How are you coping today? #2 1/2

Deilla · Jan 31, 2020 at 05:39 AM

I'm having a hard time coping this morning. I have a lot of things going on today. I've tried playing games but I'm too stressed to relax.

Coped well- got lots of sleep last night and did better.

Have eaten well, done some housework, chores, study and a walk - oh and I even got to read a proper book and less time reading trash on the internet. Yes a good day for me!

I'm not coping well. I just got triggered by a late night text. I was in a good mood until I got bombarded with a ton of questions. Just reminded me of how hopeless my situation seems. Maybe I will meditate, sleep then play my game. A reset might help me feel better.

did okay today, despite all that went on. and sadly, not surprised that 'my' things are still losing their enjoyment

I have a couple of simple tasks to take care of, hopefully, when they are done, I can allow myself to relax.

I feel ok I think I am coping though it varies regarding mental health,some days are more difficult than others,some days I am so low in mood I cannot function,other days I manage but struggle,some days are ok but it is never consistent.

Having a difficult time at the moment.

Ice cream for dinner and 2 cans of soda. Not good. But overall my moods and anxiety were fine today. So I guess I’m coping ok?

Discombobulated · Feb 02, 2020 at 09:01 AM

Back to work after a holiday today, I felt anxious about going back even though I don't have a stressful job. It was pretty low level anxiety though, just kept me awake longer than I would have been.

I am okay over all though.

despite my fears about Coronavirus, I went out and did what I needed to do today.

it was extremely busy though so had to wear my ear defenders (t's a weird concept, walking down the street with ear defenders on, but their we go) if it works.

lots of pushing and shoving

and annoying kids

and I had fibro pain too

I was honestly glad to get home and relax.

Deilla · Feb 02, 2020 at 11:37 AM

I'm coping today by staying busy. I'm just taking care of everything I can think of. It's a distraction.

Marylin · Feb 02, 2020 at 12:38 PM

Am doing ok ,I have been sleepy all day.I feel stifled,got this creative writing idea bubbling away and want to get it down on paper,
but can't commit to putting it down on paper,I am frightened of failure the idea will fizzle out and turn out to be a dud is my fear,so better not to try.
It is so frustrating to hold it all in for fear of failure.Not good it is my power which scares me more,what if I'm a success,can I handle that.
I got through today,coped,but fed up of just coping and just getting through.

I wish that I could say the same.

I feel really horrible today. I woke up feeling depressed and having anxiety attack from all the emotional abuse I gone through.

CuriousWin · Feb 02, 2020 at 07:42 PM

I'm coming down with a cold, but the doctor doesn't think it's serious.

Deilla · Feb 04, 2020 at 01:24 AM

I'm coping fairly well today. I'm using music to distract me and help me feel better.

winter4me · Feb 04, 2020 at 06:46 AM

Got coffee, fed the cat, got some music,
disappointed myself again (begged off sick for something I planned) but today, I am going to forgive that...I've got a sweater to knit and some thinking to do as I am not using a pattern...
guess there are some things I just can't do right now...maybe ever...
