You’re tempting me now. I have been good so far, but actually, I am regretful. I missed out on some bargains and I still need stuff. Sounds like you’ve done the right thing. Enjoy your purchases.
 
I had a friend for a while when in the midst of my addiction. She lived close to me and drove my husband and I to the methadone clinic every day because we all went to the same one. Sometimes she'd come over or vice versa. Sometimes we'd even go out together. We set her up with one of my husband's friends and they got together. But then they started using together, and my husband and I did the same. Not much of a surprise, I suppose. We were all addicts, after all. But now that we haven't spoken in years, I honestly can't say I miss it much. A lot of the things I used to do with her, I did to try to please her (i.e., going to NA meetings--I didn't like those much...), whereas now I do whatever I want. Perhaps, I never really got a hang of this whole "friend" thing, with addiction in the way, and all. Perhaps there's more to it. I just don't really miss having friends as much as I once thought...idk.
I guess whether or not friends are part of the equation isn’t all black and white, but deep down life as it is isn’t enough. I’m weary of settling for less and hoping for more.

Had a horrible episode earlier. Massive anxiety, nausea, feelings of dread. Went to bed but couldn't settle, got up and took blood pressure and it was 146/88 not seen it that high since the benzo withdrawals. I have been very stressed and took a propranolol yesterday. Reading between the lines I think I got some kind of rebound off it. Blood pressure came back to normal with some calm breathing and now back in bed hoping I don't wake up with a wet face looking up at stars 😱

Works during the day, doodles at night.
Actually, Im really glad I took care of my skin and did some massages after car accident, but actually taking care of skin really helps in a way so I dont get cold sores and inflammation around my mouth before my period 😅

Taking care of skin helps rejuvenate overall health tbh, good blood flow and no mood swings. Now just using tiger balm heat patches helping with cramps and coffee affer brunch. Morning was just filled with painkillers, yuck. As always, low hormone will make it even more painful so when cramps are less, I will walk more to get it flowing. 😸

Girl talk, sorry boys.

Also, my other friend is right hmmn... coffee indeed help with period cravings...?
 
I generally don't feel anything anymore. Some depression here and there, everyone once in a while I'm fun or enjoying what I'm doing, but it's just for that particular short time and it's back to nothing. Sucks because I've got to get motivated to lose some weight just to help with the back and knee pain but all I feel is bleh!

I am just driven insane, I cannot handle my mother's reality TV. From the moment she wakes up till the moment she falls asleep she walks around with it playing full volume on her phone. When I study I keep switching between the fan and the heater right next to me to drown out the noise. So of course that is making me sick and slow. And as she says she could not care less that anyone else is annoyed. Also, I say at night when she goes to sleep it is off, but that is not true either, she will fall asleep and then I have to wait for her boyfriend to eventually get angry and turn it off, which is usually about 2 am sometimes even later. But it is back on between 5 am and 6 am every morning. It is a small house and honestly, I feel like this is becoming my Batman villain origins story. I cannot take it anymore

What type of villian would you be? Like in the Batman universe, we got the Scarecrow using hallucinogens, the Joker just plain pyscho and not a care in the world, Penguin who is a wanna-be mobster, Cat Woman who is quite the thief....what kind fo you turn into?

Can you play some kind of white noise track through headphones/earbuds? This is the only thing that has worked for me with unwanted external noises. My brain just tunes out the background sound and it starts to feel like normal. Use it most of the time lately.

Relieved. Went to bed at 10.30pm last night feeling like I was going to collapse. Had a blood pressure spike but it went away. Managed to get some sleep and woke up to my ceiling intact above me. Didn't hear any winds in the night but have had my white noise playing - I get anxious when I hear gusts so probably best to drown them out, along with the infernal bird next door. Am just going to try to rest this weekend and then try to survive one day at a time down to the holidays. If I have to cancel stuff due to exhaustion, so be it.
