I've been procrastinating on getting my hair cut because i so hate it. But i screwed up my courage and did it! I wanted a male barber because the women hairdressers fuss and it's so unpleasant and expensive. I talked a young man barber into cutting my hair and it looks really cute, shaved around the sides and back and long on top, like Miley Cyrus in "Wrecking Ball." It was only $25.
I was real nervous and made one awkward comment, not offensive or anything, and honest, i just sort of feel weird about it. But the barber did not react to it, and when we said goodbye he said he hoped to see me again, so it couldn't have been that bad, if he was inviting me back. So i'm really pleased i got that done and that it went relatively well and that i stuck to my guns and got a barber. The chirp continues but we are coping with it well. The weather is glorious! Hugs to all in need! Last edited by JaneOnceMore; Yesterday at 07:18 PM.. |

Today went better than I was expecting it to. Well, I should say I handled the day better than I was expecting to be able to. As evening and night progressed though, I have been struggling. In part, this just happens but also I have less distractions than when at work. I'm really kicking myself for not trying to get into counseling this week.
I have lunch with a friend tomorrow so, hopefully, that will help.
Possible trigger:
I was able to get a short walk in outside today! I haven't had the physical health, or low enough temperatures, for an outdoors walk in ages. The temps are going to rise above 100 again, but fall is clearly on its way where I live!! __________________ Lamotrigine: 300 mg Bupropion: 150 mg Risperidone: 3 mg |

Feeling super anxious this afternoon and mood is way down. Way down. I have an appointment with my counsellor in 3.5 hours. I really don’t feel like it. But it’s too late to cancel. She’s a work counsellor and I just don’t feel like speaking about work. I want to crawl up into a ball in bed and stay there. It was difficult seeing how sick my partner’s dad was in hospital. He’s deteriorating so much rapidly. He’s lost so much weight in a week his cheeks are hollow.

I took a walk to the bus stop then took the bus to the pharmacy to pick up my meds. I’m still frustrated that my other pharmacy closed. What used to take me a 30 minute walk total 15 min there and 15 min back now takes me an hour and a half if you include all the walking to the bus stop, waiting, then waiting for the bus on the way home and walking back from the bus stop. Oh well. At least I have my meds. I refilled my weekly med case for the week and took my morning meds. I saw a sign that they take walk ins there for Covid and flu vaccines though so I’m gonna go get the updated flu and Covid vaccines next time I take a trip there to get my next med refills.
I slept really good last night. Had really intense vivid dreams that felt like they went on forever. I slept really good though. I had some apple cider donuts today. They’re really good. Enjoying some coffee now. Enjoying the weekend. __________________ “All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.” -St. Francis of Assisi

I'm procrastinating on getting my hair cut too. Just don't really feel like it. I just need a trim. Keeping long.
Have like five prescriptions to pick up from the pharmacy on Monday, one of which is my prn Seroquel, which is good because I'm out of it (but have no way of getting to the pharmacy until Monday unfortunately). Couldn't fall asleep last night. Took 400mg of Seroquel to calm me down enough to finally fall asleep for my usual four hours. __________________ The darkest of nights is followed by the brightest of days. 😊 - anonymous The night belongs to you. 🌙- sleep token "I'm scared.

The only time I sleep good is when I take two ambien, but I don’t want to do that on a regular bases or my body will get used to it. Last night I tossed and turned so much my covers were in a knot. When I did sleep I was involuntary in a hospital, there was a bunch of us being drugged by the powers that be to keep us locked up. Was a terrifying experience. It still hangs over me hours later.
Need to do laundry today as I’m leaving for my sisters house tomorrow. So I can be there for my early morning dental appointment Monday morning.. Ugh, I’m so hungover from that dream. Memories of when I was so unstable. Nothing like a vivid dream to remind myself how good it is to be boring. 😂 __________________ Nammu …Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.
