How are you coping today? #2 1/2

I coped probably the best I have all week. I stayed out of my bed all day and I just now took my Xanax visteral combo. I’m not having any melatonin thoughts right now. I still feel physically sick but I still feel pretty good mental health wise.

Today I have been taking it easy. I have everything I need from the market. I don't feel the worry I felt earlier yesterday. So I have been in a good frame of mind today.

I am feeling extra distressed today and trying to change my thinking.

been feeling ... honestly a little terrified. and at the same time, utterly overwhelmed. don't know what to do or even how to go about figuring it out - which is also exhausting.

and now sad - missing the one person IRL who could've helped me with this...

I felt good today.I confronted my sister about her controlling way towards me.I told her to stop telling me off for going out as often as I like during the week,she wants me to stay home to save money on my budget.I told her she's not in charge of me so she doesn't get to tell me what to do and to reprimand me.I told her I am a free person and I decide if I want to go out and when and how often.It felt good to confront her and it felt liberating.I cope with the way she made me feel hemmed in and controlled really well by asserting to her my independence.I feel better,like an adult who is in charge of her own life!

Funny old day with all the nice outdoor stuff weathered off but I did brave the elements for a walk.

I friend paid me an absolutely wonderful compliment today it was so nice I felt quite humbled by it.

Made a to do list today and stuck to it - this is a work in progress.

I'm feeling lonely and sad tonight. I tried to stay busy today, but now I am tired. I may go to bed soon, which would be odd. I slept 10 hours last night. I think I just want to stay in bed.

I stayed out of bed and off the couch all the day. Got out of the house too. I was a bit crabby so I just stayed away from everyone. I haven’t taken any anxiety meds yet. I think distancing myself from the news has been good. But I am honestly very worried about what my blood test results are going to look like when I get my blood drawn in September.

getting ready for the day was agony, absolute agony

feeling depressed mostly. weekend, everyone doing stuff apart from me!

now where have I come across that before. hmmm

oh yeah. I remember. every ****ing weekend

Today is better for me. I'm in a good place. I'm enjoying some new books and I'm relaxing. It's the weekend!

Not coping well today. When I get feeling this way, I know I need to slow down and take care of myself.

I coped pretty well today. I got a lot done around the house and I controlled my anxiety well.

feeling a bit angry.

today I got a letter, and the person miss printed my last name

when I say miss printed it, I mean really mis printed. got it spectacularly wrong, and not just that, either

the last name they used just happened to be the last name of one of my previous abusers

can't say I'm too happy about that, either- and this place really needs correcting (I'll ring when I'm less angry about it)

and less in pain. getting ready for today was beyond painful

Half way through the day and my work shift has ended and went really well. Drinking coffee now and watching the rain, maybe some ironing then possibly some reading or art.

Hoping everyone is doing okay today and if they aren't then sending hugs.

I am doing ok. Working, relaxing, eating well, and having sex once in awhile are doing wonders for me. I feel ok!! Life is not bad!! I always remember to take my medication no matter what. So, sometimes, I feel manic but pop my pill then feel sleepy again. It is working!!

I’m coping as best as I can today.

sleep = 0 (up all night with pain and flashbacks)

body = painful (very, very, very, painful)

plans for the day?

**** all, but later I have that new recipie to try (the grilled lemon chicken one). I hope it's yummy!

I slept like crap. I went to bed early to start work early. The dogs kept jumping up on bed and then back down and one wanted to crawl under the covers with us - she ends up pulling all the covers down when she does that. Now I am lagging. Not a great start to the week.

Today I am coping by reading & posting here at PC.

Today I coped by reading, crying, praying, talking to people and playing my game.

This weekend was awful. I went to the store and was yelled at by multiple people. One of them admit they were bullying me when they found them getting attention they didn't want.

feel terrible.

their's just nothing going on, and even if their was what am I meant to do with a body that just hurts.

yesterday I tried a new recipie (the lemon chicken I posted in another section othe forum), it was okay, but left me still hungry, so I first had some fries, and when that didn't feel me up, I had snacks- a lot of snacks.

another night with no sleep either. litirally none. not even the oppotunity to lie down

I woke up at the crack of dawn, per my routine and was doing great going through my profile as usual. By the time I'm at these last questions, I'm feeling tired and achy. Not sure what to do next.

Today I'm having a really hard time. For one thing, I had a very sad conversation with a friend on the phone yesterday & I can't stop thinking about it. Also there are so many things I need to do but I feel like I don't have enough energy to do them.

You are very kind Breaking Dawn, I hope that your friend and yourself are okay.
