Not Coping

Not Coping

Hey everyone how are you all?

@RiverSeal @Shaz51 @NatureLover @tyme @Former-Member @Eve7 @Former-Member @amber22 @Jynx @FloatingFeather

I'm not doing great at all today. I'm feeling down. I also keep beating myself up for everything and feel like I'm just failing. I need a break from everything. It's getting so hard that I don't know how to keep going anymore especially since I can't talk to anyone around me as they are leaving me or don't understand.

Hope you don’t mind me reaching out I just really need a chat and though I could come on here and vent and talk for a bit.

Thank you

Maybe time to put the squishmallow to good use 🙂 @Birdofparadise8

Anything else you can do to distract yourself or look after yourself tonight?

I have it with me now @lavenderhaze

I don't know. I'll most likely cry after dinner.

Oh also my GP said my mood stabilizer has drooped out of the therapeutic range so that's probably why things have been worse. Hoepfuly after she speaks with my pdoc it can get increase. @tyme @lavenderhaze

Re: Not Coping

That's good to know @Birdofparadise8 . May be a good reason. Which also tells me that that med worked? Is that fair to say?

Re: Not Coping

Oh yes defiently @tyme

It's been a lifesaver/ It's augmented my other medication to help. After discharge in October, I'm sure you know that things started to improve for a bit.

When I was in the hospital, one of the nurses said I absorbed medication a lot so more is needed. The Pdoc at the hospital said I wouldn't need to increase it, but it seems like I will if it's dropped by 0.2mmol. It needs to be at 0.6mmol.

But then she gave me a PRN, and I didn't even notice I took it, so that kind of gives it away.
