I did…we saw top gun at the movies and then grilled out.

I had a pretty bad day today. Just think my parents want to see me on certain meds and that conflicts with what the pdoc wants me on. I.e., the pdoc wants me on more modafinil since I'm taking a higher dose of olanzapine. My parents think I should be on less olanzapine. Anyway... It's super frustrating.

Just wish communication were more linear. But then I'd be out of a job...

There was a shooting on my street last night

That’s why I never go out at night

That is super scary. I hear gunshots around me occasionally. Definitely scares me.

has anyone ever been so hungry that they start feeling nauseous and like they're gonna actually throw up? I just felt that way tonight, I thought I ate enough throughout the day but apparently not. I have cut wayyy back on what I eat due to trying to lose weight but I never used to get like this when I cut back on what I ate, but ever since meds I start feeling physically sick if I don't eat enough throughout the day. It's happened before, like I wasn't eating enough at one point and ended up throwing up (not intentionally) and shaking. I don't know why that happens because I feel like I'm getting enough food

It feels like the meds are trying to ruin my attempts to eat healthy

Yeah, it is scary. There are a lot of shootings here. Now there's fireworks going off right outside my window and it's scaring my cats :/

Yes, happens all the time to me when I don't eat enough during the day. I wish meals were automatic. Ha. If only...

I'm gonna have my psychiatrist refer me to a nutritionist again, because clearly I'm doing something wrong. I was referred to one a very long time ago, several years ago, but never really went after the first appointment

I'm anxious today. I took anxiety medication. I have a pdoc appointment at 12:30 PM. I am going to ask him if I can discontinue an A/P. (I'm on 3 and that just seems ridiculous!) I don't know what he will say. I am kind of nervous about it. But I hope he lets me try without it.

One of my colleagues Microsoft Team Video called me. He was like, what's wrong? I was like, nothing. He was like, no there's something wrong. I was like no, I'm just doing payroll and my desk is covered in paperwork. I'm fine. He was like, are you feeling okay? I was like yes. I felt like I was getting the third degree. He was like, would you tell me if something was wrong? I said yes. I don't know for sure that I would. He isn't my boss anymore, he is just a colleague but I feel comfortable enough with him. But I didn't like being grilled this morning.

I'm feeling good and focused today =]

No signs of paranoia or any other strange mental symptoms. I think the Wellbutrin caused me to become so dark and negative. It was a black 3 months - I don't remember what happened. I wasn't even doing anything.

I'm recovering now.. Just trying to enjoy life more..

I'm feeling extremely anxious too SK, I hope you feel better. I might end up taking a klonopin soon. I've been on the verge of panic all day. I keep thinking I'm being poisoned

HUGS Blue_Bird. Maybe a klonopin would be a good idea. Just to take the edge off. You don't take them very often.

I feel quite a bit better since taking one and watching an episode of Pokémon. I think I'm gonna let myself sleep in tomorrow. I've been making myself get up at 5am every day for the past 2 weeks and am probably not getting enough sleep

Having two pieces of Texas toast for dinner (the frozen kind). I like quick easy stuff that's easy to make and easy to eat on days I'm feeling anxious. Eating stresses me out more when I'm already stressed or anxious so I try to make it simple
