How are you coping today? #3

I’m pretty unmotivated but my moods aren’t terrible. I’ve been reading which has been a huge distraction. Too much of a distraction actually since I’ve also neglected things today. but I think it’s ok at this time to be really involved in a hobby.

I think I'm doing ok today. I have been sort of coasting along, so that means not having a stressful day, & I'm thankful about that.

Okay day. I briefly saw someone I hadn't seen for a long time, just a quick chat but it lifted my spirits.

I'm coming horrible last night and today. I felt shaky trembling. I had the cries.

I've been sleeping all day. I haven't felt well physically or emotionally. I wish I could just stay asleep. I keep waking up. But I don't want to be up.

I am feeling very bad.
I am feeling very weak . Thoughts keep on coming.

Feeling nostalgic and it's hard
Missing life at home and dad, Missing life and people
Sipping hot tea trying to calm down

I am going to the market today, so I'm preparing myself with positive self talk, & I'm visualizing myself back home again, feeling glad that everything is fine.

I woke up sick today. But I took medicine and hydrated myself. Now I'm feeling better. I've been playing Star Wars. It's been nice. I've also been drinking Jamba juices. That was my treat to myself. It's helped.

Surprisingly good day, it rained all day and is dark but I had work to do at home and got on with it.

I’ve been doing good today. I have almost all my laundry down. I just can’t shake this feeling like there is something wrong with me. Physically I mean. When I went to get something from downstairs and I came back the cat was lying exactly where I was sitting and it disturbed me because I know animals can sense diseases and infections. Even my unfriendly hissing cat who hates me is now hanging around me. It’s just unsettling.

I think I am coping well. I started on my chores and I've been journaling. I'm also enjoying coffee and relaxing with my cats.

I usually feel good (I do right now except for very minor soreness in my knees) when I wake up in the morning. However, evenings are another matter. My legs and former injury get more sore later in the day and I have restless legs and anxiety at bedtime while feeling deeply tired. I went back on my old Gabapentin prescription (I stopped taking it because it made it easier to gain weight but now I am not that overweight anymore). I am just going to let my doctors know (I see the surgeon and my psychiatrist this week). I needed some relief and the Gabapentin is helping. I think part of the problem is that I am deeply nervous about my PET scan on Tuesday.....

hanging in there. very glad my migraine meds worked today .
still super nervous though.....

I can't
I am angry, sad, frustrated
I wish I knew

That is a lot to be going through. You are from my perspective doing amazingly well considering what you are dealing with. Good luck with the scan - I will be thinking of you on Tuesday.

Coping okay today. I would describe my mood as a little brittle but in all honesty these are trying times and just getting out and doing my job is enough.

Relaxed and watched some good TV when I got home and ready for bed now.

I felt sad and lonely when I woke up. But I just had some hot coffee and a veggie burger. I feel a lot better now. I will try to play a new game today.

With way too much self medication and not enough offline support. The online support has been great.

Doing much better today.

Felt less brittle/fragile today. Every day brings new challenges but I guess we're all rolling with them.

Well I found this book called Un**** Yourself, its an audible book which ive never tried before but i must say its bloody brilliant. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you take a listen and its toally free.

Not very happy with myself. Stuck in a rut of old emotional wounds, some of my own making, all wrong to address with the living...telling myself to shut up mostly, punctuated by doing dishes, wishing the view (a nice one) cheered me, even the sun seems cruel today...................but, in an hour, I might be dancing.

Accepted my emotions will tank pretty much daily. I can try to do things to lift myself.

Not too great today. I am listening to some comedic podcast but it's not helping that much.
