I just didn't want to wake up today. I'm drained by life. But I need to keep pushing forward..

Hugs Desoxyn. It sounds like you have a plan. Can you come clean my room when you're done?

I see. I think this has a chance to be popular. I bet there are many people who love doing ikebana but is taken aback by how expensive it is.

Why does staring at the wall feel good? I don't know, I just want to look at the wall and not think about anything and it feels good. - Quora

"I don't know what to tell u because I'm not a,psychiatrist. But, this obsession with a wall doesn't seem healthy. You can't do this for the rest of your life. Talk to your family doctor and they'll set u up with a psychiatrist"

Lol what..

My care manager texted me today. I was wondering why I hadn’t heard back from her for over a week but she said she just got back to work and was out because she had Covid. Glad she’s okay.

Yeah! Do you have to get one every time or did your pdoc write you one for permanent? My pdoc just wrote me a permanent one, just last month.

I still need to get one every time, in this state it must be a total and permanent disability to get out forever which I don’t really have.

Oh I see.


I was expecting a one-time one because sometimes my hallucinations aren't that bad and I could probably serve on the jury. But he wrote me a permanent one so as long as I don't move from this county I won't have to get another excuse written. They sent me a card in the mail and if I get another summons I just make a copy of the card and send it in. Sounds easy enough.

I didn't want to go to aftercare last night (like usual) but (like usual) I was glad that I went. It was on vulnerability and there was a Ted talk by Brene Brown. Love her! There was a discussion and a mediation and it was good.

I'm feeling depressed though. I think it is a full blown depression. At first I thought my mood was just low but now I think it is a depressive episode. Shucks.


I am already on two anti-depressants and three anti-psychotics and one anti-anxiety medication. I am on the highest doses of the anti-depressants so I don't think that my pdoc can do anything except take me off and try something else which I am not really keen on doing and I don't see him until 3-2-22.


I talk to my T on Monday but I gotta get through the weekend first. Maybe some painting would help.

I think the painting will help, if just a little bit.

I feel exhausted today….it was just stressful going to see the doc in person for my jury note, I get so worked up with anxiety and then someone rear ended us. Everyone in both cars was ok and there is no visible damage but the bumper is a little loose.

I am too, though my doctor mentions it every time I see her. I'm like I'm trying to do the diet and exercise thing but it isn't helping!

These APs are impossible to deal with with metabolism. I used to fight it and I was still overweight so I gave up but I guess it’s worse now. I’m not even sure what I can eat with this now. I need to see a primary care. I think I’m going to trash my candy because if it’s here I’ll eat it. Do you have any resources on the diet and exercise thing?
