I started taking Stratera 5 days ago or so.
I have not had a set routine of things to do for quite sometime now.
I am trying to find out how to structure my day (Been on disability now for years, but I was taking adrenal before it started being in short supply)
I know I have a big issue with motivation, following set routines, "laziness"...

I am not coping today, I am stressing about utilizing the focus that Strattera started giving me with the fact that I'm still sleeping a lot.

I've been not coping the best. Using some less than healthy coping skills.

I've been very frustrated lately by my inability to cope positively with my emotions. I am really going to try to do better. I hope my new therapist can help me.

I hope it all works out for you... Maybe you can look into 12 step groups, there are a wide variety of them. My wife and I belong to AA, we have been going for quite a few years now... The fellowship is really helpful...
Good luck.

It’s been a few months since I had any emotional dysregulation! He was the trigger, and I have removed the trigger now. Just wow… This is mind blowing for me to see that while I do have an underlying health issue that caused the ED, it was him who triggered it. I don’t have ED reactions in general, not even from my triggering mother. I get upset by her, but not ED. Well, I guess I just have to look back and say it was just very unfortunate that my partner was such a trigger due to his behavior. I’m not going to put myself into a relationship again feeling as broken as I do now. So I should be alright? Three months and counting…

Feeling kind of scared at the moment. Doing some breathing. Going to work on a DBT workbook soon. Try to do one lesson.

If I think about it I probably don’t deserve many of the things in my life either but I’ve come to t feel it’s not about deserving or otherwise. It’s possibly about doing our best in the moment with what resources we’ve got at that time. I’m still developing those thoughts. Peace to you.
