I'm getting really bored which is turning into a depressed mood and have been burning my eyes out being online all day when it seems to be more quiet than usual everywhere I go. My battery is close to dying on this device. I've got my crochet and music, but I'll probably get bored, or rather, sorewith the crochet that I'll probably end up back on the pc...or just lay in bed staring at the ceiling. Sigh!

Edit: so probably not coping well today

I am in a state of crisis,I feel ashamed and shunned,I was attacked on another forum.
I got so low last night when I was being ganged up on,my mental health plummeted.
I have had feelings of agoraphobia come back and my CPTSD got triggered.
I am booked in for a Trauma and Recovery Workshop today,I bought ticket but I can't go I have to skip it,
I will get charged a non attendance fee but I am ill and can't make it through a whole days lectures with a room full of strangers
at a hotel.I am so low.I can't hope I have to stay home and hiberbate.

I'm stressed out this morning. I've been looking for remote work and can't seem to find anything that I can apply for. I haven't worked in years, which makes it hard to even get an interview. Not sure what I will do.

Coped well today, focussed on chores this afternoon and got ironing and cleaning done, everything smells nice.

I did a bit of study but finding it challenging, taking that one bit at a time.

Going to get the evening meal ready and reward my study and housework with some reading for pleasure.

Tried coping by cooking today. That helped for a while. Most of the day has been sad and stressful.

Doing well this morning. I've been playing my game and cleaning house. Both activities help calm me. Later I plan to read. I just have a relaxing day in mind. That will help.

I'm cooking this morning. It helps me feel better. It's quite rewarding. Doing fun things always helps me. I'll probably stay pretty active today. I plan to try some yoga later.

I coped by doing art this morning. I'll try to get some extra sleep now. I have an appointment today. The sleep will help calm me and help the time pass.

I feel like a dark cloud fell over me. I have to do mediation to calm myself down.

I'm coping okay but maybe I could be coping better. I've been anxious about some things going on in my life. I did get out of my house to get groceries. It helped distract me. And I'm going to the doctor's office later today, for a physical issue that was worrying me.

I think I'm doing my best. And I also realize I need to use my skills in this moment in time instead of checking online.

I don't even know if i can cope or can allow myself to do it
I've been stuck in a nightmare and can't get out of it...
Please let me have him back
I can't believe I lost him
I used to be such a jerk.... This winter I started praying for this nightmare to end

Getting better...I was upset earlier, I released the frustration from my soul. One must say “As as act of my will I choose to loose this frustration from my soul.” It works all the time...getting free from tension and life events. One can use any event (of emotion) to be free from; really helps me.

This afternoon I'm not coping as well. I'm tired but forcing myself to do chores. They have to be done. It's my responsibility. At least when I mark one of the list, it helps me feel a little better.

My mood is good but my main problems in terms of symptoms are being caused by my meds--drowsiness and increased appetite--and I'm struggling with these since yesterday and this has me a bit frustrated but I'm not giving into it and getting discouraged.

This morning was difficult. So I slept til noon. Then I started programming. That kept my mind off of things. Now I'm trying to relax with a cup of coffee.

Decided to minimize the fight or flight response. I’m distracting myself right now instead. I have relationship issues. I’m learning to accept and control my anger and frustration. This will pass. I am not in danger. It’s just unfortunate we can’t make it work.
