I have been absent from the board for awhile now and from what Benblesed has told me what went on i'm glad I was away and missed all those triggering posts.

I've been dealing with a bit of stress lately, mostly because my anxiety is up and I have to at least send out 2 resumes this week for jobs, and I don't want too. But I know I can't avoid it and I need to do it to build of my confidence because right now I have none when it comes to jobs.

My SAD is going to start kicking in, maybe it has now but I think the vitamins...

So I gotta start my lightbox (light therapy) this week and sit under it for 5 minutes each day to start, because I was ultra sensitive to it last year.

I've had some triggers a couple weeks ago , some depression as well, but things are looking up. I haven't gone downhill in terms of my SAD which is surprising because this is the time where it hits me the worse.

I think for me the biggest thing is to deal with getting my confidence up, getting that up will conquer my anxiety as well.

I had a massive panic attack not too long ago with contacting someone about a job. Was panicky for 3 hours crying, wringing my hands, freaking out. But I did call that day and left her a message, but she didn't call me back and I didn't do another follow up i guess it's because I wasn't that sure about it.

It's going to be a rough couple of weeks I think.
Also I've been still dealing with food anxiety regarding meat ect.

That is getting better... also I got to drink more fluids. Have to drink something ever 2 hrs, but i'm forgetting that already.

I've been stressed out lately in regards to finding work again ect. I got to start my lightbox and should set it up tonight so I can get under it tomorrow morning.

Me and my BF had a rough time last night, we were both in bad moods and I cried alot, got depressed.

He upset me and scared me last night, but I think we figured stuff out.

Just under alot of stress at the moment and it sucks... What's been going on lately...

<font color="red"> Well the weather is getting colder, i'm going to miss doing my lighbox all week because I didn't bring it to my bf's place.

Had some stress and annoyance yesturday to do with jobs ect, and I had to get another job application because my BF misplaced it.

I want to get a job but I know this one place is hiring many many positions and now is the time to send it or fax it out, but i am hesitant because i know i'll get a call back for an interview.

I didn't even fax out my one resume/application that I was supposed to last week. What's been going on lately... Well I think as long as I do it before I have my appt on the 27th. What's been going on lately...This sucks.

The sun is out today so i'm happy about that it's just getting cold.

Hmm nothing really to report though. I didn't get started on my "homework" that my psychiarist wanted me to do. Writting down postive stuff to build self confidence in terms of jobs and interview, I don't know what to write.

Also I had to keep track of my food/drink but I didn't bother my patterns haven't changed. also suppose to be keeping track of fluids (since I don't get enough daily) every 2 hours got to drink something, well that didn't last long.

What's been going on lately... </font>
