Today I was up, but others brought me down. Tomorrow, I'll try not to let them...

Oh boy,,,,woke up feeling very angry and feeling the need to lash out. I hope I don't undo all the progress I've made these past few months. Gotta get a grip.

I am so far behind at work. I am not going to get anything done today because I will be out of the office in pointless meetings. It is really stressing me out. GRRRR

Woke up very sad about my marriage falling apart. I'm going to keep trying though, I'm really trying to look past my hurts and be good to him maybe he'll be good to me too.

I feel GREAT. If I can just make this LAST. When I feel good, I feel fantastic.

What I thought was going to be a very challenging day turned out to be a very productive one. And best of all I find I do have an allie with my GP. He spent 45 minutes out of his day helping me get everything done that needed to be straightened out and even made some phone calls to the ones that have been pingponging me around for the last 3 weeks. Bottom line, I am so relieved and feeling very grateful that I got the help I needed.

I am totally enjoying my current break from being depressed. Trying to develop good habits that might make me more stable.

I don't like being jealous of other people. I never use to be...but now if I hear one more person talk about how great their boyfriend is I just want to punch them in the face. I wouldn't really do that. I really am happy for them. I just cannot hear it right now.

What if everything turns out terrible? What if I am just being stupid? Is this even worth it? Am I just setting myself up for disaster? Will I be miserable for the rest of my life? Is there an emoticon for feeling defeated by life?

I've given up on the notion of ever finding peace of mind or happiness.

ocd is so depressing.

Creating boundaries is very hard - I feel like I'm being mean-spirited but I really just don't want to get involved in everyone else's dramas. It's hard when people are knocking on your door all the time when I just want to be left alone!

I have been disappointed that my new employer has not yet given me an assignment. I have been hired by an agency, and they are not obligated to give me any minimum amount of work. In talking with them today, it seems they will have more for me to do startinging in January. I'm a bit worried about getting by, in the meantime. I probably should apply with other potential employers.

I'm grateful that this is causing me any serious depression right now.

I'mNotReal · Nov 21, 2011, 05:14 PM

No one likes me. I'm disgusting.

The thread of negativity and self-pity.

Hmmph...

I'm still managing to avoid serious depression. I've felt quite well for a few weeks now. Getting something constructive done everyday helps a lot, especially something that requires getting out of the house.

I have to be careful about involvement with a family member who can be very trying to deal with. I hate to be aloof toward someone I do care about, but I can't be a fool either and that is what happens too easily.

porcupine2 · Nov 23, 2011, 07:08 AM

My neighbors won't leave me alone - I just want my privacy back! No matter how many times they come to my door to ask for something I tell them NO, yet they still keep coming back. HOw rude would it be if I put a Do Not Disturb sign on my door?
I've lived here over a year before they moved in across the driveway.

Now there are claims of going faster than the speed of light.

Reminds me of Josh Gibson quote: "Cool Papa Bell was so fast he could get out of bed, turn out the lights across the room and be back in bed under the covers before the lights went out."

Nemo39122 · Nov 23, 2011, 02:30 PM

It seems like saying things like I don't care, nothing matters anymore, or that nothing will ever get better is just a huge depression stereotype. But I don't know what else to say...

di meliora · Nov 23, 2011, 06:25 PM

"I do care." "Many things matter." "With perseverance and proper guidance, change is possible."

That's funny
