An apple a day keeps the doctor away.

An apple will keep anyone away if you throw it hard enough.

Finally got prescribed my Abilify. Now I just wait for the Vraylar to get out of my system and then I can start the Abilify. Hopefully, my mood will get better after that.

Hey gaiiii’s

Desoxyn · Jan 28, 2021 at 07:24 PM

I've been meditating a little. It was the only option in this nonsense.

I started by listening to this Alan Watts one (I first listened to it was last year while really focused on an extra stim);

Alan Watts - Guided Meditation (Awakening The Mind) - YouTube

It can be really powerful for me when I'm really paying attention to it.

How to Meditate: The Exact Meditation That Cured My ADHD and Changed My Life - YouTube <-- This one is for ADHD.. I found another video that mentioned neuroplasticity with meditation.. So I'm right about how it can work.. Just practicing focus to strengthen the brain muscles.. I like the idea of mindfulness and focusing on your hands, arms etc.. It takes me out of my head - To know that you're not your mind, body, thoughts etc.. I might buy candles like this guy to focus on.

This video can benefit anyone ---> Master Shi Heng Yi – 5 hindrances to self-mastery | Shi Heng YI | TEDxVitosha - YouTube - Just watching the video of this guy feels like meditation.. Like when he speaks, there's no "Um/Uh" fillers.. He talks about clear mindedness (There is one lol so that show's he's human).

Now that I've finished all of this, my moms friend walked into the house and she's screaming (Coke induced severe ADHD - She has a good heart though we love her) and making a mess everywhere..

So yeah.. I need to focus on myself? Cuz the world is nutz..

I can’t wait to go grocery shopping next week. I have a lot of good ideas on my list of foods to get.

Oh and I'm buying some reusable produce bags. Better for the environment then using those plastic ones in the store every time for every different produce you want to get that you just end up throwing away when you get home. And they're easier to open.

I’m keeping a mood journal... hope it helps and see how much my mood fluctuates

Blue_Bird · Jan 28, 2021 at 09:32 PM

I'm dissociating/panicking a bit. The only thing I can think of is that I had coffee today, and I had coffee the other day when I had a panic attack. So I should probably stop.

Coffee's a tough one for me. I can't quit it ever because it affects my mood positively and helps me wake up in the morning. But it probably causes a bit of anxiety too. I actually don't know if it causes that much anxiety for me. Maybe.

WastingAsparagus · Jan 28, 2021 at 09:42 PM

Also, I bought this kind of cool program that locks me out of my computer until I write a certain number of words or write for a certain amount of time or whatever. It's pretty cool.

Yeah, I always say I'm gonna stop but I never do. I love the energy it gives me. It outweighs the anxiety in my opinion. For the most part at least. And I don't want to stop. But it's like sometimes it gives me zero anxiety and sometimes I get really bad anxiety/panic, there's no telling what it's gonna be on any given day.

That's really neat. I like productivity stuff like that. Like there's some programs that can keep you offline or off certain sites for certain amounts of time if you're trying to focus on something else.

[just wanted to show it for an hour!]

Took the pic down now but I’m pregnant!

Erti · Jan 28, 2021 at 10:11 PM

Newtus - congratulations

WastingAsparagus · Jan 28, 2021 at 11:11 PM

Wow, I hope I sleep tonight. Last night no sleep really.

Desoxyn · Jan 28, 2021 at 11:49 PM

Congrats Newtus!

Blue_Bird · Jan 29, 2021 at 12:07 AM

Meaningless news trigger below;

Possible trigger:

I stopped meditating hours ago and have been deep in the realms of the internet news. The reddit thing was on the news as well (Ty Newtus). I was telling my mom about it all day yesterday and said it would be.

Now I'm telling my dad because wallstreetbets are going towards crypto now - Little do/eventually they will know that it is good for them and humanity but they'll have to be educated (As if I am a coder or anything - I barely know about it either) by experts (Because the masses are idiots and need to be directed lol) on which altcoins are good but Ethereum will still become more valuable. The bad thing is that social media will hype this up big time and the government will use it as an excuse to try and put as many restrictions on crypto as they can.

I talked to my dad and he said that silver is going to double. My mom said that gold will too maybe.

If you google "Silver price", articles about reddit pop up. My dad said that understanding it is crazy (Cuz he's a boomer) so I'm explaining it to him.

Dogecoin, Elon Musk, etc..

I just wanted some peace today but this thing is getting my attention yet again - Which isn't a bad thing. I'm able to keep up to is because of the Invega Trinza injection and definitely because of the olanzepine (Otherwise I'd be having panic attacks). My meds are good.

To the moon...
