Hi. Good morning, good afternoon. I slept a lot last night. I have been sleeping a lot lately. I know that I am lonely. The dating site I am on, makes it worse, and I deactivated my account last night. I know I need to get out and meet people, I don't have a lot of energy for that, and my brain and body don't seem to want me to. I do have social anxiety sometimes. Makes it difficult to get out and meet.

Honestly though, I do think it is a chemical imbalance. I am very sensitive. Things will be oK. and then, just like that, I'll be sad, feel very alone, etc.

I did go swimming yesterday, and felt good about that. I am trying. But kind of sometimes feel like I'm walking through mud. or quicksand.

I have an appt. w/ my nurse tomorrow. and my therapist, the day after.

On days like today, you have to find a reset button -- something that will change the outlook. Try different things until something makes you feel a bit better.

The swimming must have been refreshing. I have a kayak and try to take it out on the lake to change my mood. Of course, I first have to convince myself to go to the trouble of taking it to the lake....which isn't so easy.

I hope your day improves.

Thank you Yzen and BasicGoodness, my day did improve. I met my mother on her lunch break, and we went shopping. It was nice to be with her, and listen to the radio in the car. Got a few shirts from the thrift store out of the deal too. It was a pretty nice day out, which also helped. I did overspend at the bookstore, I am working on it. Have a good evening.
