Im doing all this stuff for my depression. Im pretty desperate to feel better.

Going to groups, light therapy, vitamin d3, starting to eat better, trying to stay busy/getting out.

I hope all this stuff helps.

It's a weird thing for me and sleep...on average I sleep anywhere from 10-14 hours. Before APs I would require about 8-10. I think I likely have Delayed Sleep Phase Disorder. I've been a night owl as long as I can remember. A few times I managed to do 6am-10pm patterns back in college at Ohio State, but it was cause I had to. I was tired all the time cause it wasn't my natural pattern.

I'm pretty sure lack of sunlight is a problem here. I need to start using the sun lamp. We have about 8 hours of sunlight a day right now....it will be around 13 hours a day by end of March, and then 16 by end of April. So the winter's end is coming.

Oh yeah for sure pull out the sun lamp and make your own daylight......

Cue an existential crisis: I realize I'm less than a year and a half from turning 30 years old.

Now my stomach feels kind of sick. I hope the malady I had last weekend isn't coming back.

My robe is back from the laundry, thank God. Now I can shower in the morning. Not sure if I should nap... I feel so crummy now when I felt so content at my vape break. I'm so tired suddenly. And the lack of sunlight is kind of disturbing when a little while ago it didn't bother me at all.

My friend is being wooed by a new woman in his life. He says there's not a chance he'll fall in love with her. I hope that will stay true.

I hope you feel better.

Try 43. Once I hit 40 the rest kind of just flowed.

newtus · Feb 07, 2018, 03:27 PM

Hahaha! Try 60! JDNA, I didn't know you were so old. I thought you were 28.

ofthevalley · Feb 07, 2018, 03:37 PM

It’s funny how stressed I was at turning 40. 30 didn’t bother me too much but 40 was tough. Now I ignore the numbers and focus on the lines in my face lol.

newtus · Feb 07, 2018, 03:38 PM

I cant seem to take a nap

ofthevalley · Feb 07, 2018, 03:41 PM

I couldn’t sleep today either.

ofthevalley · Feb 07, 2018, 03:42 PM

I’m making chicken rice soup for dinner. My stomach is feeling off and I think some soup will help.

newtus · Feb 07, 2018, 03:44 PM

Aside from the D3 im taking for depression, i started taking Biotin for my hair. My hair thinning really bad in the front. Im not sure if its a thyroid issue or stress/bad diet. I don’t remember it being this thin a month or two ago. But my mom has Hashimotos.

junkDNA · Feb 07, 2018, 03:44 PM

I'm baking a butternut squash

newtus · Feb 07, 2018, 03:48 PM

Something weird happened yesterday. I was dealing with that migraine for a day and a half or two. I took a Benadryl and it went away!

@sometimespsychotic any studies on this?

My hair used to fall out like crazy. I used Nioxin and it helped a lot. Now my hair is fine.
You should get your thyroid checked though since there is a family history.
