How Are You Feeling Right Now?

Tired of being rejected and hurt. My birthday fell on a Saturday two weeks ago. No birthday greetings at work but it is their policy to recognize everyone’s birthday. We had a sports day the following Thursday with hot dogs and all. The administrative assistant saw the reminder for my birthday on the annual calendar the following week and she decided that the hot dog lunch was my birthday celebration. Really? Does she really think I could not see through that? In summary there was no recognition of my birthday. Not even the annual birthday card. And they never asked me if I like hot dogs or can eat them. But today a coworker was recognized with a birthday sheet cake with her name on it too. So they went out of their way to order it and had her name put on it. I am a good person. A good worker. But I am the oldest. Over 60. It is like seniors have no value or feelings or worth.
It's late, but sincere -

Happy Birthday !

Truth. Some things are still "okay" to make fun of (age being one of them but there are others. I just dont want to start any arguing here). It's good that these things are slowing falling away though. You used to be able to really make fun of gay people not all that long ago (and still can in lots of places, I guess) but at least this stuff is now being seen for what it really is.
I have tried it. Can't say it did much. But at the moment I'm trying to clear system of benzos again. I know I can do it, I had 6 weeks off with no issues earlier in the year - multiple stressors ended up on the slippery slope of rescue doses and eventually a small dependence again. I'm meeting with my work mentor today to see if I can identify a strategy to make things as calm as possible until Christmas gives me a chance to rest and reset. Too many demands on me just now.

That's just inexcusable to begin with but even more so with there being a policy supposedly in place.
Happy belated birthday to you.

feeling very low tonight. I’ve written all about it in my diary. Life never seems to give you any let up. It’s relentless.
Hate to hear it, Holding. . . And Gee-whiz? I don't even know where they keep the diaries these days~ / but anyway(s), just know that we are all thinking of you - or at least I know I am! And... just really hoping that things settle down, and can remain calm for a good, long while. Even if that is unrealistic. Or Pie in the~ // STILL- it is & can be, what I am wanting & waiting, wishing & praying for-for You, my good friend! So I guess you guys don't celebrate our Holiday next week? We'll have to find some-thing else for you to look forward to... I mean, maybe you could still make the same meal? No? Even if it doesn't have the same meaning? Do children (really) know, or care - about the 'Tradition?' If not, then I don't truly see what you'd be 'amissing! ;D Peace. mr b

Frustrated and a little frightened.

Woke up gasping, my oxygen was 87 (this is low enough to cause problems)

Now, I am on a bipap AND oxygen, so idk maybe the oxygen concentrator isn't working? or maybe I need more liters?

will call the oxygen company in the morning to get them to come out and check the equipment, if that checks out I guess its back to the effing sleep doctor

I hope they can get things fixed up and for improvements to come to you.

Like I want to end things I was already suffering from food poisoning but I then found out at 3am I have made a massive mistake which added a massive wave of depression and feeling like I should end things took my Sertraline at 5am hoping it would help so far no
i hope that you feel better soon. food poisoning sucks so i can understand why you feel depressed
