Sounds awesome

I cleaned this morning. Last night my friend called me from the airport to tell me he and his wife arrived safely. After cleaning this morning I spoke to him. It sounded like the trip was a bit of a disaster. He didn't get off the ship that much and his hearing aids malfunctioned. It was cold where they were. And now, at being back, he told me that his wife came down with COVID.

Other than that, not much going on for me. My depression has been feeling a little bit better lately.

I think I might know what you mean. That's a very difficult state of mind to be in. I would bet a lot that you are underestimating yourself. You show yourself here to be a caring person. Whatever might be going on, I think you're trying. You just do what you're up to doing for now. I hope you feel better soon.

I'm doing fairly ok. I was sick for a few days, but am feeling better.

Today is almost half way over. I kept myself busy this morning with some light stuff to do. Nothing much else to report about. My friend just informed me that he's not feeling well, either. Yesterday he told me that his wife came down with COVID and now he might have it. He says not feeling well and has some kind of unusual cough that he never had before. He is 87 and his wife is 91, so this is scary. I wish they didn't take that trip. I knew it was a bad idea, and I told him, but he insisted on going anyways. Too bad!

I'm down in the dumps... just completely disheartened.

I’ve been better. I’m exhausted and just generally drained.

Thank you for some great advice

I feel anxious and very sad.

A so-so kind of day. I was busy this morning. As of now there's still a lot of today to go but I think nothing much is going to happen for the rest of the day. My friend called and said he has COVID now. He sounded fine on the phone. I hope he and his wife get over it soon.

I was very depressed and bitter for most of the day. Someone ghosted me for no good reason. It hurt. But I've been reading from Tony Robin's book and I'm starting to feel better. I just made a gratitude list.

[Rose76]

I'm thousands of miles from home visiting family. This evening was a fiasco.

I just want to go home. I'm so sorry I came here at all. No need to get all depressed. I'll go to bed. Maybe tomorrow I'll sulk for awhile. Eventually, the day of my return flight will arrive. I just have to be here till then.

[Deilla]

I'm feeling pretty sad now. Someone else ghosted me. Someone whom I thought was a friend. We didn't talk much lately but that's no reason to ghost someone. I feel awful. She's not much of a person if she did that for no reason at all.

I had allowed myself to become upset :sadhug with how I allowed my brother to cause me to feel :hug about myself

[Rose76]

I went on this trip to visit family and strengthen my bond with them. Sure didn't work out that way. I feel so rejected. Worst of all, I feel I deserve the rejection. In a way I feel numb. In another way, I feel so bad that I wish I were never born.

In a way I want to reach out and try to heal the rift that just opened up. In another way, I want to surrender to the desire to just give up.

Right now I need more sleep.

Today was a bad day and so was yesterday with some weirdness. I'm feeling discouraged and depressed. I don't think things will ever get better. It's been a long time that things haven't been great but some days are worse than others.

As for Rose, it's so much of how it is with my family. I haven't seen them in a long time and I'm in no hurry to get together. But I do reach out at times; and then it feels like I got eggs in my face for my effort.

I'm having weird physical symptoms - no saliva in my mouth, slightly slurred speech, lightheadedness, slight dizzziness. It's hard for me to tap these letters. I don't have good control of my hands and fingers.

Maybe I accidentally took 2 Vicodin, instead of 1.
