I am hibernating today as it is horrible weather, I got out of work early as they didn't need me and scurried home in rain and wind and pretty much glued to the sofa ever since. Feeling lethargic but nice to read my book - tomorrow is another day.

Positive thoughts to all.

I am keeping myself distracted this morning. Now I might read and try to relax. But overall, I think I am coping well.

Ugh, I let something slip at work today. Too many messages on a gmail thread and I missed a message about new instructions being added to my dropbox file. I noticed it, let my client know and it is fixed now, but I feel stupid, like I must have come off as flaky.

Trying hard
How can one cope when life has turned into a horror and no way back this time
I write and hope for a fairy to appear. That's what i can... and I'm ashamed when saying this... but it's something beyond now
Long gone

All worked okay with the work thing. They are understanding. But I am lagging again today. The dogs had been sort of restless the previous night, making it hard to sleep. Last night one of our cats decided to howl outside of the bedroom door at 2 AM. She does that from time to time. The first times I went to check if she was okay, she is, she is just looking for attention. She can't come into the bedroom because she has a history of knocking over flat screen TVs. Ugh, it was a half an hour of howling.

I feel pretty ****** today. I’ve had a lot of caffeine and I took my morning meds at 1 in the morning because I was trying to get back to sleep. So it’s been 14 hours without meds. I also didn’t sleep very well last night and I haven’t eaten a lot in awhile. Also I’m depressed about my therapist and I feel like she’s mad at me. And I got my haircut and she had to keep asking me to unhook my mask to get around the sides and the way the salon was set up seems super safe. It’s not a huge salon more like a suite sort of thing. and my 68 year old mom has gone to her twice and has been fine. It’s just still a bit triggering for me to do something like that when I haven’t done anything since March.

Keep well all and always good to read about your days.

I guess I am ok,I feel a bit lost since deciding to withdraw from the college cause I was going to do in September this year.
It is 4.49am have been unable to get to sleep tonight,I didn't take me evening meds,I forgot so took them half an hour ago,that might be why I didn't sleep earlier.
I am frustrated and scared with the covid situation.I know health is important and mine has been badly managed by myself for too long now.I know enough about how to lose weight and healthy eating I just don't do it in practice and am continuing to gain weight and risk kidney disease and eye sight loss as well as heart attack and stroke.I am depressed about it.I have to radically change my lifestyle.

Today I am coping with CBT principles (cognitive behavioral therapy) to guide my thinking. Also I've been asking God for guidance.

I think I am coping well. I am doing nothing. I want to recuperate and rest. I did a lot of house work yesterday. I can take today off.

I'm coping pretty well today. Mania's in the process of fading away. I can handle most loud and surprising noises with grace, was able to drive for several longer trips with my wife as my co-pilot and helped my wife coach my daughter through trouble.

Heavy on the anxiety meds today and low on food. But I was only lying down in my bed for maybe half an hour this morning around 11. I got a long list written out which I feel pretty positive about and I made it to the grocery store.

Today I have been coping by sharing a lot of things with my voices, such as exploring the internet about astronomy & other things. I know that people who don't have voices can't understand. So I guess I probably seem "abnormal" to them. But it's my reality, & today was a better day because we had some positive mutual experiences. And I am very grateful for that.

I'm doing well today. I slept well and I'm in a good mood. I'm just keeping busy this morning, which is helping. I have a few chores I have to deal with, but it's not too bad. I'll mainly relax today.
