How are you coping today? #4

I don’t think I even tried today let alone tried my best. I took another 5 Xanax along with a slew of other psych meds, pain meds, and vitamins to try to get my anxiety under control. I ate decently but not a lot. I limited my caffeine to one glass of coffee at 1AM. So that was ok. Basically I’m just really struggling and eventually someone’s gonna have to find out because I’ll be out of Xanax in a week and I can’t get it refilled until the 29th. So that means I have to deal with just one a day and I’m wondering how that will even be possible. Like won’t I have withdrawals going down so fast like that?

just pissed and about to cry and very defeated! i must be a dam lightning rod for all that's been happening lately . and things could get way worse tomorrow
[ i just can't do this ]

I am definitetly coping better today, mostly because of these forums. I'm not doing all the things I want to do but I do feel stronger than I've felt in a while.

Im doing a lot better today. I got some things figured out and I’ve only taken 2 Xanax today. I had a lot of diet soda so I haven’t eaten much today. It’s getting kind of late and I haven’t eaten dinner and I am not very hungry either. My stomach feels really full for some reason despite mostly just having liquids. I had a small bag of frozen grapes maybe that’s why I’m so full. I read in my Noom stuff that grapes make you feel really full. Overall my anxiety and depression is down today.

I feel really horrible. My sister friend was so hateful toward me yesterday and then today I went to get my vaccine and was face mask shamed by a nurse because she disapproved of the mask that I was wearing. I felt really hurt a d was put into tears.

So far today I've been enjoying my coffee & playing games.

I’m coping ok today. I’m worried I overdid it though this weekend with lifting and carrying stuff I shouldn’t have. I just got told today I shouldn’t lift things for another 4 weeks. But I lifted some 12 packs of sodas, and I lifted some other heavy stuff I probably shouldn’t have. I’m in pain but I’m trying not to worry because my doctor said things look fine. I have this other health concern too but I can’t do anything until tomorrow. This is legit and not normal but I’m not sure it’s serious and I can’t tell my mom about it because it’s weird. I’ve only taken one Xanax today because I kind of have to cut way down on them in order to get through until my next refill. Right now I’m shaking a bit I can’t tell if I’m cold or I just need a Xanax.

hugs to you, jrae

hugs, Buffy. I hope tomorrow is better for you.

I'm doing better. I went to the gym this morning and walked / jogged. I had a zoom mtg tonight that completely did not go as planned. But its ok. Tonight I knitted, listened to comforting music, and got a little humor therapy from my Mom.

not too bad.

I finished my story about the baby getting ready for bed (which hopefully is going in the box), and I am waiting for delivery of a new computer chair that is hopefully going to help with my backpain. I'm going to completely ditch the one I'm in now, and swap it for the new one. I really hope it helps me a little

the biggist thing bothering me at the moment is the fact that a guy who told me that he was glad I have a bad back and was glad I slipped still has his job at the mental health place even after I've reported it

do people not listen?. really?

So far today I seem to be coping ok.

Am doing better and feeling like I just want to rest and relax and have more fun. am all too happy to be in a cooler air conditioned room.

[never mind]

I had a lot of anxiety today. Therapy made me feel physically and mentally gross. I hope I can get in with the new one soon. I coped ok with my anxiety and my moods were under control. My depression isn’t too bad. My physical pain is getting there a bit. I’ll probably take a Tylenol in a few minutes.

Hey, friend, whatta mean "never mind"? Thank you for coming back!

The last thing I want is to be a burden, so I removed my post.

Thank you friend. I hope you are well.

I had anxiety yesterday for a variety of reasons, but I coped. I'm not a natural multi tasker and I felt overwhelmed with a few things, plus my husband kept firing requests at me which I asked him not to do when I'm busy - he's known me 27 years now, so really he should know.

Other than that good, and I did actually achieve quite a lot. Today I'm planning to be less frantic.

it is official. I am getting a baby box this time next friday!. super excited about it, in fact it's been a while since I've been excited about anything so much.

I got a new chair today which hopefully is going to help with my back. it has more support, and this one does have arms so we'll see.... sounds promising..

rained all night yesterday, but it's what we needed to cool the humid air. think we might get some more rain today, still looks really cloudy

I wished that I knew how to feel better. Lately I been having really bad days especially this past week. It started this past weekend has continued on throughout the week. I feel like everyone is ganging up on me in a mobbing form this week.

I’m sad to say is almost 7 years I can’t see my kids, and I need someone to hit me with a belt or I belt myself on the back and I ask for forgiveness. Is there a medical term for this, any other way to resolve this.

I was productive during both of my appointments. I got a few questions answered and I also got told some stuff I didn’t want to know. I’m kind of annoyed I didn’t mention a couple things to them. Overall today my moods were kinda bad but it was mostly just anxiety. I wasn’t crabby. My physical symptoms have been rough today and I’m kind of concerned it isn’t just anxiety because I’ve taken a lot of **** these last couple weeks and I’m wondering if it’s starting to catch up to me now.

Just barely holding on outside of work. Work is still a treadmill routine.

A very choppy changey up and downy day but spent some time talking with an old friend which was good!

My son sent an email yesterday evening (via his laptop) that his wallet and phone were stolen while he was sleeping. When you are homeless, these kinds of things happen more frequently. Plan to help him today....
