Ugh. My guy isn’t answering his phone. It’s going to be a very long day.

Good afternoon/evening everyone. How are things going today?

Happy 4th!


I'm doing okay. Realised I have too much reliance on sugar...I cut it out for 3-4 days and I seriously have felt terrible in terms of craving sugar and tiredness. Got some today and I feel mostly normal again.


Otherwise I am better than last night for now. Hopefully it stays that way.


What's everyone up to?

I have night time and day time sudafed but idk if it works. I take Advil to break my fever so it looks like someone poured a bucket of water over me.

But had a shower took a Concerta and will see new therapist in an hour.

My therapist sounds like a good therapist from first impression. Just wasn't really sure what to say. Maybe I don't need to say anything.

Concerta is helping with my flu

Had a good psych meeting. Just went over how things were. The psych is going to suggest either put me back up to 60mg of Latuda or add something else to 40mg Latuda. She was suggesting low dose of seroquel.

I asked her about a diagnosis and she said it’s not really specific but she would put me on the bipolar spectrum and the schizophrenia spectrum. Not that I have schizophrenia just somewhere along there. She wouldn’t quite classify me as schizoaffective.

But yeah it went well. I see my regular doctor next week.

They are just noisemakers. They just make noise. No sparks or anything dangerous.

You throw them on the ground and they pop

I lost my job today. I must say though, my union rep was really nice and she definitely fought my corner. To be honest I think my manager's boss wanted to get rid of me regardless of what was said in the meeting today. My union rep asked me if I wanted to appeal their decision and if I did she would be more than happy to help. She also gave me her personal mobile phone number, which I thought was nice. I'm not sure what to do now because they dismissed me on medical grounds. I guess if I go for an interview at a different place that maybe should keep quiet about my schizophrenia?

I do keep quiet about mine. if it comes up somehow (some jobs want to know if I'm on disability) I tell them I have ptsd. I've found that saying just that is sufficient enough and more acceptable (as Fd up that is!)

if no one asks I don't say anything

Oh and she said that she even sees that I’m better than when she met me in October. So that’s good. I mean obviously I’m not great but better. I do feel better than I did.

And she also told me to take my meds regularly lol.

Unsure that sucks, mate. I hope you're able to find another job quickly. Maybe you'll find something you enjoy more.
