How are you coping today? #6

Breaking Dawn · Nov 11, 2022, 08:59 PM

Today got harder again, & I was fortunately able to use distraction here.

So tired and achy after my covid booster yesterday, not sick, just feel like I ran a half marathon when I definitely didn’t. Kept warm and slept a lot.

Buffy01 · Nov 12, 2022, 01:31 PM

I decided to ignore my niece when I went out to eat today.

Mountaindewed · Nov 12, 2022, 03:45 PM

I'm feeling about the same as yesterday. Tired and low energy and not too hungry. I took a nap for the second day in a row. I don't feel too depressed. Just under the weather physically for some reason. I guess I haven't felt 100% since I got covid on October 11th. Although I'm not sure I'd classify it as long covid.

Hope your discomfort is short-lived.

I almost got into it with my niece who once again disrespected my boundaries when she came in my bedroom and started going through my stuff.

Brego · Nov 12, 2022, 09:36 PM

I'm trying to use my cell phone less and less and less until I do not want to use it anymore, like old times. In the past I would rarely look at my phone and now I seem to look at it when I am really bored. I only have my sister, Mom, Dad, the primary care doc, and the psych doc in the contacts list. I think it's going to be so easy if I can utilize will power or find some way to state it to myself that I do not want to use it very much.

How old is she? Sounds like very immature behaviour on her part at any rate.

She is thirty six year old. She can be a bully.

Wow. wtf. I would even tell my neffew that that isn't okay until he listens, and he's not yet three. Pretty sure he'd get it, too. In fact I told him once not to draw into a folder and he got it right away.

Mountaindewed · Nov 13, 2022, 03:31 PM

I had pretty bad anxiety but it seems better now. Food is kind of an issue today. Advil and my gastro med have helped other issues I'm having. I'm hoping to make it out of my house for sure tommorow.

Breaking Dawn · Nov 13, 2022, 03:56 PM

Mostly hanging out here in the forums. I fixed a nice brunch.

Fireweed · Nov 13, 2022, 05:06 PM

I'm having a decent day. Not too stressed out or depressed; my anxiety is not at peak levels.

I know. Then late yesterday night she walk into my bedroom just to see what I had in my room and closet. All because I had showed my brother how much improvement I had done around my niece home.

For me, coping is two-headed serpent. It's coping with my symptoms and it's also coping with aloneness/loneliness. In those respects I'm coping pretty well these days, some days are more intense than others but I feel really quite optimistic and I feel supported, which I'm happy about. Sending out vibes of peace and love to everyone today.🙏🌠🌸🦜💕🌻🌠🙏

I'm coping by staying at home with my Mom and cherishing what I have.

Mountaindewed · Nov 14, 2022, 05:21 PM

I'm just focusing on getting into shape and stuff to distract me from my issues. I don't know if I'm taking it too far or not. Today was ok up until an hour ago. I'm in an awful lot of pain from my work out this morning and I'm pretty nauseated too. I don't know what I need right now. My rapid release tylenol went right through me and so did my pepto bismol capsules.

Buffy01 · Nov 15, 2022, 08:53 AM

I’m coping by learning new ways to deal with my feelings.

Amethyst_Stargazer · Nov 15, 2022, 03:18 PM

I'm feeling a lot better today, and I'm glad I'm not crying a lot.

This makes me really happy.

Mountaindewed · Nov 15, 2022, 05:16 PM

My physical pain sucks and so does my anxiety. My eating sucked because of my pain. I feel a bit of relief anxiety wise right now but its still being masked by the pain so I don't feel that much relief.

Brego · Nov 16, 2022, 12:25 AM

Cooking some soup and coming up with some new things to say when I try to talk to myself because I guess I have to cope with boredom and loneliness.

Buffy01 · Nov 16, 2022, 10:02 AM

I have been declutter to keep myself distracted from my hurt feelings.

It takes lots of time to break down a habit and started a new one.
