How Are You Feeling Right Now?

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.

I would say it’s strange to feel this way, but it happens often. I’m still in the process of finding the right dosages of my meds. I hope things get better for you soon 🫶

You too
Same with the meds. Hoping for a change next week because this isn't working
I am finding the doctors don't appreciate just how long a week or two weeks feel. My other appointments are a bit of a lifeline even though we don't generally talk about my mh. Hopeful for some progress next week
If I don't have hope sure as hell no one else will hold that for me

This morning I felt hurt and betrayed. Over events that I feel I should be over now. I did what I could, and I learned what not to do next time if it comes up again, which is a very low probability event, anyway.

By now, hurt has given way to anger, and it’s a lot of story lines about how dare they treat me that way. Problem is that since I feel like I’m being unnecessarily resentful, I’m so irritable that just every little thing that is the slightest bit unsatisfactory is a huge problem, and why can’t people get their own individual shit together before they fucking tell me what I am doing wrong.

Normally this would be a non issue, but now it’s scary because I don’t want to be one of those people who takes their frustrations out on just whoever is nearby at the time. That’s a moral principle for me. And I’m finding all sorts of reasons to be pissed at everyone in my way. I think I am grumpy because I’m not getting enough sleep. I hate feeling this way, though. Luckily I am home for the day, and I’m going to bed asap.

Maybe I'm overthinking some things. I dunno. It's very strange when there's heightened emotion, and then information which indicates some the emotionalal content coming from a person isn't entirely real, but a kind of purpose driven play acting. They do feel it, but they're feeling it on purpose. That's when real life ain't so real sometimes.
 
Relieved

I thought that my angry outburst at someone had destroyed our friendship (formerly potential romance), but after a week of silence, she called, let me apologize, and then we had a nice long conversation.. I got to explain that I believe a decrease in my mood stabilizer had caused my anger, and she was supportive.
That source of anxiety seems to be resolved.

peace

Just read an article about a NASA spacecraft possibly not being safe enough to bring two astronauts home. I was like yikes...imagine being stuck in space and your life depends on the decision of someone else at NASA to either bring you home in a potentially unsafe spacecraft that could potentially blow up when it reaches Earth's atmosphere OR send another, "safer spacecraft", which would take more time and money, while they sit and wait for it to show up with their lives on the line.

That’s the stuff nightmares are made of 😂

I cannot image how terrifying that would be. My anxiety is tingling just thinking about it!
 
Just hanging out waiting for the work day to be over. Slept until 7:30am because of it (I usually start work at 7am). 2 1/2 hours of work then nothing. I have to stay tied to the laptop so I can't go anywhere or do anything in case something comes up . But it is good I am home instead of a desk trying to look busy. Done that - pure torture.
