I feel bad. I canceled my appointment for Friday. And I really needed it. But I'm too stressed out and next week I have to take my cat to the vet. That's all I can handle at the moment.

It's been just over a week that I quit vaping. It's still very hard. And things are getting stressful. I need to find better ways to manage stress.

I have learned that my GP is retiring soon. She has been my GP all my life. No one is taking over her practice. I now have to rush to get a new GP to ensure continuity for prescriptions.

Looking for the positives...I got out of bed this morning. I made it into my office. Unfortunately, depression has accompanied me from the time I awoke...I really hate this illness. I wish all of you well in your struggle against this terrible beast.

My depression wasn't so bad today but was still lingering in the background

Those are good days, indeed. Happy for you.

Not much of a day today. Took a three hour bike ride and it wasn't as hot as it was yesterday. The jacuzzi at where I live is up and running now. It was down for three days. I really missed it. It lifted my spirits to have it up again.

It's been a while since anyone has posted on the daily check in. For myself it's been a rough week. I caused a couple of blunders at my place that I didn't mean to do. And I feel very bad about it.

This morning, while eating a nice breakfast, I overheard someone outside of my place harassing and arguing with the manager. It made me sick. Unfortunately there's been a lot of weird, homeless people around who just want to cause trouble. Well, speaking of trouble, it seems like lately it has been finding me. I never go out to cause trouble, it just seems like troubles come to an unsuspecting me. It's like there's some kind of curse or spell cast upon me.

And by the way, it's the second time this week that my breakfast got ruined because of stuff going on outside. It's just difficult to eat when chaos is going on around me.

Very interesting!

I just want to note that I hope I didn't offend anyone on here about the homeless. Because it just occurred to me that some on here said that they were homeless, or they are that now. I didn't mean to say all homeless people cause trouble. So I hope to set the record straight and I apologize to anyone who may have taken this the wrong way.

I did okay today. I had one really bad moment, but I journaled. It helped. And then I got out of the house.

barely had any motivation to do anything today
listened to a story on my alexa though- that was okay, better than the alternative... sat in silence.

I was off and on today. For awhile I was depressed. Then ok. Then I got depressed and tired this afternoon but I took a walk and then drank a couple sodas and ate some Cheetos Mac and cheese. I didn’t realize how much I needed to eat and how much it would help. Now I feel fine because of my Geodon and a Valium that I took an hour ago.

I've been trying to keep myself distracted & to maintain a good attitude. My main problem right now is feeling too tired to stir up some ambition for getting things done.

sick to death of the fact that I hate my food.

seriously: in 7 days, all I've had that I like is a mcdonalds

tired of hunger

just want to eat something that agrees with me too which isn't nuggets

[puzzclar]

I hurt far too much and I know partly due to where I work. Waking up with stiffness stinks. My back feels like someone ran over it.

Hearing that I need another MRI on the same wrist 15 years later has me down. I feel like I can't do anything. I've taken a few more prn meds. Hoping it will help but so far, nope.

Can I make it to Tues where I get back on meds???? I need something to help. And a doc to listen to what's going on and figure out what will work. With as few of side effects as possible.

Due to fatigue, I think I'll stay home. Even if someone else drove I don't feel up to socializing.

Haven't been this down in years. Hoping for a better day, but it's not looking too good at the moment. When depression gets a hold of me, it's relentless. Best to all of you in your personal struggle with this invisible monster.

I've been irritated this morning but it's starting to get better. I did a mindfulness meditation, which helped me to relax. I'm doing some DBT/CBT exercises at the moment. They are helping. Now I just need a distraction.

I'm feeling like a deep depression that I used to have is making a comeback. I've been waking up in the morning not feeling like getting out of bed. I had not felt that way in a while. I don't know if it's just natural or because of circumstantial. Last week was a weird week as troubles seemed to have been set up for me. As of now I feel like I'm recovering from it. Also I have anxiety about a trip coming up and having to make a major decision about possibly moving.

Last night I watched a movie that had a good story but it upset me seeing the suffering and dying of others. I don't know why I end up watching those kind of movies. I shouldn't. I'm a highly-sensitive person (HSP) so it doesn't take much to bring me down.
