How are you coping today? #6

I'm pretty sad & look forward to a better time.

My moods and anxiety were in check today. I have these weird muscle aches in both my legs. When I was on vacation in August and walking almost a mile each way then walking all all over town for a few days in a row I was perfectly fine. I didn't do any of that stuff so I don't know what caused this. I am a bit concerned I am coming down with something, although I am not panicked. But even sitting down slowly really hurts. Tylenol helps. I am prone to blood clots due to my meds but I don't think you can get blood clots in both legs. Plus I'm tired despite sleeping well last night. So idk.

I have similar experiences, @Mountaindewed. I think it's something in the brain doing this, like it's acting out or something?

I'm just slightly worried because the last time I had muscle aches in my legs like this was in Janaurary 2020 and I am pretty sure I had Covid pretty badly.

I'm struggling, but doing my best to get help. I have been chatting on here and made an appointment with a new therapist for Thursday.

I am vaping again. I quit a year ago. But things are so stressful, I don't know how else to cope. My therapist suggested a "Worry Journal". I have been trying that too.

My leg muscle aches are still there but I don't have any other symptoms. I think I have lab work tommorow. Its a total blood count test or whatever the correct name is. So if something funky is going on with my blood I'll know. I feel ok besides that. I'm kinda tired and my stomach was off before, but anxiety and mood wise I feel ok.

Just hangin' out waiting for the day to be over. Oh boy, it's almost time for my afternoon Clonazepam. Now that's exciting!

I'm coping with my Worry Journal.

I’m picking at my cuticles.

I’m coping by reminding myself this too shall pass.

I'm all over the place mood wise today. Earlier I was ready to just give up, now I am okay. I'm cycling today. Hopefully I can get into therapy soon. I really need it.

Not so well… i feel like every day is overshadowed by me hating my body… and i feel so bad when i eat when i feel emotional in the day. It’s like I can’t stop beating myself up, i hate this…

I agree she had a bit of dignity and did not get into all the mud the younger royal family seem to get into. @CANDC

Not doing wonderful.

like any other day

not coping..

Woke with a slight panic

I went to my new therapist for my mental health today. I didn't feel overwhelmed today. I been decluttering a lot in my life today.

I felt like this myself last night.

I think I did better today.

I'm coping by smoking and journaling.

I wish I could stop feeling that the world will end after the queen's funeral

it's really annoying..

Connecting online

I’m coping by breaking things down bit by bit.

With the nicotine patch and Nicorette Gum. I'm drinking frappuccinos.
