Feel OK today. My GP ordered more medication to lower my blood sugar. I have already started. I feel better and the measurement (glucose device) shows that so I should feel. (It is so easy to think that one's depression has become worse when it in reality is too high blood glucose that is the cause of enormous tiredness).

I should be happy today, so many good things have happened. Instead I'm numb at best and want to cry at worst.

In looking at my thoughts, my problem is I envy and loathe basically everyone. And there's no way to get on their level: I'm neurotypical as they come, my IQ and personality are set, my past is done and unchangeable. I'm just stuck here and the best I can hope for is subsistence. But I can't stop, just can't stop thinking that I'm inherently, despicably inferior and worthless. Sometimes there are stretches where it's all I think about.

Spent most of my day in bed, feeling like I had a fever (but it's just withdrawal I think). I kept thinking my bed was some kind of vehicle and I had Go West's "Call Me" playing in my head over and over. Not a terrible song, but it gets annoying after the 30th time.

But it is wrong. It does not matter how much you feel you are ugly. This does not change the fact that you are not ugly.
But I am very sorry because you feel so badly. I feel you deserve better. You are a beautiful human being

Thank you, but you've never seen my face or body. I am most certainly ugly, by anyone's standards. Inner beauty doesn't count in my situation (long story).

Once you posted your picture. That is why I said that. But anyway, beauty criteria vary from an individual to another individual and from a culture to another culture. I think I understand your feelings. I felt the same when I was younger. I am sorry if I was not more supportive. I do not want to dismiss your feelings.

You ARE one of the kind ones Clara. Just as people need to accept that they are beautiful, you also need to accept that you are kind

i've had a headache all day and they know this but they're drunk and have been playing their crap music all evening, to the point i have to put my earbuds in and listen to my own music, because if i have to listen to music against my will at least it should be music that i like. anyway, it's 8:30 and i'm ready for it to stop. plus i've been pmsing for a week now and just finally got the first blood today, so now i have at least 6 days to go until i'm free of this icky feeling. sometimes i skip periods, and i was hoping this would be one of those months i'd have a few cramps and a bit of spotting and that'd be it. nope. nope nope nopenopenope

My brother is back from his long excursion (he went to a tourist city to do some seasonal jobs) and his sole presence depresses me. He is a bully and I am not sure why. Probably there is a combination of drug use and mental health conditions. I really hope we will be able to sell the house we live in and split by the end of the year. I cried the first 3 days after he came back to live upstairs, as usual. And I got kidney infection. Now, I am a bit better. I am doing some meaningful volunteer work and I think this is helping me to cope

Hi Girl, just wondering, how is the medical stuff coming along? I noticed a while back you said you had some kind of appt. I hope that happens soon, you need help and you need to get out of there. Thinking of you and hoping for the best!

I'm doing okay, I know it won't last. I want to get off my pills for depression and anxiety, but it's for the best. My eyesight has gotten very bad and my heart can't take some of these meds. Blood sugar is too hard to control lately.

Hello. I'm checking in. Things got away from me. I've alienated the people who could be friends. I have to move to a new apartment. It's not easy to what needs to be done alone. I feel very old today, and very inadequate.

Today was a busy day with lots to do, but not much going on socially. I was hoping that some people would call me but they didn't. I had left voice mails with them.

Yesterday I was feeling pretty bad. Felt like I had a lot of self-pity. I was doing fairly well with my finances and then some unexpected bills came from a couple of doctor visits I had. So the pretty good amount of money I saved up is about to be gone.

Also I have been feeling like I have to really put myself out for other people. And when I do, I don't get much back in return. I don't expect anything, it's just that I practically don't get anything back, or they expect me to do more. It seems like no one is putting themselves out for me. And then I'm feeling like I'm getting older and there's nothing in the future to look forward to. But there seems to be some things coming up that I am dreading. There are times when I get bad feelings when I first wake up in the morning.

So. The first half of yesterday was sublime - I actually enjoyed a social gathering followed by 2-3 hours of 1-on-1 socializing with someone I met who found me "interesting". This was the first time in my entire life that I've actually felt engaged and calm in social interaction - normally, half an hour with someone would leave me exhausted and eager to leave. Yesterday, I actually enjoyed it. I think I said too much about myself, but I can make up for it. We exchanged information and the guy emailed me saying he thinks we're kindred spirits.

The second half of yesterday, I went right back into my old emotional ways. A video gave me a minor existential crisis, a few articles revived my anger and anxiety attached to food. I almost cried; I woke up sad. I intend to just kind of keep pushing through, keep being productive. But god I feel awful.
