Isn't it interesting when you get too much sleep you are tired? That's how I am too. I need about 9 hours of sleep and then I'm good. If I get too much sleep I'm just tired the next day.

I'm feeling pretty good today. It's the first day of Lent and I committed to what I'm going to do. I'm in a pretty good mood. I've been using Noom (a weight loss app) for 4 days and I lost a little weight already so that feels fantastic. I can't tell. Only the scale tells me. But my mind is happy with the results. No hallucinations in a while. The Latuda mixed with the Rexulti is really helpful. I'm so pleased. I know Pdoc will be pleased too. I'm looking forward to lunch even though it will be sparse. And then it's halfway through the week!

I am doing much better recently. I'm kind of looking forward to what's ahead because of some nice surprises, goals that I finally accomplished, which I had been putting off, & they turned out really good.

I've been journaling about my depression tonight. I think it is helping. I'm ready to relax and have a nice evening. I may go meditate for a while. But then again, I think I want iced coffee and my game for a while.

I kicked up some old trauma with music, so I used play doh, journaling and neutral music to cope. I took my meds and I am going to bed.

I'm a little stressed. Maybe a little sad too. I will try to relax for a while and then go to bed. It's getting late.

I'm doing well. Exercising regularly has been a huge plus for me. It ensures my day goes smoother. I still have anxiety as a baseline, but it's not really bad right now. I'm going to check in and say I'm confident I'm ok.

I'm doing alright, I guess. I feel a little sad, but I'm coping by playing games. I want to stay busy today. So I think I will do some extra housework. I like cooking too. Perhaps I will make something fun.

Sometimes I wish I were just schizophrenic because the "affective" part is destroying me right now.

Now that I say that, I know it's probably not a good thing to wish for. But I am hoping for more positive times ahead.

I did pretty good most of the day today. At the moment I am dealing with a difficult challenge, so I'm trying to focus on the belief that it's temporary & things will be better again in a while.

I feel very sad and lonely today. I have too much on my plate. But my mom said she will help me tomorrow. It will be good company too. I haven't seen anyone since November.

I haven’t been here since October. Been struggling emotionally since the weekend. Was triggered by something on Saturday and the anger made way to sadness. Was able to identify it and find ways to cope. More upbeat this afternoon.

I'm very down. My mom never showed up. I waited and waited. I'm never asking for help again.

Was a bit paranoid yesterday. Feeling better (so far) today. Hope everyone is doing well.

I'm so sorry, Deilla, even your stepmom! I'll be crossing my fingers for you, & visualizing help coming your way.

I feel angry. I tried to forgive my mom and just try to have a normal relationship with her. I asked her how everyone was doing. All she said to me was, "ok". Nothing about anything. She didn't even ask how I was. She does that a lot to me. Last year I shared some good news with her. I told her I published a book. I worked hard on that and I was proud of it. You know what she said? She said, "ok". Not congratulations or I'm proud of you. Or what kind of book? Nothing. I hate her!
