I am going to have to leave the dishes in the sink until my husband gets home, still more laundry to be done. I hope to get to that before he gets home. I don't have any sort of career but to be a homemaker, hard to even find time without housework to be done. I knit, play piano and am trying to learn the flute. I also attend a senior center group that gives me joy to help these people out and become fiends with them. I did geta Bachelors degree in arts but was disabled in an accident, so there went my career. i can't drive either.Well i hope someday i can hit the lottery because i want a whole new wardrobe as mine now is terrible.

Coping better today for the first time in several weeks.I made progress with decluttering.I took 10 fiction books and donated them.Gave an old tv to tv recycling.Got a box of crockery,drinking mugs and kitchen equipment packed ready for someone to collect tomorrow.Arranged for man with van to take some broken stuff to the tip!.

I am pleased and hopefully I can tidy and organise and get rid of more stuff.I am assessing stuff by if I use it or not if I don't use it I am getting rid of.

So yes did well today did better than just cope.

Very well, didn't get nervous when I tried to do something. In the past I would have been to nervous to even look. So that was good. And now I'm trying to fit things into this afternoon and tonight. But I have tomorrow, Sunday and Monday to do these things too. So no rush.

I Drank a lot of caffeine to keep me going. But I made it and stayed at work. So I guess I coped well at work. I needed an emergency session with my therapist. I still think I did ok.

Really worked on focusing at work and have a tendency to procrastinate and think “oh I’ll get to that”. Have to focus and did that and hoping to meet goal this month. Feel like I’m somewhat ADHD and then almost OCD other times, frustrating, also depression and anxiety are there, but when I’m intent on finishing something, look out. Like to escape through work and not deal with other things in life, but really want a life. Will work on getting “a life.”

honestly I have resorted to thinking about cats that sit on mats

I am doing so little my brain is just making weird thoughts

earlier today I wondered what it might be like to eat stuff from a board game

I'm just.... yeah, falling in to complete randomness because of lack of activity

I have been coping pretty well.

only real issues I've had over the last few days are chronic pain and sleep (unable to control either)

bit emotional yesterday though, someone started on me for no reason- swore at me and shouted at me, and I don't aprecciate either of those things (it makes me feel hated by the whole world)

and for ages yesterday I thought well perhaps she's right, maybe I am hated and don't deserve things

Kind of badly today. Can't force myself to do any work or do anything basically. I thought I was doing fine earlier, but I cannot accomplish what I need to accomplish today.

Today is sort of bad, I've been sleeping all day because I keep thinking about my brother and I had this migraine that was killing me. I might take a bubble bath soon so I can relax a bit.

Wish I could stop reeling or at least appear to be calm, cool, and collected to all.

A lot of Caffeine. Not too bad in general I don’t think. I wasn’t visibly moody or anything and work was fine. I’m doing a lot of worrying about my appointment tomorrow though.
