So the interview is over, they were very nice....I kind of blew a few of the questions though. I’m not sure they’ll hire me or not but they said I’d hear from them one way or another. I think honestly one of the more damaging questions was beyond my control they asked if in a few years whether I’d want to work part time or full and I said full but her face changed so I think they were hoping I could fill one of their part time positions down the road. But there were other basic questions like in your research on the library what stood out to you. Even do you have any questions for us. I had to pause and then foot in mouth occurred. Basically I wasn’t prepared because I was trying not to be nervous that I didn’t prep too much last night.

But on the plus side it’s done and I’m better prepared if I for the next interview and you never know.

I'm glad it is over SP. Interviews are hard. You did good. You could only answer honestly about what you would like down the road. At least they will tell you one way or the other. You did a good job today and I think you should be proud of yourself. Maybe today you should get yourself a little treat for doing something hard! Proud of you!

Had pdoc. He said some mumbo jumbo about D2 receptors in my prefrontal thingy not working or whatever. Gonna up the Abilifry. If that doesn't work, back to Adderall, I guess. Hope something helps, so I can start working again...

I hope upping the Abilify helps you @bpcyclist. Have you ever tried Vyvanse? I'm on that instead of Adderall. I like Vyvanse, but it is hard to sleep with it and if I recall correctly sometimes you have trouble sleeping? I usually have to take a sleep med. But I do like how I feel with the Vyvanse. Very like focused.

Texted a friend today to just chat with her and see what was up. Was telling her about hallucinations that I've been having lately. She said, "I don't think you know how much I admire your persistence in dealing with them." I thought this would be good for all of us to hear! Good job everybody! Every day, one foot in front of the other, we deal with our stuff. Hallucinations, delusions, depressions, mania, anxiety etc. But we do it. We are a strong bunch!

Had a super bad migraine. Took some ibuprofen and ate a bowl of fruity pebbles and it went away

Sorry about the migraine. That sucks. I'm glad it went away. Must have been the fruity pebbles!

My blanket is done! Aside from weaving in all the ends.

Now I get to lay down watch a movie and enjoy it. It’s so warm and comfy.

Yeah, never had that Vyvanse. I heard it was kinda expensive, so, might have to just be Adderall, which is cheap. Glad it is working for you, that is really nice.
