How are you coping today? #4

My AC is out for the next week. But I have a window unit in the bedroom. I'm awake at night while it's cool and then I sleep all day while it's hot.

I'm so sorry, @TunedOut! That is painfully sad. God bless him & you.

I didn’t cope too well today and my mom is worried about me but I did figure out what one of my issues was so I was able to fix that particular problem.

I'm not coping very well today, crying a lot, but grateful for quite a number of things, especially the privilege of being here.

I’m really struggling. I just broke up with my bf yesterday cause I’m sober and he’s not. My heart hurts. It wasn’t the only reason I broke up with him , however it was the main reason.

I'm not coping well. I have no one IRL. No one who cares or who will help me out. I'm all alone in this world. I'm nothing and I'm pretty useless. Nothing I ever do works.

We care for you and wish there was more we could do to help you! You are part of the PC community! You are not useless! Please do not speak negative words over your life. It is OK to just rest when we are tired. Sleep is healing. I appreciate you and am glad you are here.

I have had the most unproductive day in the world. I'm actually wondering why I even bothered getting dressed

not had a good day at all and coping pretty poorly

I think I've been doing a little bit better today at coping. But I haven't accomplished anything yet today. I hope I do at least something, anything.

Ugh my knees are killing me… worked out again today and I may have overdone it.

I coped very well today. my anxiety was low and I actually went out of my house. But I took a muscle relaxer about 3.5 hours ago to help with post op muscle pain, and man those things are more intense then opiates. I am super relaxed and I can’t wake up for more then a few minutes at a time and I feel like I’m tripping on LSD. But I’m not like hungover because I don’t have the anxious feeling like I do when starting a new psych med. I just feel kinda trippy and I want a giant burrito.

Well as some of you may know I broke up with my bf of 1 year last week because of lifestyle differences. I wanted to get sober, he didn’t. I talked to him today because I was missing him and he told me in no uncertain terms while harm reduction was a goal, sobriety definitely was not. He took offense at my calling marijuana a drug . He asked me if I still wanted to take a trip next month and I told him I didn’t have an answer for him.

I'm tired after doing a light task. I have to fix myself something to eat. I don't have the energy. I will find a bag of frozen vegetables and put it in the microwave. That's how I'm coping.

not well. i started getting more sleep and for some reason that brought back the feelings of guilt over my bunnies. they have all passed on now but the guilt lingers. i did my best to care for them but i should have re-homed them as i didn't have a yard. i was so worried they would be stuck in a cage if i rehomed them and i didn't want them to feel abandoned, so i kept them. and i got so caught up in caring for them i wasn't thinking straight. they were free-roam at my place. i did try to move to a place with a yard but that fell through. i even quit my job when one of them got injured so i could take care of him, but for some reason i feel i should have done more. i sacrificed so much for them. i had been able to put the guilt on the back burner but it has come back. i had sought pet loss counseling but there must be deeper issues here. i have to find a way to cope with this. ack.

I didn’t cope very well today. I lied around in bed a lot of the day and my emotions weren’t very controlled. I am glad I got my room cleaned though and all my food wrappers and dishes thrown out and put in the sink and the bed made. It’s nice when things are clean.

Well, I went to the store this morning, & I had a nice walk. So I think I'm coping ok.

There is a lot of drama going on in my family right now which is effecting our lives in significant ways. I am now hesitant to give specific information because I do not want to make any judgements about anything. Though it has reached the point that changes are happening and more are coming, I do not want to give commentary or speculate about the future. I am just trusting that it will all work out.

I'll be praying & wishing & hoping for you, @TunedOut.

Well last few days I've been dealing with pain and that's worn me down, work is difficult because my job requires a lot of bending and squatting so it tends to aggravate. I'm dosing up on painkillers. Anyhow that's life. In the staff room chat was almost everyone is dealing with physical issues of some sort.

I'm also worrying about a family member, for reasons I won't divulge. Again that's life and it will be what it'll be regardless of my worrying.

On the upside got my 2nd vaccine! And just had a very simple but delicious lunch of rice and beans.

I rely so much on tv, I really do

today, a nikilodion show that I liked (spyders) came to the end of it's second season, and while they've left it open for a third season (in fact they
ended on a cliffhanger), I was really sad and broke down crying- it's about some people who solve a mystery, that's all it is for half an hour a day) but
I miss it. all ready

I want spyders back blah!

I am getting my baby box on friday, but I am no longer looking forward to it. I suppose with all the poor eating, lack of sleep, abandonment,, seeing a
baby doll with a bottle in her mouth isn't exactly the solution to all my problems

but I have wanted this for so long, so hopefully when it does come I will actually use it and not throw it in a corner

Things are just straight up not working out today. From insurance issues to therapy issues. Lunch was gross. My new phone case didn’t fit my phone. I’m trying to hang on but it’s been tough today.

Feeling depressed despite everything I do to help.

Riding out the pain today but work was just urgh.

Made a nice meal tonight, and had a good phone chat with a friend who lives in residential accommodation and I haven't been able to see for some time.

Bought myself a download of an album I loved 35 years ago - it's making me feel happy and a bit sad at the same time. Does that make sense?

Somewhat better. Slowly crawling out of my current depressive hole of indecision.

Yes, it makes sense. I think the word for this is nostalgia.
