I have had a very difficult day... I had to take my kids to an appointment and stop quickly at the store afterward, and I feel enraged at every interaction with strangers. So I decided to stay home and watch my son's school concert on a livestream tonight, which helped me at least calm down a little bit. I didn't have much choice today because my kids' father was traveling for work, but in the future I think I will have to remember that I can't handle more than one outing in a day, and try to plan accordingly so I don't miss my kids' events.

Today I have been playing games and reading. I've been vaping a lot too. I've tried to cut my nicotine back. But I think I will bump it up again. I'm just very stressed at the moment. Too much going on.

I was doing ok but now I’ve kind of crashed. It’s been 6 weeks now and still no period. Also I have a really bad sore throat and maybe it’s anxiety but can I really be sure at this point?

I mean, I didn’t end up IP. So I guess maybe I handled things decently??? Or else I just wasn’t being honest. But still I handled things on my own as I knew I could.

Very trying day. Panic buying at work, people acting stressed and anxious worried about c virus. Think both my volunteer jobs will be put on hold because of c virus precautions. Also worried about my relatives in at risk groups.

Coping but on verge of tears a couple of times.

Kind of slow today at work and lots of people not at the site. I'm not surprised. Some activity at work for me today; and I feel very thankful for any little thing that happens.

People seem down and a bit tensed. I feel like I'm in the black clouds. It's not any better at home. I've been through disastrous times before but none of them seemed as bad as this one. Trying to cope.

One of the stupid reasons I‘m having a tough time is because this show I like called Henry Danger is ending after 5 years. The last episode is on Saturday. I know it’s not a big deal especially right now, but I mean 5 years is kind of a long time for a TV show and a very long time for a kids show.

Been coping by playing my game and reading. Also did some cooking to distract myself.

On and off PC, minor household chores, working up to going to the pharmacy....but watching the ducks on the pond out back from the upstairs window is probably the most therapeutic...it is mating season and they are lively

I am a little upset that the coronavirus song (handwashing one) has been removed from alexa, as I quite liked using that when I washed my hands

been struggling a bit with voices too, and anxieties about the meeting I don't want to attend (but have to)

but I've kept myself distracted with things I enjoy

wednesday is a good day for me I get to listen to a favorite podcast

Been coping by chatting with my sister. It's good to have someone to talk to about all this craziness.

I will be studying for a final, then an appt with my T, then when I come home I get to meet the new family puppers.

Who wouldn't want to cope with a new puppy? :P

I found out today that because of this virus outbreak, the woman might not be able to come for my meeting on wednesday

she has yet to email me to confirm a diffrent date or to ask if we can do it via phone

sort of frustrated... I needed this (even though I don't like the company)

I'm very stressed today. I'm vaping extra. And I'm trying to power through my tasks that I have to do.

Okay, trying to adapt to social distancing, that's fine, trying not to read too much news - not doing so well on that.

I'm trying my darndest to cope. I think that we all. There are times when I think that I have the virus. It's all in my mind. I have no fever and non of the symptoms. But it's scary that people don't feel anything and then they have it.
