Yeah I understand that. Yes we need to treat our livers kindly. I might have a drink once a year?? And it’s usually just a small glass of a dark red dry wine or a fruity slushy with an umbrella. Lol __________________ Helping others gets me out of my own head ~ |

Oh yes now I remember altho Invega worked well mood wise but did cause a big weight gain. I swear it seems all meds do that.. grrrr ! Have you ever tried Latuda?? Maybe that’s an option when you get insurance. It’s pushed as something working on depression not so much hypo/mania part. I’m glad you were able to get up and face another day , even tho you struggle , but’s it’s a win ! Maybe you need to stress to RS that you weren’t doing it to stress him out but to help explain your struggle. I had told my husband about those thoughts years ago, it really messed with his head, I didn’t realize just how much so I stopped telling him.. if I did get truly unsafe I would wind up needing to go IP. Just make sure he’s up to hearing it and it not cause him mental harm and feeling helpless. Judy keep going day to day __________________ Helping others gets me out of my own head ~ |

I still can't get through to the IRS for the paperwork I need for section 8. This is rediculous. The housing commission just says I should be able to so keep trying. Its the same thing every time. I have 2 options. I choose the one that relates to me and it says "sorry... Blah blah blah" and hangs up on me. Doing it online gets me stuck in the sign-up process. It just says "your info is wrong" and that's it. I can't advance.

I hate it when there is no option for real live people on those auto phone machines.

Doing ok I think.
My daughter has just broken up with her bf. She cheated on him whilst drunk. I don’t know how to handle or respond to this situation. She seems to not get that cheating is not ok. I don’t get it - we’ve raised her to behave better. Hopefully I can stay stable dealing with my daughter’s issues. I always feel like I’m responsible whenever my children do the wrong thing. After 4 sessions with my new T I’ve decided to ‘divorce’ her. So far I’ve spent part of each session in the bathroom a nervous wreck. T’s big on doing historic ‘archeological digs’ which I’m really uncomfortable with. My childhood is my childhood and I can’t change it. She told me in the 4th session that my anxiety stems from my early childhood which I spent sick and in hospitals. Given that I actually told her that same thing in the first 5min in the first session it’s frustrating. In 4 sessions she has given me no new tools to manage my anxiety or any strategies to prevent triggering anxiety. If anything, I’m more anxious. Thus the ‘divorce’. I’ll give self therapy a go. “Physician heal thyself” and all that. I’ve decided to take myself through a book “change your thinking” by Sarah Edelman. It’s a book with lots of CBT strategies. Maybe if I can reframe some things I’ll be less anxious. Hope everyone is having a good day.

My pdoc told me to titrate up on lamictal over the course of two weeks to 200mg. She is also starting me on 150mg of Wellbutrin. So hopefully I will start feeling better soon.
I feel a little better now that there is a plan in place. I see her again in two weeks. __________________ Of course it is happening inside your head.

I’m sorry about your daughters life choices... some people need to lose someone important to finally understand loyalty. Hope she can figure it out. No ! This is not any fault on your raising her. I saw a T once, I gave it 5 sessions and ended, he was useless, actually offered me any advice , it’s odd he’s being the conversation towards his own struggle with depression .. ummm okay. I think using available work books on your our own can be very beneficial. Good for you being proactive __________________ Helping others gets me out of my own head ~ |
