How are you coping today? #7

So, Mountaindewed, there's nothing over-the-counter that will do the same a Zofran? I just read on Drugs.com that it's not a good idea to take more than the doc suggests.

I'm a little worried about you, and hoping this all gets straightened out for you.

-----------------------------
I'm personally doing better than yesterday.

I have to try and remember, when husband goes into auto-mode, and does dumb things, it's often because he's feeling stressed, or is anticipating a lot of stress. We talked about it last night and he apologized right away, and explained where his head has been at, and how the week looks to be shaping up for him.

But I got out yesterday, made myself go and get a bunch of errands and shopping done.

So, all in all, it wasn't the disaster I was dreading.

Mountain we all hope you feel better soon, your wonderful

There is Dramamine ginger chews. They do actually work pretty well for both nausea and nausea related anxiety. I asked my mom if she would go pick me up a bag from Walgreens along with some more pepto bismol capsules.

I coped by taking a long nap at lunch.

My legs feel so weak and I am exhausted, I can barely keep my eyes open. I slept fine last night. I ate today but I'm really nauseated right now from lunch. Luckily my pharamacy is filling my zofran early so I should have it in a couple hours.

I'm wondering though when something is starting to become a bigger issue then I can deal with on my own and when I should see a doctor. I keep thinking this will pass but it doesnt. I know theres the vitamin D going on but does it make you feel this badly?

Been in tears all day got into a physical with my niece

I think if you’re very deficient in bit D it can make you feel bad, but if you’ve got other conditions and medication it’s usually best to check with a Dr. Did they give you any indication how long supplements will take to work?

I felt irked to get a text from work asking me to come in during my holidays, I texted back no, it isn’t my fault if they are unable to manage staffing and I’ve stepped in enough times, I’m taking my full holiday. Had a little battle with myself over this though - I don’t like saying no and they know it.

I’m doing better at saying no!

Well done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am not having the emotional dysregulation crying meltdown panic attacks anymore! I said my piece, albeit angrily, and disengaged. I am sticking to one direction now, as this way is how I truly feel. He keeps acting in antagonizing ways instead of bridge building ways, so I am continually feeling the path of separation. I have spoken with a new therapist who validated to me the intentionally harmful things he did, and the gravity of it all is really hitting me now. It is interesting how the journey through therapists transpired. When I was shocked in trauma as it originally happened, I was deemed as the one with the mental health problem. Now, in hindsight to the events, it is clear his behavior hits all the points in the cycle of abuse. It feels good to finally see it clearly. Not that there is nothing wrong with me, there is the whole underlying trauma from FOO, but as I kept saying, it isn’t all me.

Not coping very well.

Awesome. Keep going.

I'm not doing well today.

What's the motive for learning emotion regulation, and assertiveness, and calmly and politely asking for what you need, if everybody is going to wait until you're about to go boil a bunny before they sit up and take notice?

Last night I thought I heard gunshots but nothing was reported on the news today. I had taken cough syrup before going to bed so I didn't feel too bad when I woke up. I blew a wad of blood out of my nose when I got up which I've been doing ever since I started feeling sick. Not like this though. My throat was hurting so I took a couple tylenol. Then I drank a frozen coffee. Both helped my throat up until a couple hours ago when I needed more cough syrup and now I'm just super tired and worn out. But I'm not coughing, I just have post nasal drip. My throat doesn't hurt either. I see my primary doctor on Tuesday and I have therapy on Monday and I already moved it to remote twice. So I'm trying to avoid that. What I have is not contagious.

Overall I've been doing decently today.

This thread comes from the "Coping with Emotions" forum, right? I somehow forgot that 'how are you coping today?' was about emotions. So my answer today is about my emotions.
I am coping a little bit better emotionally than I have been recently.

I am having a good weekend emotionally for the first time in a very long time!

I hope that you’re start feeling better soon and everything goes well for your therapy and doctor appointment.

Im doing okay although I’ve got some concerns about some things tomorrow, whether they will go to plan. I’m preparing today and hoping for the best.

I am getting better emotionally. My new t listened to what happened in the past and said, “there is no trust”. The gravity of this I am digesting. I just don’t want to talk to him anymore and am holed up in the other room for weeks now. I had a good coda meeting and he pounced immediately following. He asked me if he could join the coda meeting. Good grief. Now that’s really codependent!

I worked 12 hours today so I'm not coping well at all. Twice I've written a resignation letter. Now I'm having really negative thoughts. I thought I would come here for help.

Nothing wrong with being prepared

Coping well and managing my emotions satisfactorily. Staying very wary of things, internal things, which can lead me towards my life's great pitfalls. Counting my blessings, staying positive and spiritual, and looking forward to branching out more this year.

My family is causing me stress by their emotional and physical abuse.

I coped well but once again this nausea kicked my *** this afternoon. I took a zofran, 6 pepto bismol tablets, a pepcid, and 2 extra strength Tylenol and I didn't have much luck so now I just have to sleep it off which normally works.
