Tired.

Deilla · Apr 02, 2019 at 04:04 PM

Feeling bored and lonely. I just want to sleep. But if I do, I will feel bad.

I've got to get my bf into a nursing home, at least temporarily, because I'm losing my ability to cope. I'm overwhelmed (finally,) and I can't even pretend I'm doing a good job, at this point. I'm not. I'm not meeting all his physical needs, and I've become so irritable, I'm not even nice to him.

It's good that I know what I have to do. However, I am having a hard time summoning up the energy to move ahead with what comes next.

I'm not feeling real depressed. Mainly I just feel disgusted with everything.

Somehow I've got to get these arrangements for him made. I just want to give up.

Not busy at work today again. I have found out that the reason I'm not busy is because a lot of people are working from their homes instead of coming to the office. So that is hurting me with my job since I do deliveries of packages and mail. This has happened because there's been a severe parking problem. Recently I heard that the company is going to change that by requiring the people to come to the office to work.

One highlight of the day at work was that I had picked up a lizard that was in the restroom and took it outside.

Went bike riding after work and went to the pool area; and it was nice there. Now it would seem like a kick if the pool area is going to be nice up to the day I leave my complex.

yesterday I was told that we might get snow, but apon looking outside, their isn't any (it's just sunny)

I'm definitely disappointed, I was looking forward to going out their and building a snow hotel (which I did last year, it was fun!)

guess i'm okay emotionally, just sat here doing nothing again

Been sleeping all day. Don't feel like doing much of anything else.

Sunflower123 · Apr 03, 2019 at 05:51 PM

Checking in. Not much to report. I sat in the sun most of the day enjoying the weather. Going to celebrate my brother’s birthday tonight.

I met with my new NP yesterday and really liked her. We’ll see.

Warm wishes and hugs to all.

Rose76 · Apr 04, 2019 at 01:02 AM

Not a good day.

How long before I will have another good day.

What is a NP? What does a NP do?

Deilla · Apr 04, 2019 at 05:25 AM

I'm bored and tired. Only thing that seems interesting or feels good is sleep. I feel lonely and frustrated.

NP is a Nurse Practitioner. Among other things, they can prescribe medication under a doctor’s supervision.

I had a wonderful psychiatrist who was like a therapist/friend/psychiatrist rolled into one prescribe medication for 17 years and I had to quit seeing him abruptly because of an insurance issue. I was heartbroken. He recommended that I see his NP so he could still supervise my case and I really like her. I’m very grateful it turned out so well.

I feel like I'm stuck in mud.

I don't have the energy to work. I don't feel like participating in my hobbies. I don't want to go out with friends.

I have been trying to eat well and run more often, which makes me feel healthy, but I literally have no motivation to do anything.

I had big plans to go backpacking this summer and I can't even get myself to look at hikes. Things I normally do to cheer me up don't work anymore. I don't know what to do.

Hope you will continue to feel well together with her!

Irritated.

Was pretty busy this morning at work. Very slow after lunch. But it was a pretty good day emotionally anyways. Yesterday I had signed paperwork for selling my condo unit. The woman I was working with seemed to think that I act worried. Well, I am a natural worrier. I wish I wasn't. She kept on assuring me that everything will be alright.

Took a bike ride after work today. My friend went out with his son and grandchildren tonight to a concert at a local college. I thought that he was going to be home tonight.

Rose76 · Apr 06, 2019 at 03:42 AM

I'm better than I was. I think I've found a way forward out of darkness.

Deilla · Apr 06, 2019 at 04:57 AM

Feeling angry this morning. I'm frustrated with my online T. She's not being as helpful as I would expect. I get more benefit coming here than I do going to her. I guess I just have to let it go. I canceled the service. It's just that I have 3 weeks left.
