How are you coping today? #3

Breaking Dawn · Sep 29, 2020 at 02:29 PM

Today I have been coping by doing fun things, like sharing Poe's "The Raven" with my voices, & watching an enjoyable program on tv.

Been playing my game to distract myself.

Woke up in the middle of the night and can't sleep.

Today I am coping pretty well. I fulfilled a goal that I worried about. And I have some other things planned that I'm looking forward to. I really want to start making bigger strides & get back to a much healthier place. I've been there before, so I know it can be done.

I’m trying my best but I’m honestly struggling today. I saw this very disturbing ad on TV where the narrator said “there defunding the police, there entering residential neighborhoods.” And then some dude breaks into a ladies house. I’ve literally had a fear for years that something like that would happen, and like it just makes me kinda sick when my once very irrational anxiety’s aren’t exactly all that irrational anymore. Although my mom said the ad was very very exaggerated.

I'm doing Okay today. I've been playing my game, which really helps me. I'm avoiding all responsibilities. I just want to relax.

My cats are stressing me out. So I'm not coping well. I want to send them off to a boarding place for a week. All they want to do is eat all day long. I'm putting my headphones on and ignoring them. That's how I will cope.

Today I am coping with a somewhat newer way of looking at things.

Today was good - I did better at not dwelling and did some Pilates which did me good physically and mentally.

I’m coping pretty well today.

MuddyBoots · Oct 03, 2020 at 05:45 PM

I forget about this morning, and then like half an hour ago I was contemplating sui because I just couldn't cope, but what was upsetting me is no longer a problem so now I'd say I'm coping pretty well.

Breaking Dawn · Oct 04, 2020 at 12:40 AM

I coped fairly well today in spite of some difficulties. I was grateful for how well something turned out that I had been hoping for. I said prayers for friends & prayers of thanks.

Went to visit friends today. Did not overstay my welcome, exchanged gifts and made plans for a future event. Successful and mostly pleasant visit. Hoping to continue building good relationships. Appearing a little grouchy, trying to stay in a better mood and working on positive self-talk.

Deilla · Oct 04, 2020 at 05:35 AM

I think I am coping well. I'm doing little activities to help pass the time. And I ordered comfort food for breakfast. I plan to take a nap soon and cuddle with my kitties.

I ate so much my stomach now hurts. that is what I did today and it sucks so much. not that my stomach hurts, *(though it is ow), the fact that not only did I not get any sleep yesterday because of my pain, but my first thought was to sit on my chair and eat candy- not at all productive.

Mountaindewed · Oct 04, 2020 at 01:56 PM

I’m coping ok today. This morning was fine but now I’m pretty nervous and it’s almost 2 and I haven’t eaten anything yet. But I’m doing pretty well today and I’m not freaking out that badly.

Discombobulated · Oct 04, 2020 at 03:55 PM

I did okay today- work helps, and exercise too. I am trying to exercise daily as it really seems to help.

Discombobulated · Oct 05, 2020 at 02:02 PM

Hope everyone is doing okay today.

I got out for a good long walk this afternoon and it helped my mood a lot. I also listened to music at the same time.

Deilla · Oct 05, 2020 at 03:00 PM

I've been relaxing with little activities like crossword puzzles, word games and online coloring. I feel pretty good. Relaxation is helping me cope.
