Roll Call 125

I'm doing good at using coping mechanisms for depression. Moving helped a lot because there was nothing to do where I used to live. Anhedonia caused my depression but I'm fighting it.

I see beautiful things in life.. A bit of anxiety but I ignore it. There's really no reason to see a psychiatrist apart from updating my prescriptions. I hope my new therapist is good.

My stomach hurts sooooooo bad

I haven’t had any psychotic thoughts for a while now. It’s kind of weird.

People are conspiring against me. thats ok I'm smarter than they think I am.

I ate hot cheetos and drank 2 beers.

It feels like my liver is in pain. I could be wrong tho

I don't even get psychotic thoughts at the end of my injection anymore. It's really nice. Just keep taking your meds.

Now I think I'll be fine if I stop the antipsychotic though. I feel weird to be taking some barely researched FDA approved chemical with no long term research.

Is there an fda in canada?

No I think it's just basically copied from the USA more than any other country idk.

I'm sure antipsychotics are fine for psychosis but if there's a chance that I wont get psychosis anymore with no evidence then I feel stuck.

I googled "Is schizophrenia forever don't lie" (lol..)

First thing it said was "There is no cure".

Hahahahhahahahahha

Why are u so funny

We have a division called Health Canada and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency which sort of act the same way as the FDA.

Did you click "I'm feeling lucky". Lol.

So I have some extreme allergic reaction since my lips went numb yesterday. My bottom lip swelled up to over twice it's natural size, and I developed the worst itching I've ever had. I don't know what caused it. They're giving me Benadryl which only barely helps and Prednisone.

If I were at home I'd take a Benadryl every four hours but here they make me wait 6 hours between doses..

The damn wifi isn't working today and I'm almost out of data. I hope it will work again soon. Everytime I try to turn it on it gets stuck at "obtaining (something or other)".

I hope everyone who's going through downturns today will feel a lot better really soon.

had fun with t and peeps

Liiieeeesss. Search until you find that one positive result that’s the real one.

People tell me I need to invest in myself

Edit: nah i shouldn't post that here I'll keep it to myself just in case

What does that even mean? lol

That's like saying they're better than you.

I think they mean I should look into education and my mental health and other self investments.

I'm trying to do that too but it takes time.. I just rush into things and then burn out but right now it's stable. Balance is key.

Yes. I got life to juggle. I don't have the money to get an education and fail because I bit off too much than I can handle.

She got up about an hour ago and went back to bed a few minutes ago.

Hi all. Hope everyone's okay.
I've been reading but having a sort of poverty of speech or something.
*hugs*

I’m sorry, newtus, I can’t help but wonder how big the closets are in your house lol.

re: money for education

these days it's really not beneficial anymore to take out massive student loans and attend a 4 year university

community colleges have trade and tech programs of Max 2 years

as far as finances... if you fill out a FAFSA form online (and if you qualify which most people do) you can receive multiple Pell grants (not loans... you don't pay anything back) that will cover your tuition... class fees... books and school supplies... and you even get a fat check for "living expenses" after everything's paid for at school

trade and tech degrees (IMO) are better options in today's society. there's high demand for some of them and they can be lucrative

community colleges also work with disabled folks in order to achieve success. they want you to succeed.

most community colleges offer classes online as well... which is what I did... to eliminate distractions within the classroom such as social anxiety

Morning

I feel kinda bad.

I had nightmares all night. Stuff like someone going a different direction on the highway almost hitting me. And someone breaking into my house.

And the bf was with me....

How odd

Im havinf coffee
