will keep that in mind. I do think it hit faster though (but I normally only take 5mg orally).

Hi everybody. Waiting on my new antidepressant. I saw the pdoc on 4.19.23 and he was going to have his practice manager send in the prior authorization. Well it's been a couple of weeks so I checked with my insurance company but they said they never got it. Then I checked with my pdoc's office and for some reason they thought my health insurance was changing so they were waiting on me to tell them who the new one was. But it isn't changing. So the practice manager was going to send it in today even though she doesn't usually work on Tuesdays. Then the insurance company says it takes seven business days. So maybe I will have it late next week. I also had to call the pdoc office because my pharmacy said they didn't have some of my prescriptions. Not like the pills but the prescription from the doctor. I don't know what happened because they got some of them. So the practice manager was going to ask the doctor to resend the ones that apparently did not go through. Hopefully I will have all my medications soon.

Saw my doctor today.
I’ll admit I’ve been day drinking again. I know it’s not good. I just feel empty inside and I can’t help myself. Doctor upped my escitalopram a bit. See how that goes. He suggests I try to get out more and get more hobbies. I rejoined the gym yesterday. I’m going to get into the habit of going again. Just need to make sure my lock works and find my shoes and gym clothes. I’m going on Friday at least but I might try to go tomorrow morning or Thursday after work. We’ll see. Just trying to get into good habits. Hopefully I can turn things around. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Volunteering went well today. There’s a giant grey and white tomcat named simba there. He’s been there the past two weeks. He’s 2-3 years old. He’s so sweet and friendly. Looks like there’s a patch shaved off his side. I wonder if he had surgery or something. All the cats were so sweet today. One had to have eye drops so I gave him his eye drops. There was one named rascal and he is super playful.
I am going to that career workshop tomorrow. Because I need help with getting a job. I haven’t been successful so far so maybe that will help. They help you make a resume, find job openings, prepare for interviews etc Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Anyway, going grocery shopping tomorrow morning finally.
Just did a load of laundry, waiting for it to be done in the dryer. Have really bad acid reflux from pasta I just ate. I might need to get back on my acid reflux med. Either that or just avoid stuff like that Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I just got back from testing out my new running shoes. So much better than my shredded up old pair. I hope they last.
I'm so tired right now. Didn't sleep well last night, been up since 2:30am and kept waking up throughout the sleep.

I didn’t go to the gym this morning but I’m going to make sure my lock still works (if I can remember the combo) and then go to the gym after my chiro appointment this evening! Gym will probably be busy but I’ll get back to it.

Went grocery shopping today. Got everything I needed except siracha and honey. Will have to take another trip there some other time to find out. It’s for a recipe. Basically you take boneless skinless chicken breast cutlets and coat them in seasonings with plain fat free yogurt and then coat them in Panko bread crumbs. Then you cook them in the oven and serve them with a mixture of siracha and honey drizzled over them. I made it once before and it was amazing

I posted this in the bipolar subforum but I'll post it here as well to hear your all's opinions:
Does anyone ever feel like their brain is especially slow moving when coming out/coming down from a manic episode? I feel like I have nothing to say half the time the past few days, like I can't think or my brain isn't moving fast enough since restarting my meds. I worry that I'm boring my boyfriend because I haven't been super talkative like I was when manic (among other things, impulsive, hypersexual, reckless etc) I'm just worried that my regular self is too boring.

I went to the gym today. Didn’t go too hard but I feel I’m going to have sore legs tomorrow. But if I feel good I’ll go after work tomorrow!
I was going to go to the gym also on Friday but I won tickets from work for a big concert Friday night! My job is a big company and they have their name on the event center so they have a fancy suite and stuff they use for advisors and employees. I’m not super into the band, but I know some of their stuff. And it’s all free! Taking my sister with me. I guess I might be able to go to the gym Friday morning before work but I want to ease myself back into going in the mornings. Gotta get used to getting up real early. Also going to go on Saturday. And hopefully Sunday. Just get back into a good routine of the gym. I’m excited. Oh so pride parade is next month I’m going to that with my sister as well. And I’m going to buy some tickets to a local soccer/football game for next month. Not huge into the sport but it’s a fun time and it’s something to do. I’m trying to fill my time with events and like the gym and stuff. Rather than just sitting at home watching TV all day. Taking my doctor’s advice. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

My mom for example is a nut (No offense to other nuts). She has bad ADHD (But also narcissism/Histrionic PD). Most times I have to get away from her.
I'm pretty normal, but I take very dangerous things to make stuff more interesting - Cuz of sui thoughts. I should learn to balance, and many people eventually grow older and realize what's really meaningful in life, have to keep making mistakes until they learn the lesson (What ever that may be). My mom still acts like a 20 year old though. So does my dad a bit. Always partying etc (When I was a kid - No problem with that though). But I get excited about technology, and interesting things.. The pain I've felt for such a long time, something good I want, to happen - Feeling.. I used to seek hedonia. And.. I don't crave the strongest high - Just a little is okay.. I thought about opening the car door and jumping out - Took diazepam, was fine again. Things can get SO dark "The most logical solution" I thought to myself. That's the problem of the world. Picture this, I know it's hard But I used to bе happy some years ago I can feel a storm I can feel it coming on I can feel my heart Beating like a Tommy gun I can't keep my calm Maybe I should end it all Someone oughta stop Beating on my heart Like a bass drum |

I began catastrophizing when I logged into my university's portal and I no longer was a registered user. Then I remembered there's a different system where the grades are, etc.
I've always had this doubt/delusion that I'm not actually a student there, that no one there actually cares about me, etc. I guess I have to realize that I'm writing my thesis right now. And that has taken some time but whatever. I guess I have to cut myself some slack.

Also feeling pretty down after a student gave me some feedback about my classes. I will try to be as objective as possible. Because that helps me put things in perspective. The student said the class might be improved by helping her with more hands-on things. The student said the class doesn't necessarily have to have components such as PowerPoints, etc. I felt personally attacked at first, but I was able to put it in perspective.

On a positive note, at least I have a job. That is something I am grateful for, for sure.

I just got back from hiking. On and off rain so I did another waterfall hike. It's a good thing I didn't do this one Monday when we were in a flood warning because even today the water crossings were difficult and parts of the trail were like a river. I really lived up to my username today
Hope everyone's having a good day

I always ALWAYS find it hard to talk about nearly anything small-talk wise with people. Like I cannot talk movies, TV series, or sports with anyone without sounding like a complete stranger to those things because the reality is that I don't know how to talk about those things because I don't watch said things. I feel like my approach is more of that of a psychotherapist, which can feel very weird for people. Like asking why the players in sports do what they do. But whatever. I have to laugh it off. I have to remember I have a degree in philosophy. Ha.
