How are you coping today? #4

I just got an injection in my wrist. It's quite painful at the moment. I'll cope with Tylenol and a nap.

Today I ended up coping pretty good. I started out the day experiencing sad & bad things, but things improved. I wouldn't say I'm happy now, but very grateful for some improvements.

I’m tired l, I’m hungry, need to eat dinner soon, and get some clothes in the dryer. Weather was awesome today so enjoyed a nice walk with my dog after work.

I haven’t gone off the deep end yet. Which is good. I’ve been ****ed over but I’ve also taken care of something that was bothering me. I still don’t have my antibiotics yet though. Walgreens is so slow. I went on a quick walk though to boost my mood. It helped my mood but it didn’t help my exhaustion. Basically I’m just hanging on today.

I coped by going for a drive. It's a pretty day. I'm getting ready to sit on my patio for a while.

Today has been really horrible. Everything I was gang up on was something I never did but what my sister and niece and her boyfriend did. I feel really down today.

i'm not coping well - too stressed, too upset, too busy, too exhausted, too everything almost! been snacking a bunch today, so maybe that helped.

I've been reading & posting here while enjoying my coffee, & asking questions on the internet. I think I'm coping pretty good right now.

I'm coping by playing my game and taking breaks to deal with chores.

The physical loneliness is depressing. I actually haven't had a meaningful conversation with a real life person in 7 months. It's my own doing though, but on the whole I'm actually coping quite well (I think).

Will be making breakfast soon and getting ready for my workday. I am only working 3 days a week (usually 7 AM to 2 PM). Still have so much to learn (especially all the names of the people I see and serve), my new job is still a challenge for my body and brain.

Today was not so great. Just feel dark anddepressed but tomorrow is another day.

I'm coping with DBT/CBT and fresh air.

Not too good at the moment. Pretty sure my time is running out.

Edit: Had a nap with my dogs. Then a nice walk with them and some lunch. Finally got some errands completed.

I’m trying my best today. I’m still just hanging on. I took 20 mil extra of one of my meds and I think I’ll take another Valium. I’ve been a bit needy today with my mom. I asked to go to the bakery this morning. But then I was ok and I had to go for a Covid test and I asked to go to Sonic on our way back. I just feel like a burden on her and I feel like I’m taking up her time and spending her money. I feel like it may get worse after Friday when recovery will take 6 weeks and I’ll have weight restrictions and stuff. But I am going to try very hard for that not to happen.

But honestly I’ve been a complete asshole and even though I have a lot going on with the sudden termination of my therapist and figuring out the new one does not mean I can just run the house hold the way I’ve been doing.

Yeah I need a 4th Valium for sure and a lot of water. I need to know just how much money I owe my mom so I can pay her back. Then my grocery shopping this weekend will all be delivery or pickup so it’s simple.

I've coped today with a long nap, doing some chores and playing my games.

I slept well last night for the first time in weeks. Therefore I didn’t need a bunch of caffeine this morning which would have made me anxious. And then I didn’t need to take my geodons early or double up on any Valium. So I guess I figured out it all comes down to sleep for me. And I wish I could figure out how to sleep better all the time.

I'm coping today with some stronger painkillers!

I stayed in bed with my cats most of the day. Today has not been a good day.

I'm waiting for my lesson to start. I usually stay awake at night these days since I sleep during the day. I feel ok. I just have a few hours to teach today. I am happy overall but have a lot more classes now. I should be happier now but the stress of doing all of my administrative tasks is getting to me at times. I spend way too much time on them, but it is necessary since I write my next lesson plans in these messages I send to my students. I should be going insane but am calm about it. I have to survive. I will take my medication after this and knock myself out. I feel some stress but am matter of factly just dealing with it. Such is life. I have to find ways to pay my high taxes. I could move away from here, but it is the same no matter where I live here in this country. I like where I live so I can't complain. I hope to survive and need to work more. But, for now, I will go with the flow and be stable. My health is a priority, not money. I am surprised that I have done as much I am doing now. I am doing well. I won't divulge my problems to anybody. So, life continues and is like climbing a mountain. Hopefully, I will reach the summit one day, then I can cruise for a while.
