It's almost the last day of the year and I am so grateful for an end to 2018. Too many problems for me. My obnoxious neighbors have moved and it has been quiet and peaceful here, thankfully! I can't even begin to describe the abuse invoked by them. But it's' over! I can look forward to a new day now!

I hope 2019 is a great year for all of us!
I didn't stay up for the fireworks. I'm very tired lately. I've only exercised yesterday & today, though I may have overdone it today. Think that weird strep I had with more flu-like than strep symptoms might have me taking a week, week & a half to get completely well. Not to mention, I will be glad when I am done with the antibiotic. ED thoughts have me feeling guilty over not dieting and not losing weight. I exercise a ton, eat generally normally - with the exception of breakfast, don't know why, I often skip it, and I don't think I possibly eat enough calories to sustain my weight. I don't binge eat at all and suspect Seroquel is keeping me weight stable or it's a set point weight. Makes me want to stop Seroquel cold turkey and see what happens, which would no doubt be mania, but I get those thoughts of just tossing all the meds but the Adderall & Wellbutrin & keep some Klonopin around. I'd do it, except I have a family & responsibilities. Most especially I need to be careful not to pass this screwed-up disease to my daughter. I felt so guilty over having around 2 servings of Wheat Thins as a snack late morning when I hadn't had breakfast, what kind of messed up thinking is this anyway?! __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, anorexia, panic disorder, ADHD Seroquel, Cymbalta, , propanolol, buspirone, Trazodone, gabapentin, omeperazole I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: two roads diverged in a wood, and I - I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. --Robert Frost |

I'm happy for 2019. I'm hoping to get stable again with the schizoaffective/bipolar symptoms. The past several months things have gradually been falling apart with my mental health. Psychotic symptoms again, not sleeping, panic attacks. I'm wondering what's happening to me. I mean, I've experienced this stuff before but I had a 6 month period of remission, it just seemed like I'd never have to deal with it again.
So to relate this to my ED, I haven't been eating anywhere near enough and a large percentage of the time it's not intentional. My mind races and hours go by before I realize I haven't eaten. Days just kind of blur together. I'm going grocery shopping tomorrow though. I haven't had food in the house the past week, just crackers and pretzels and a little bit of oatmeal. Again not intentional, I mismanaged my food budget last month. My fridge is empty, same with my freezer and cabinets. I've basically been living off that and coffee. I plan on having a bagel with cream cheese in the morning though as soon as I run over to the store. I can't wait. I've been so dizzy and cold. I hope I'm not triggering or upsetting anyone __________________ R.I.P mom 8/6/55-1/15/16 “All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.” -St. Francis of Assisi

Making wiser decisions is something I need to do to and not be impulsive. Sometimes I have acted on impulses and regretted it. Stress relief yoga sounds great! I'd have to start with beginners. I am so out of shape. Everytime I start to exercise my body hurts so bad that I quit. Got to get some cold packs to put on the aches and start the exercise again. __________________ One way to get the best out of life is to think of it as an adventure.

I hope to get an appointment to take her in today. I've been cleaning up diarrhea off the carpet for 3 days now. I feel real bad for her; not sure why she is sick. This is the second time in 2 mos.

Woke this morning to a low weight, made the stupid ED happy. Starting to obsess more over the bones and stuff, did really bad and went on a pro-ana site, then thinking OMG, my weight isn't low at all; I'm fat. I'm a mess. I ran in the rain for an hour this morning, wanted to keep going, but I had to get back in to make lunch. Contemplated another rain run in the afternoon but resisted and read some of my library book. Need a better day tomorrow.
My emotions are all jumbled up; I have no idea how I feel right now. H starts his new job tomorrow, and hopefully, we will get the insurance stuff sorted quickly. __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, anorexia, panic disorder, ADHD Seroquel, Cymbalta, , propanolol, buspirone, Trazodone, gabapentin, omeperazole I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: two roads diverged in a wood, and I - I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. --Robert Frost |
