So far so good.I am going to see the diabetic nurse today.I had to cancel my therapy session as I don't have the cab fare to get there and back.I can go see a film later.I am not liking that it is still early am and dark.I will feel better when the sun comes up and it is light out.I am enjoying my morning coffee.

I am coping today by just doing things that I’m supposed to do and getting them done. Exposure therapy.

All of the positive energy I felt yesterday is gone. I'm feeling depressed and stressed this morning. It's like a roller coaster of emotions. Sigh : /

By figuring out another solution to the issue. It was a 30 minute wait for the flu shot at one pharmacy so we went to a different one. Sonics ice cream machine wasn’t working, so I went to Wendy’s instead. The DVR once again got messed up, so I just switched to another season again. I had to keep doing this all day, but it was fine.

Fine right now, but I have a feeling it might get a bit stressful later when I have to do things. Can't do any of them yet, I think I've done all I can for now.

Last session with my therapist today since I am moving. Should I even bother telling her how I am feeling? Overall feeling much better than I did when I first woke up. Packing this morning and overthinking things as usual. Getting a stress headache from it all. But I've still got energy to continue packing after my break.

Hello. I was just wondering where you get the cbt worksheets? I'm interested in them and would like to know how and if they help you? I need to do something. my main problem is isolating not because I want to but because i'm stuck without a vehicle and I don't go many places. So any literature or worksheets that I can get a hold of would be most appreciated. Thank You,

Kristen

The main way I cope in life is just staying positive. It works very well.
Hi there. I too try to stay positive. I've started using a mood tracker for all my daily events and moods and I journal a lot. I have many issues, number one being Bipolar but I am also very isolated with nobody to talk to about my mental health problems. I used to go to a Psychiatrist but her and I had a falling out you might say and haven't been back in over 2 years now. What I miss is the group therapy we used to have at the clinic I would attend. Now I am home all day every day by myself with my self help books and coping skills that sometimes work and most of the time don't. So as of this past week, I haven't been coping well at all. And to make matters worse, my husband whom I don't live with but see every day is in a catatonic state and depression which is making mine worse or maybe I should day helpless. Any encouragement or words of wisdom would be most appreciated. Thank You.

Doing the best I can. My brother yelled at me for waking him up to ask him something, and that was really upsetting to me. I tried to keep my cool but I was not perfect either. It's hard with someone who has issues (he won't get help) and that we've known each other for so long. We know each others buttons.

Anyway, I left the house to get some breathing room. It helped. I hope it helped him too.

Also I have therapy today. YAY!!

Apart from some jealousy about the obsession object, today has been fine, haven't had much to do though.

I am not coping within myself.

everything is wrong with the world, everything is blah, everything needs fixing.

I did my shopping though yesterday. I massively overspent (which is probably not healthy), but have what I need for the week ahead (plus a few more luxuries I decided to pick up that wern't on my list)

I love retail therapy, I just wish it cured depression and sadness

by the way, I didn't have enough money to get everything I wanted.

had to rush home to get more, then rush back

bit embarrassing

Not very well because I was kept awake all night and have been tired all day. I had quite a lot of housework to do and struggled to fit it all in. And I just didn't have the energy, which made it worse. I've done everything now so I feel a bit better.
