I am definitely dealing with some challenges, & there are moments when it feels like way too much to handle. I cry & plead to my brain for assistance. Then other moments give me a break for a while & I find myself in a good mood, even enjoying those moments. Ups & downs, like this thread's title.

I seem to have moved on by being ghosted by 2 therapists at one time. I don’t know. Maybe that last one really did take it personally. I ate kinda healthy today. At least food wise. I had a lot of vegetables. So maybe that’s why I wasn’t completely up the wall. Also my favorite show started a new season.

I have a doctor's appointment today. I'm nervous about getting ready. It's taking me some time. I can only do a little bit at a time. Now I have to find my new socks. They're in one of the new packages that arrived this week.

I haven't posted on here in a while. Lately I've been busy. Mostly in getting health insurance. There were all kinds of documents I had to get and then the people who are to give it to me were not reachable. So I had to make a lot of phone calls which was a real hassle. It seems like, since I retired, it's been a bumpy ride. I didn't think retirement could be so hard! Maybe it isn't for a lot of people, but it has been for me so far. The things that have happened to me were never mentioned on the articles I've read about the down side of retiring.

Just now I got a phone call from the Ear, Nose, and Throat about my skin procedure. The office would be far away. So I left it to have an appointment at an office closer to where I live.

feeling a little depressed that I didn't get my baby doll today. honestly I was looking forward to it. why can't stuff arive when it's meant to..... ugg.

I have spent an entire week (or maybe a little more) excited for the doll, and it's not here

I also showered today, and apart from it being painful as ****, all I did is sat in my room eating.

so was their a real point

I'm not really sure how I'm doing. I'm a little sad for a while and then I'm okay. Maybe if I get involved in a project, I'll feel better.

Sometimes I'm wondering why I'm allowing myself to feel so sad & fearful while hoping for a better time. Maybe I'm doing ok after all. And maybe this is just a challenging time to help me learn?

I just finished breakfast and all I have to do today is clean. I've already done the laundry and shopping yesterday. One nice thing about being retired is that I don't have the cleaning, laundry, and shopping to do all on Saturdays anymore.

It's been a very bumpy ride in the last couple of days. It all had to do with getting health insurance, and trying to get it before the 1st. I got into one low-cost insurance program but ended up being rejected because I didn't qualify. And another one, as of now, is pending. I've had to get all kinds of documents for that one and it's been a real hassle. But late yesterday I decided to go with a more costly policy that's easy to get. I'm not happy about paying more but I think it's worth it. There's no guarantee that I will qualify for the one that's pending now and it probably will not be a good policy.

Nothing much after I do the cleaning and lunch. I think, from now on, I should be more on "cruise control" than having some chaos to do like in the past couple of weeks. At least I hope it will be that way.

You seem to be very conscientious & orderly. I hope you find what you need. You're not a trouble maker, & you just keep on, curve ball after curve ball. Many of us from around the world respect & admire you.

Thanks so much and I've appreciated the way you have been very encouraging to me. As far as curve balls go, it's more like mean fastballs.

I guess I don't know enough about baseball. So fast balls are worse than curved ones? Anyway, games can be won, can't they? Let's say yes!!

My depression has been mild today. I haven’t really thought much about therapy today and it was on my mind a lot this past week. I think taking my meds at the appropriate time this morning helped.

I deserve better treatment. If someone says we're going to still be friends, then they should act like it. I guess I'm angry now. I was sad.

I feel the same way to. I can’t sleep unless I take something to help me sleep.

Worked out after work and that's about it.

2 out of 3 days of the heat wave down, but the worst one yet is forecast for tomorrow. 110+ degrees! And in an area where only the wealthy install AC in the house.

I felt so content all day . . . content doing nothing. Just on the couch, in front of the TV. This is a new kind of depression for me. It's so comfortable. I know it's not healthy to keep doing nothing. But it feels great.
