Doing meh. Pain causing issues.

[hiddenaway]

Every time I hear that Drew isn’t handling Bob Barker’s death well, my anxiety kicks in and I’m left terrified that he’s going to decide to leave the show.

Common sense tells me he most likely won’t because the show is his safe place and really helps with his own mental health issues, but I also can’t help the way I feel because he’s my safe place for similar reasons.

I really, really wish I could talk to him about this.

I amn feeling a bit low this afternoon.

I just read about the death of jimmy buffet one of my favourite country singers

it's not the death that affects me though, it's that while he was alive, he did so much and had a really good life. people are going to remember him because he was awesome and did loads with his life.

Possible trigger:

I feel like I've done nothing with mine and that when I pass, I won't be remembered for anything

just sat on a chair somewhere barking at people, like the old grandma from hell or something

not the way I want to be remembered, but it really feels too late now to do anything about it.

I feel exactly the same way. Especially lately in my life I feel like I'm accomplishing nothing. Just recently there was a man who passed away from the small town I originally came from. I didn't know him personally but I had known his name. The obit would say things like he taught at various schools, had all kinds of leadership positions, and traveled around the world. He had lots of friends and family. None of that is true in my life. And there had been many other obits I read that was the same thing.

I love my new glasses, but the adjustment period isn’t fun. Thankfully it won’t last forever.

Did the cleaning this morning. It was a gloomy morning as there was heavy drizzle outside. It's clear and sunny in the afternoon now. My sister called me. She talks a lot about people in nursing homes. Not only she mentions who's in but she goes into trivial details about them. I don't know any of those people so it doesn't interest me. Maybe she's ready for the nursing home.

It's feels like it's going to be a long three-day weekend. I don't like them now since I've been retired. I used to love the three day weekends when I was working. Nothing much will be going on for the whole weekend.

I've been in a good frame of mind for at least a week. It's been great. Last evening I could feel myself getting apathetic, which tends to lead to a downward slide. I'm fighting it. I'm keeping my place neat and clean. I've been making good meals. So I think I'm going to stay ok, at least for a while longer.

Go Rose!!!

depressing sunday

that is all..

[Buffy01]

I been feeling really awful because of how bad my family treated me

[hiddenaway]

Me: I’m genderless.
My body: Not this week, you aren’t.

Ugh.

[Violetta75]

I was down a bit today... I have an encouraging landlord. Nicest one yet. I'm just missing years ago when family would get together, even if we didn't get along we pretended to. It seems some problems aren't fixed when you think you've finally got an answer. It's all being said to me, I just have to do these things to fix it.

[Stillhuman]

could be better is all I can say

Not much going on today. Yesterday my friend and I had an argument. Neither one of us said that we should part because if it, but I haven't heard from him today. It's nothing new, we've had those kind of arguments before.

I called my sister this morning and we had a pretty good talk. So that's about it. I tend to not like Mondays when it's a holiday. I used to like those Mondays when I was working.

On Saturday and Sunday evenings, I watched a movie each night. They were well-known successful movies that were older. For some reason I didn't like both of them.

[hiddenaway]

I went from, ‘Drew Carey? Who’d want to watch that guy?’ to deeply in love with him so fast it’s kind of ridiculous.

Like, by the end of his second show, it was all over and now it’s been over fifteen years. Of course, I wasn’t as open as I am now about it, but still.

[AzulOscuro]

@will19, thank you for this thread.
I feel pretty active today. Maybe it’s because it’s not so so hot anymore. After 4 months of torrid heat in that city, now I can get out of home any time along the day.

I always found my depression worsen depending on the weather. I don’t know if it also happen to you, folks.

Have a good day, everyone!!!!!!

[hiddenaway]

Overthinking is getting to me again. Ugh.

Do you practice meditation in these occasions? It’s very helpful.

[Buffy01]

I’m still feeling awful . I’m working on depression

[AzulOscuro]

I hear you. It’s very hard. I know it. Hope tomorrow you feel a little better.

[hiddenaway]

Almost over the glasses adjustment period now. A few more days should do it, I think.

[Violetta75]

I'm not depressed. For right now. That's good enough for me. I look forward to sleep again tonight and I think I will sleep well. Hugs to all, I try to keep up with reading up on you fellow people who struggle with depression, it's a beast.

[AzulOscuro]

Planning to talk to my shrink about reducing my meds. A little scared to do it but I’ve been on these meds for years now also side effects worries me, especially the lack of libido. My goal is to rid of them completely but I have to go step by step.

[hiddenaway]

Not quite awake yet. Feels like there’s not enough coffee to get through the day.

[Rose76]

I'm still doing quite well, I'm happy to say.
