild25, it is a good poster with great advice. I will remind myself of that as I move forward after my losses and other hard challenges. Thank you!

I took a half hour nap at 4PM yesterday afternoon. Then I went to bed at 6 and fell asleep right away. I woke up at 11:15 to ask my brother something. Then I fell back asleep until 4:30. I weighed myself and I had lost another pound since yesterday. I was doing fine until 45 minutes ago. I'm thinking of going on a walk but I don't know if thats a good idea with the heat and my nausea and loss of appetite.
Is Carol Burnett the next Betty White.
