I'm coping by getting some hard project work out of the way so I can relax. I'm journaling at the moment and I will play games later.

Well, I have not done very well, but yesterday I did better, & this morning I am trying to be strong, using distraction, reading good things from the lnternet, etc.

Not feeling well so after work just slept for about 3 hours, hopefully I’ll still be able to sleep tonight.

On the positive side I watched a couple of beautiful natural documentaries which did help calm and soothe me.

Hugs everyone.

I didn't sleep the greatest. Plus my med mangement was pretty ******. My anxiety was awful this morning. Therapy was pretty succesful after the first few minutes. I have a med hangover which is my main issue and I thought greasy chinese food would help. I ate 2.5 steamed wontons before getting full. I'm going to waste away into nothing the way I've been eating lately. At least I feel somewhat better mental health wise after the wontons but I still feel very tired.

My med management is better today. My anxiety was rough this morning but it seems better now. I'm acting sick but I'm just severely sleep deprived and I am having really bad hot and cold flashes. But I feel fine otherwise.

at least I did have something to smile about today:

.
I have just figured out the lyrics to a song were not what I thought

I thought the lyrics were, " I will shower you"

turns out the lyrics are I wish I were you. lol

At the moment I think I'm coping a little bit better. I've been putting some mental effort into conjuring up some strength in myself after a little bit of sleep.

I felt a ton better this morning. Then around 10:30 I started feeling crappy physically again. I was very tired so I tried a mountain dew which didn't help. I have a bad headache and tylenol hasn't been helping. I've been lying down a lot of the day. I just now ate some chicken tenders so I don't feel as nauseated but my head is still killing me and I'm still exhausted and unable to get out of bed. I've been doing laundry but then just putting the stuff from the dryer into laundry baskests. I'll hang it up and put it away when I get the energy. I have not had much to eat since Wednesday but I am not feeling much hunger. I am feeling thirsty but mostly for water or unsweetened iced tea so I'm not drinking a ton of calories.

It has been more than 3 month working consistently without taking any break. But I never start my day without meditating. This helps me feel calm and active throughout the day.

I kinda want to set up a sooner pdoc appointment but I feel like this is more of an in person therapy related issue. Even eating just a can of soup made me feel better then I have felt all day. I feel like I need to work on my eating habits more with my therapist then have my meds adjusted. I coped ok today. I even got back into reading. But certain issues I just need help with.

Struggling with many different things today, feeling overwhelmed and trying hard to talk myself up. I think I’ll watch some comfort TV later.

I feel right annoyed at amazon

I was meant to get a delivery on the 9th april, and it is still not here. the delivery tracking tells me nothing, and the seller is being unresponsive

that aside, not eating properly, rested for 5 weeks and fallen way too often, but yeah.... I'm here I guess

I have restricted food today because I wasn't feeling good. And I've taken all my prescribed meds early because of anxiety which means I'm going to be on my zoom therapy appointment completely baked. I'm sure she'll be happy about all this. The only way to save my *** is if I can take a short nap before the appointment. If I can't wake up from the nap then I'll either need to explain myself real good or prepare for possibly going IP.

My anxiety was pretty tough today. Probably due to last night and the caffeine I had this morning. I only ate my safe foods but at least I ate. I spent most of the day curled up in a ball reading because of the anxiety. But I don't think that was necessairly a bad way to cope today. I am feeling better now though.

My mom, well actually nobody knows just how bad things really are for me. My meds arent working anymore. Its like I'm not even on them anymore. Food doesnt taste good anymore plus I can't eat much in general and my head always hurts and theres just all this anxiety that never stops no matter what I do. It used to be just when the weather was bad. Now its happening when the weather is nice. And my valiums go straight through me. Forget about leaving the house. I can't even go into a gas station for a soda. People who are pushing me to go back to work right now are nuts. I nean, things are bad. Literally nothing brings me joy anymore. At least I'm over my transference therapist or else I'd be off the deep end for sure if I still had thoughts and feelings for her.
