How Are You Feeling Right Now?

[Bergerac]

I've just had to throw three bottles of wine down the sink, to avoid being verbally abused all day. What a waste of money. So bloody angry.

Grateful that a member here, is helping me so much, with tips for my friend. xxx

I feel sad about something.

Also worried about money issues and doctors.

 

[Chipetele]

Annoyed with myself for getting up too late on the first warm, sunny day in a long time, and the last one for a while, it looks like.
Feeling nostalgic, sad and confused about it already being the 7th anniversary of the death of someone I knew, and of me starting uni.

Thanks Mr. B

I'm down to 2 meds (from as many as 5 or 6), an anti-depressant, and the mood stabilizer. I've researched the anti-depressant (buspirone), and it can have side effects such as increased irritability and emotions that can't be controlled. I think the mood stabilizer helped mitigate those, and decreasing it got things out of balance. My thought is that decreasing the anti-depressant now may bring things back into balance, if that makes sense. I see my doc again this week, so will see what she thinks.
I've been taking MI meds for 14 years, and it's been tricky. I have at times made adjustments (unsanctioned) or quit taking them. altogether. The results of such a time caused me to come back to this site after being away for several years.

Things were actually really good a couple of years ago, and I'm trying to get back to that state. I want to get back to that dosage to see if that helps. Getting there doesn't seem to be easy.

peace

Yes, & so it is as I'd felt, or believed it may happen to be then. With respect to: your experience in the medication-dept. Not something that is new, nor something that is not well-versed, then. I'm glad you know so much. And can relate your experiences relative to one-another. And then are able to step back, or away from; & evaluate it, the situation--you & yourself: fairly. And very exactly, or precisely. As opposed to, coming from a more biased perception or perspective. I think I'm in agreement with your assessment, or decision on, letting her know about, & cuing her in (& cluing her in on) the situation. And briefing or bringing her up to speed, as best you can. In the moment. So that she can make the best possible decision based on all of the evidence as she sees fit. I think those are some pretty powerful meds that you are/were on. And that's what, or how I'd best try & describe it to your friend. However, what her feelings, thoughts beliefs & opinions (or judgements passed) on - or of, the matter. Remain unknown, or undetermined... & in her (corner) or end! Unfortunately. We can present our story. . . And our case. But that is about it, at the end of the day. Years ago (many). I'd thought, "Well, heck?!" If I just EXPLAIN it, better / or best!~*\> _.Then they will surely all buy what it is I'm saying^ (or at least understand both it, & my predicament). Circumstance, that I am swimming in. In short; NO. It was No-thing, like that-> Not, at all! : ) Any way? Good luck, 1lefty.

Sorry, &... hope it gets better! Hang in there~

I can't sleep. I'm having one of those nights where I'm thinking intently about the world going on without me & me being kind of okay with that.

I'm getting sleepy now. Hopefully I can get some shut-eye.

My brain and body are in a constant fight between exhaustion and anxiety 😢

First day back at work after my vacation and no work. I scoured the programs that I could work for and there is no work. So I emailed the boss and he hasn't replied. I have 1 year and a couple of days until I have to sign up for medicare so I don't want to get laid off but the boredom is ominous. Oh well, the cat is happy I am bothering her naptime with treats.

Disappointed

Sorry about that. Do you want to talk about it?

Nightmare! But cat will indeed be pleased with the extra attention

The weird place, partly into a huge task and doubts slamming around in my head.

Sleep anxiety is starting to set in. Am tired but don't want to go to bed and lie awake all night.

Up in the air.

I’m not sure. 🤔

I have felt a range of emotions today and think maybe I’m too exhausted to know right now. I’m relaxed now, but so, so, so tired from working so much. It feels like I need a ton of sleep.

 

[Livelife]

thanks much snails....it's just about extreme lack of professionalism, carelessness especially when being asked by companies for lots of money.
Even though that should be irrelevant regardless of expense.

Oh that is annoying and disappointing. Sorry thst happened to you. Customer service can be great in little pockets only it seems these days. But those times I do get good customer service it can brighten my whole day! Maybe more when I wasn't feeling this bad but still it helps.

Same! Mixed bag. Felt steadier earlier, not calmer for sure but somehow steadier. Intrusive thoughts have crept in to a frightening degree, trying every tool in the box though.
