Daily Check In — Ups and Downs Thread 7

Nov 16, 2013 at 11:15 PM

I'm not allowed to complain. Even here I can't do it easily. What choices do I have? I've not cried since I was a youngster...that stuff is an outlet isn't it? I'd like to turn the shite into running or heavy exercise but energy isn't a commodity during these times. I understand so g-damn little...people alarm me more than not...I crave to be a part of the whole party but it's just too confusing. Solitary is the result. 10 years out of the loop of living. Consequences? boo-f-ing-hoo. In my soul anyway. I really need to kick a nazi.

Feeling physically sick and mood's not helping at all. :/

Up: forcefed myself. Tried to brainwash myself saying things like "if you dont eat you'll not be able to do school thus failing school."

Down: sui getting worse,

I have my aches and pains, but they are manageable because I'm not depressed. Getting things done every day.

Nov 17, 2013 at 09:44 AM

Up: I'm out of bed, doing laundry and made a grocery list
Down: I still feel useless and purposeless. Hoping getting a full-time job soon will help me get out of this funk.

Ups
Not today
Downs
Suddenly not feeling as important as I did a couple days ago. Not sure what has changed.

people's words have hurt today, and I am weary from the struggle of depression

It's been a bad day. Weekends are bad for me because I can't handle my kids. I don't know what to do.

It's been a bad week, I have had a hard time forcing myself to eat and I've drank way to many days. I don't know how much longer I can do this.

bluedolphyn · Nov 18, 2013 at 04:13 AM

had a wonderful weekend but am now back down. I always feel like my depression is in the past and that I was over exaggerating what it felt like when I feel good and then am disappointed.

Charl S · Nov 18, 2013 at 06:22 AM

Feeling so defeated by problems that keep occurring in my life. It feels like I can never get on top of things and just focus on getting better. I always have to fight against issues beyond my control. It's really getting me down. I feel like the depression is winning again.

Nov 18, 2013 at 08:29 AM

Ups
Still none
Downs
Life in general. I know it'll get better, but today it's just hell on earth.

I'm going to force myself to do something today, maybe even go outside (I didn't at all last week).

dillpickle1983 · Nov 18, 2013 at 09:04 AM

I guess in ok, forced to train an idiot at work, got lots of anxiety. Better than the other day though.

It just isn't working out

IcryWhoAmI · Nov 18, 2013 at 01:34 PM

I'm all over the place. First I'm fine, then I'm miserable, then I'm okay again, then I'm down again. It's really getting to me

Right now I feel so low.

tokiwartooth · Nov 18, 2013 at 02:24 PM

Meh. At least I get to see him this evening.

it_will_get_better · Nov 19, 2013 at 08:23 AM

Feeling okay today.

Positives: Haven't cried in a few days. Not feeling terribly depressed. Seem to have a little bit more energy than last week.

Negatives: Still have very little energy, lack of sleep. Feeling very stressed over work (am late on a couple of things).

Nov 19, 2013 at 08:59 AM

Ups: things are moving somewhat on finding a job
Downs: energy is horrible; am exhausted by 6 p.m. or so and don't even do much all day . . . ?

tokiwartooth · Nov 19, 2013 at 10:40 AM

Well last night was fun, went to a friend's house for another friend's bday party. He was there and it was nice to see him.

Bark · Nov 19, 2013 at 01:02 PM

Spent the day in bed; not feeling well. I'm going to get up and actually eat something. Hit me really suddenly this morning; I was perfectly fine last night. Thank goodness I got an extension on my paper.
