...See more Because I don't know if I'm leaving the house today. Because anxiety is crippling. Because I'm stuck in my bed afraid to leave the house to go grocery shopping for goodness sakes. I don't know what to do. I want to talk to somebody but it seems that I'm not having too much luck with that. I hope you are all doing alright.

Second day of checking in

...See more There's a good chance I'll forget over the weekend, so here goes for today. Woke up to depression, yay. I usually fall asleep at 0000 but was so damn tired I fell asleep at 2230. Woke up at 0800 like I usually do and regretted those extra two hours. Over sleeping is a thing and let me tell you it sucks. I couldn't tell if I wanted to go back to sleep or just watch view animal videos for the REST OF THE DAY. Yep. Didn't even want to go to work. Spent a good bit doing that mind trick where you tell yourself you slept fine to trick your brain into adhering and heh what do you know it works. Doctors appointment, pristiq is up from 50 to 100. I am not complaining, pristiq is my saving grace. Work ensued, bought a couple of small bins, one for recycling, one for compost. Since I moved from an apartment to a townhouse it's been one adjustment to another. From having only a trash bin to having three different bins to put things in. From one floor to three. My knee hates me (torn ACL, waiting for surgery). So yeah, there you go. I hope you are all doing well. I'm working on it.

...See more Well ok, it wasn't that bad. It started out not great, depression is a jerk. I've been taken off mt anti depression medication cold turkey because it clashes with my anti anxiety medication. I'm very much experience depression and oddly enough, memory problems. So yeah, woke up depressed, downloaded this app, talked to a listener, got off my butt and fetched my uncle's low income bus pass. I go and sit down, have a very unhealthy sushi and fried rice brunch and oh no there's a school next door that's just unleashed it's not quite adult crap kids and oh no all the noise. Yay for audio triggered severe anxiety. Rush to connect to internet to call somebody, anybody, I need to hear a voice to help calm me down because I actually don't have actual phone service. I found some internet, Shaw I think, called the distress center, calmed down, went to work, and came home now to write this out. Let's see how I do with this daily thing because I suck with journals.
