Thank you
I am trying to handle the fact that years ago i used to even depict myself as powerless in some circumstances that I was the only responsable for

But nonetheless i am sad and feel even more unable to fix in the current situation

Hate myself but trying not to spread negativity around
Some day it is harder

I understand how you feel. I feel like this all the time.

I felt like an adult for once when I thought our smoke detector went off. I stayed calm and I looked for anything that was burning and then called my mom who was at the pharmacy. It turned out it was the carbon monoxide going off I guess by accident since the other one was ok and neither has gone off since. Eh at least I stayed calm.

I'm coping by using the computer. I have tons of bookmarks, so I will be exploring the mess I made. I have a small little project of getting my cell phone and laptop together. I have my iPad all figured out. I have my cell phone figured out. I fell so much like this is going to be put to a finish. The computer will probably take years to feel alright with. So I guess I am putting this to a finish.....I will be happy when I can feel less compelled to worry about this minor detail of life.

It’s still stressful and understaffed at work, and no wonder I ended up with a migraine. Anyhow, it’s my days off now and I’m part time thank goodness, trying not to ruminate but of course I’m a champion ruminator.

Anyhow migraine is over with meds and I’m resting, nothing important to do, so I’m going to focus on relaxing.

I had both go off on me when I first moved in not knowing that is why I started getting horrible migraine. Thankfully my neighbor heard the alarm and had been familiar with my home to inform us what was wrong.

I still have this lack of motivation/energy to do basically everything but work out every other day. I shower and brush my teeth when I need to and I have to drag myself to my pointless doctors appointments. I'm going on an overnight trip tommorow and I am not looking forward to it. I don't feel particularly depressed. Just this lack of energy thing.

I'm journaling.

It still a great idea.

I'm better this evening than this morning for sure. Kinda took a mental health day. Sport, Food, Chill, for the most part.

I’m super chilled today, got lots of outdoor time ahead of tomorrow’s predicted bad weather. Yesterday’s extra sleep helped a lot.

Mountaindewed · Dec 07, 2022 at 04:58 PM

I gave zero shits about anything because I wasn't feeling good. Therefore I coped today just fine.

I can only wish to be chilled.

I have the radio on the upbeat music station. It's so interesting because I can keep it on this station and get rid of my Apple Music. This means there are shifts in my mindset probably ! WOW

Awesome. Sometimes upbeat music is all that we need.

I woke up early and worked out. I got under my bed swept. Which was a disaster. I also got my freezer organized. Stuff was just piled on top of each other. Its very neat now. After about 2 months I got my laundry put away today. I had just been putting it in laundry baskets after it was finished drying. I can feel the prestiq improving my depression and anxiety. But I still feel so sick all the time from the side effects or something.

Sometimes it just the little things that make a big difference in a person life.
