I think you should be friends with whoever you like!
My mom is the queen of judgement. It can get annoying at times although I do it too sometimes but not the way she does.

I’m doing ok today. I got coffee. I went to return something. My moods and anxiety were fine even with the change in plans this weekend. I don’t think I really want go anyways. So next weekend will be better since it will be warmer. It feels like a Friday though and it’s driving me a bit off. I’m pretty sure it’s because I had therapy on Monday and I used to have it on Tuesdays. I have to try to figure out if I want to tell the new one some stuff.

Bleurgh today, I exercised this morning but felt fatigued afterwards and had all the Neuro symptoms of migraine except the headache, so I slept it off. I still have the allodynia though.

Luckily it was my day off.

I feel stressed and upset today. I'm not coping very well. I'm trying to practice mindfulness but I keep getting distracted with upsetting thoughts.

I took one of my meds at 10:30 last night to help me fall asleep. So I was pretty anxious this morning. I took half of my night dose 20 minutes ago. I’m hoping to get my anxiety under control and then take the other half tonight and hopefully be back into a normal schedule with the med tomorrow. But I also think I OD on laxatives. Which are still not helping the situation. But I feel sick to my stomach right now and I’m also getting tired from the Geodon I just took. So I’ll probably need to take a nap or lie down.

I wish I could power nap for 15 minutes without meds but I seem to only be able to do that when it gets warmer out.

Worried about one of my children again after receiving a call from where that child works looking for them (they had not shown up for work). I had already been trying to talk to them via phone the day before (left a message). Sometimes they only return calls when they need something but I still have good reason to worry given their past history....

I'm coping better today. I'm working with a list of everything I have to do today. That's making things easier to deal with.

Yesterday was very challenging for me. I was running around helping my son and have a hard time distinguishing his needs verses when he is just taking advantage of me. Though my whole day was inconvenienced (I was gone from 9 AM--came home briefly then came home at 9 PM)--I did get my first Covid vaccination! Yea!

I'm coping with art therapy and mindfulness. It seems to be helping. I'm just a little bit anxious this morning. I may go meditate for a while.

Not well, I'm going thru a divorce(I don't want it) but my wife has made it very clear after 10 years her feelings have changed to much and there is nothing I can do to change anything. My anxiety has been thru the roof and I'm feeling very depressed. I will be moving back to my home state and the idea of how lonely it will be, is like an ever approaching nightmare. I have also helped raise her son(who is now 14) for the last 10 years so thats also something I'm very much going to miss. I'm just really lonely right now and I'm not to proud to admit I could use a helping hand.

My sister who hasn’t spoken to me in over two years finally texted me to congratulate my son on a college acceptance. She knows because she heard it from my mother.

I replied politely, even sent one additional response to show I do not have a chip on my shoulder (but I do).

It’ll never be the same with her again, but it’s cordial. I hate that this ever happened with her. If I had been able to realize at the time it happened, that she was going to treat me like that, I wish I’d have been able to just laugh it off and not get angry at her. But I couldn’t. It hurt too much.

So now all is moved on from and swept under the rug. Those relationships have changed, but they are not estranged thank God, because that was too much for me to bear.

It was so busy and crowded at work today - it's challenging to me not to get frazzled. But I made it - yay!

Im trying not to over think about a personal matter but it's fighting my instinct. My only way not to over think is not to think at all and zone out which is not good either.

Its a lazy Sunday. I haven't been to meditation group in a couple weeks now. I'm taking a break from it. Which is nice. Still meditating though.


I had some really cool ideas go through my head while I was driving today.


My desire today is to eat healthy.


Another sunny day.

I’m coping well today. I’m still doing good without having any coffee. My anxiety was bad for the majority of the day but I feel better now. I ate healthy. I actually watched silly TV instead of BSing online all day. I stayed out of bed. My moods are under control too.

I'm coping as best I can. I'm trying to distract myself with activities. It's helping some. I wish I had a PRN.

I think I'd be coping better if I was doing better physically. I watched call the midwife today, and watching the babies in it was calming. however, I'm in so much ****ing back pain, and not just that, my physical state in general is just going down hill. it doesn't take sherlock holmes here to realise that my body is just ****ed. I can see now why a life in a wheelchair was baught up as a possible future result of this ongoing ****.
