Roll Call 129

Angelique67 · Aug 04, 2018 at 11:07 PM

I wasn't expecting that. I can't sleep yet. Wondering if I could sneak half a tiz. I don't think so but maybe if I turn the light off. Still I'm paranoid a nurse will come in and ask why I'm up.

Dancinglady, I don't have any ill will towards you, but maybe you should avoid this thread? There's too much fighting.

Did this actually happen, or was it more like a dream?

Sorry I was just daydreaming.. Lol

How would I feel - I would feel sad but would go to my DBT book and see what I could learn and do things a little different. When I talk here sometimes my T words get written and I don't know they are not good. I am not a T. I will work on not quoting them so much.

It stems from my frustration of having to take Concerta and Invega when I don't want to.

I can see where you're coming from dancinglady. Sometimes you got to be careful with your words to avoid sounding judgemental.

Angelique67 · Aug 04, 2018 at 11:21 PM

Oh God there was a spider on my wall. I went to get someone to kill it but all she did was hit it with a towel but it's still alive! Oh my God.

I have learned many great pieces of advice from this group and love reading the successes not stalking. Angelique is doing better under bad and trying circumstances. Newtus is succeeding almost every day. Junk DNA has had successes. I love it we all with a MI can get better and lead a productive life and all of you are showing that every week.

First, your therapist only hear one side of the story, which is from you. Second, most of us here have been in therapy and have the skills, so you’re not the only one who knows about DBT or EMDR or anything. The point is, mental illness itself already tiring enough, and sometimes we just need a hug, not all logic about this and that. You said you saw some success stories here, well then this is how we do it, by giving support and listening.

I have avoided this thread and will I just read they wanted non-psychotic members so thought I would take a chance but if you don't want me here I will honor your request and not talk again.

It's the same thing. You can chose not to feel shame and adjust to living the way that you have to because of the illness and not be able to do things. But what fun is that? Then acceptance comes into place..

We can live normal lives but really everyone lives different lives. I shouldn't trip with this illness so I should do other things.. Much spirituality, therapy..

Stuff I never want to hear just hits me sometimes like some type of magical thinking like hearing messages in music. If the messages aren't persecutory delusions, I love hearing messages in music. But sometimes it can be too much. A good dose of everything in balance is good. Staying up late for one night when you feel like it - not every night, eating fast food, etc.

You can be unstable. To stabilize yourself is the most important and general stabilization of your whole self with a medication can't be ignored.

Desoxyn · Aug 04, 2018 at 11:26 PM

Soz I thought you meant shame for not being able to do things on the medication.. I think..

I just killed one this morning, but it was a tiny one. Is it still crawling?

Erti · Aug 04, 2018 at 11:30 PM

Made a new roll call

12AM · Aug 04, 2018 at 11:30 PM

I’ve been up for almost 24 hours again. Going to take another dose of Olanzapine. Fiancé is snoring on phone but I don’t want to hang up so that I won’t feel alone.

It's on the floor somewhere now, unless it's already in my shoe or something. They can come right in via the AC unit.

I like to play with those baby red spiders. They're so cute

You might like the news story about a Chinese mom and son both got sick after eating raw centipedes. If only they'd cooked them.

You do know everything you eat has some bug parts in them?

"By Food and Drug Administration (FDA) standards, frozen broccoli can have 60 insects per 100 grams (about 1/2 cup)"

It goes for every food.

That's the FDA for you!
