"kind of a blah day - its Monday and I feel a little down and a little tired"

Its just me.... Mood
Tuesday, September 15, 2009

Well, I've had a few ups and downs recently but for the most part, things are okay. I don't want to jinx this but I'm going to say it anyway; I might actually be happy right now. I mean, things aren't perfect and I have some issues of relative seriousness to work through but I feel good about mostly everything. I don't feel particularly anxious or sad which is a huge thing for me; for so long, I ran on being nervous and depressed.....I just can't do it anymore. It's exhausting!

 

I'm hoping that this stays around for awhile and I'm trying to hold on to the good thoughts in order to keep up the momentum.

 

I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

    You are right, it is exhausting. I guess I look at the hard times as an episode in my life but not my entire life. I always try to find three things each night that was good in the day. Once I set my mind to it, I can usually find more. You have to enjoy each day and not get so bogged down in the worry that you miss the good stuff. This is easier said than done, but I find that I can do it about 80% of the time. 80% is a passing grade so... :)
    Love and Blessings, Diane

Hump Day Happiness Mood
Wednesday, September 2, 2009 | A Positive story

Alright - how trippy is this; it's almost the third day in a row that I've been feeling (both physically and mentally) pretty good. I don't want to jinx myself but wanted to shout out to all of you that I am good!

 

I recently switched medication so that might have something to do with it.....which is good because for awhile there, I felt like I was hanging by a thread most days. I hate that!

 

Well, back to work for now...so, I'm signing off.

 

Hope all is well with whomever is kind enough to read this entry.

 

Share with me what is going on w/you!

Monday.....is that the sun I see through the clouds? Mood
Monday, August 31, 2009 | A General Update story

OMG - It's another Monday and although it started out looking rather dark and gloomy, I just noticed that the sun is poking its way through the clouds. YIPPEE.

I had a rough weekend; was really depressed and in a major funk but pulled out of it okay, I guess. I didn't sleep much last night and I predict that by the end of the day, I will want to fall flat on my face. But, I'm trying to maintain some momentum. I had a talk with Marc about 'us' last night and we plan to get together after work and my class tonight.

 

So, thanks to everyone's support. Once again, I've managed to get through without doing something really stupid like drinking...note to self; get to more meetings.

    Good for you! Sorry your weekend was upsetting. I was there too with mine. We both seemed to have pulled through things so I'm stoked about that. :)
