I've been coping ok today. I had a good amount of anticipatory anxiety but I managed. My physical symptoms are ok today.

I feel like I coped okay today. It’s hard to soar with the eagles when you’re surrounded by turkeys though. ...& we get to do it all again tomorrow...

Weird old couple of days, my H has covid and not very well, it’s quite stressful with all the infection precautions on top of that but I think we’re doing as okay as possible. No fun sleeping on the sofa though.

Oh my goodness, @Discombobulated, I'm sorry! Sending wishes filled with good energy from the cosmos.

I was managing fine but now I feel really crappy mental health wise. Its most likely just nerves about tommorow but I'm having all these intrusive thoughts I don't like having.

Trying to walk my dog on longer walks today, but it's really hot. I listened to some music. I'm cooking a pork loin that should feed me for 5-6 days. Otherwise just trying to get through the day.

I coped well although I'm not sure I'm doing my follow up care correctly. I think I was sitting in bed the wrong way most of the afternoon. So I'm kind of in pain right now. I can use more ice and take more tylenol in a bit. Mental health wise I am doing much much better then I expected.

Emotions are all over the map today. I felt a little happy when we were on our long walk this morning, and then I felt guilty for feeling happy. Then a long period of numbness, followed by a crazy crying spell. Now I'm anxious about not doing anything right. Not coping well today. Tried music. Nope. Tried walking. Nope. Reached out to my friend. Nope. Grief sucks.

My neck is ok as long as I don't cough or sneeze or bend over. My stomach pain is rough but manageable as long as I don't eat. I can go between 6 and 15 hours without eating but I obvioiusly still need to eat. My sister and brother in law came over for a bit and I thought they were being judgemental but I think they are actually just concerned. I am looking a bit on the thin side and I've had a lot of issues going on recently. Overall I didn't cope badly today.

I am sorry you are on an emotional roller coaster. It is not easy you are so right. Personally I tend to neglect eating and it only amplifies the emotional swings. If I eat high carb meals I am on a sugar high then after a couple hours come crashing down. I am trying to get into a routine of eating healthy meals every couple hours so I do not have dramatic swings of my blood sugar and moods. It seems to be helping so far. All the best to you @CANDC __________________ Super Moderator Community Support Team "Things Take Time" |

Hi @CANDC we live in a fairly small place so not so easy to distance, I wasn’t too concerned as I had it last year and didn’t infect my family so knew it wasn’t a done thing we’d get it from him. However he’s been coughing a lot more than I did so I was aware of that.
We all wore masks (just the cheap surgical ones) and tried to stay in different rooms as much as possible, especially first few days and I slept in the living room, we have all the windows open too. He got waited on hand and foot lol because I didn’t want him touching everything too. Oh and I upped the cleaning regime and disinfected touch surfaces regularly but wasn’t going out anyway so kept me from getting bored. He’s day 5 from testing today so we’re easing up a bit. Think I’ll get back in my own bed tonight! |

I behaved like someone with alters, and had an amazingly successful day. I find it telling. When I deny them, my life falls apart.

I'm doing ok today. I was a bit tired this morning but I'm fine now. I'm getting my laundry done later then usuaul but at least its getting done. I don't think my neck requires me to be cautious anymore. It doesn't hurt and I didn't get the swelling or bruising they talked about. I could have been more productive today but my worrying and anxiety and mood swings were under control.

Feeling some anxiety and stress, my son now has covid too and so there’s no one to pick me up from my hospital appointment this week (I won’t be discharged unless someone collects me) but I spoke to my dad and he’s going to come for me. I’m so grateful but it’s all been a bit much for me and I had a few tears earlier. There’s other stuff going on too and I feel like I have a lot of head noise.
I do get overwhelmed quite quickly. I try to compartmentalise but when one thing happens after another I don’t cope so well. |
