@Blue_Bird:
Thanks for sharing that you feel the same way about haircuts as i do. There's this old idea that women LIKE to go to the 'beauty salon' but it's not true for many of us. @Nammu: Thanks for sharing about the virtues of being boring! I feel the same way. Definitely a balancing act, but as i get older i appreciate peace, quiet, and privacy more and more. |

It’s hard waiting for my dna test results! I feel good on my current med but who know what category it’s in. I still wonder why I have to come in in 3 1/2 weeks instead of when my pnp gets the genesight results in less than 2.

Good to see you @MuddyBoots
Even though I don't need another one, I treated myself to a new water bottle today. I don't like shopping for much, but I absolutely love getting a new water bottle or tumbler. It helped me feel a little happiness amidst all this depression. I got myself to do laundry, tidy up my bathroom, and sweep/mop. Tomorrow, I need to grocery shopping and lesson plan. __________________ Lamotrigine: 300 mg Bupropion: 150 mg Risperidone: 3 mg |

I fell asleep from about 4:30 this afternoon to 8:30 tonight. I was so tired. I feel better now. I ate a protein brownie when I got up and I am listening to music. I listened to that song that song about the night of the 21st of September.

Big day tomorrow. We have the inspection on the new house so we're going to go look at it. I'll be so glad to see it for myself instead of the weird angle photos the realtors take to make things look bigger.
I really hope I like it because I'm stuck there anyway. So far I've had 2 doses of PRN Seroquel and am going to take more at midnight. I have to get up at 7:30 to get ready to leave. That's really early for me. Today I did laundry that piled up while I had COVID and then started working my way through a file box. It's mostly tax papers that I no longer need to keep since I'm beyond the 7 year mark. There's also good stuff that makes me smile like my letter telling me I was officially licensed as an occupational therapist in the state of _________. Shredding is going to take more than one movie. I can't believe I'm preparing to move from here. I'll be fine in the new place, it's just strange. My therapist is back in 9 days! He's going to be mad at me for skipping 4 weeks (or he'll think I don't need to see him as often and the minute that's not true. I hope I can get him to understand). __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, GAD, OCD.

I played string bass and never liked tuning it. I enjoyed learning how to play but I didn't like reading sheet music, I usually tried to memorize the music. That only gets you so far though, once the music gets long and complicated then you gotta read the sheet music. You get different types of rosin too, so maybe look into that as your playing improves. I remember that I used to like a purple colored rosin because it was more grippy and was good for the lower notes, but that was 40 years ago so I'm sure things have changed __________________ * Dx: Unspecified Bipolar and Related Disorder * Rx: Remeron, Prozac, Klonopin My avatar picture is a photo of the Whirlpool Galaxy I took in April 2023.

I'm still feeling pretty low.
I really have to do things this week and I'm not sure how I'll be able to do them. I guess I'll have to grind it out, as my kids would say. I'm finding that my family just doesn't understand the variability of bipolar and doesn't appreciate the energy needed to appear normal when in reality I feel awful. I've been living with this disorder for more than 20 years, you'd think that they'd have at least a basic understanding at this point. But, no, they do not and advice like ' drink more water' isn't helpful. __________________ * Dx: Unspecified Bipolar and Related Disorder * Rx: Remeron, Prozac, Klonopin My avatar picture is a photo of the Whirlpool Galaxy I took in April 2023.
