I’m struggling today with depression and anxiety. I did get all my laundry done. I also showered. and I’m annoyed at my mom but I haven’t lashed out at her. I just took half my night meds and some Advil. This was the first time today I took pain meds. I’m not in a ton of pain but I was reaching in and out of the washer and dryer probably a total of 10 times. So I was starting to get a bit achy. I took 4 Xanax again today. I’m going to run out unless I can get it filled a few days early. Or else I’ll have to start cutting them in half. Overall today my coping skills and my Xanax didn’t work very well. But I don’t think I did as bad as I think I did.

I think I'm coping better today than I did yesterday & recently.

I'm rearranging my schedule so it's helping to calm me down. I'm less anxious and a little more hopeful.

Busy at work today and short staffed, it felt like everything was happening all at once at several points. But we coped and I got through it.

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?

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.

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.

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?

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.
