I’m steering clear of antagonistic people. Sending light and love to everyone also coping with emotions!

not the best.. painful legs, no sleep, and very depressed..

glad it is the weekend though because honestly it feels like the only time I can relax without someone (or something) ruining my day.

Just staying in reading (struggling to concentrate though). I was supposed to go to an event but I said I'll go tomorrow (as it's 3 day anyway) because I don't feel like being somewhere loud and busy. Sometimes I think I make myself worse staying in but whatever.
Thanks for this!

I’ve been freaking out a little over a couple of things but I think they’ve felt worse because my sleep hasn’t been good. Hopefully rest will help.

I woke up feeling a bit depressed but I'm feeling a little bit better now. A few hours ago though I felt horrible and cried.

It's been tough grieving over my brother and dealing with PTSD all at once. It can be exhausting sometimes for me.

I think this is how it goes:

early week: depression
mid week: anxiety
late week/early weekend: relief

Feeling down today so coping a bit by staying at home.

It's very hot which is disappointing as I thought summer was over and I don't feel good when it's too warm. As my husband and I are both chronically ill we're both at home together a lot which is sometimes nice but can also cause tensions. Small things can get blown up out of proportion in a too small bubble of existence.

I'm feeling down like I wish this life would end but don't panic, I feel like that a lot! I have tools to cope with bad days: rest, prayer, meditation, gratitude. I'll get through it fine, I just wish there was a little more joy and a bit less suffering?

My day started well but went downhill so I'm coping with ice cream and chocolate. This isn't ideal.

I ate a little breakfast, but I think I am going to continue this awesome day with just some surfing of the internet. And maybe continue doing this for days on end. Breakfast and internet, breakfast, coffee, internet, chilling, TV on as well, maybe some music. This is going to be something that I won't regret.

Bad migraine. I've had so much sick time, I'm afraid I'm going to lose my job. Or have to resign it.

Migraines are the worst. Are you getting medication for them? I’m on a preventative medication and it’s made a huge difference.

Had to take several doses to get relief. A preventive medication, I've never heard of. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll ask my doctor about it.

I'm doing okay today in the sense that I'm up, showered, dressed and ready for the home inspection which is part of a process of renovation work. I'm really angry with my partner though, various mundane reasons and some (most) of it is just anxiety about the home inspection.
I feel guilty that it's mainly my anxiety causing the problem but on the other hand he didn't really help much to clean up and he could support me instead of just stonewalling the issue and being extra obnoxious.

Honestly, sick of this life but we all have our crosses to bear etc etc.

This was yesterday, not today, but during downtime at work I looked through my dot journal and it was helpful to reconnect to what is interesting and important to me rather than being distracted by what others deem interesting and important.
Thanks for this!
