How are you coping today?

Coping well, so far.

such a typical boring day

nothing at all going on

Mixed emotions. Having to medicate for panic attacks. Trying to shut my mouth and stop reeling. At the point of acceptance. Just don’t like to sad truth.

Hanging in there so far.

I'm tired and don't know why. I feel fine otherwise.

I’m not really letting my emotions control me today. The food situation at home all day wasn’t good. But I snacked on stuff of my own. The TV situation wasn’t good but I did get to watch it a little bit. Basically I just kept my emotions mostly to myself today.

Just coping really, last five days I had a bad chesty cough and the common cold, I felt lousy and miserable, really depressed and low moods and physically exhausted without any energy. Up at 5am this morning feeling better and refreshed so not complaining today really.

I wasn’t feeling the best but I just watched TV all day today. No need bringing down the whole house because I’m in a bad mood. Could they sense it though? Probably.

I still have throat and chest infections felt bad but coping today.

Terrible day. Dysphoric and awful and hopeless and like, what's the point? I don't know what to do.

I am struggling. I teach preschool which is demanding so I’m trying to do that. I think I’m depressed as my life seems hopeless and there’s no point.

I'm sure all those kids are happy to see you though

kids of that age are so full of life and so oblivious to things like depression and suffering

try and put on a brave face for them

my shower today caused me no end of backpain.

also today my internet went down, and that messed up my alexa (why can't alexa just connect herself?. she's meant to be so clever and stuff)

irritated me too because I had to deal with my emails offline, and delay sending of them.

stomach is feeling better today which is good (I hate when it hurts), and I guess my mood's okay, fibro pain is really bad though

Reasonably well. Though I am tired, and there's something that annoyed me and made me feel worse this morning. But there's nothing I can do about it and it's over now anyway. I have to accept this is how things are.

bad.

mainly because it's saturday, everyone's doing stuff for halloween (or getting prepared for it), I'm sat here, in terrible fibro pain, watching a comedy I don't even want to watch and posting on here

life sucks

and so far halloween sucks too

I lived through the traumatic fallout. It’s behind me now. I’m okay. I am blessed with some wonderful friends that helped me through.

Went for a very challenging 55-mile bike ride before the sun came up. Lotta homeless people camped next to the trail on the in-city portion. It is starting to get wet here and, as I rode by on my fancy bike with my fancy gear, it just broke my heart that human beings in our society are living like this. It's just wrong.

I also thought to myself, what's so different about you compared to these people? Sure, I'm educated and have some limited degree of financial security, but a lot of them are addicts with mental illness, just like me. That could easily be me, if just a couple bad breaks came my way. Could totally be me.

So, I'm heartbroken and at the same time immensely grateful that I have shelter and food and mental health care. And a bike to cheer me up. I may not have many friends or family anymore, but I have you guys. And that's what counts. Thanks, PC!

I'm feeling a lot of different (mostly unpleasant) feelings. Anxious, agitated, sad,etc. I'm pretty sure it's cause I didn't get enough sleep so hopefully I'll sleep better tonight and feel better in the morning

I slept on the sofa all day on and off woke to eat then slept again. I am not coping I feel ill and I feel lousy....really low and depressed, alone and unsupported. Help me please!

I am so sorry you are struggling, Marilyn. But we are here for you! I see it is getting kind of late in the UK at the moment. Do you think you will be able to sleep tonight, given your earlier napping?

Coping well. Trying to forgive people in my heart who intentionally hurt me and didn’t ask forgiveness.

I’m being assertive. Like at the doctors. I did ok at work. I coped fine I just felt ****** all day. They taught me in treatment centers as a teenager how to cope under stress though. Some days are easier then others.

I told myself today not to be in a bad mood and I wasn’t. I don’t know. I wasn’t feeling much emotionally today except some slight anxiety about work tomorrow. Right now I just feel blah about everything. But I coped fine today.

Just, uh, doing the best I can.
