Yesterday I had a really bad day. I had been happy for weeks with little issues but suddenly it hit me with a big bang. I was out for the count because of my depression. I couldnt function no matter how hard I tried. I thought about commiting suicide. I sobbed uncontrollably for hours, had horrible thoughts. Scared my mom half to dealth because I was alone on the side of the highway crying in my car on the phone with her trying to get some advice, as she has bipolar too. I got to work and they told me to head home. I went home for the day and stayed in bed. Today, I feel much better. Going to school and work. Hopes that today is better than yesterday.

I did the dumbest thing today. I charged my earbuds, unplugged the block and put the block in my little bag instead of the earbuds. I wasn't happy about that when I got to the gym. What a dummy!
I am impressed with how well you handled it. Wow. Hoping I'll figure out some of your survival tools as I get to know you better. Please share. I've gotten better at handling my sudden shifts, but still feel like I need more tools for it. "Bliss Gone Amiss" sounds like a good name for allot of my sudden shifts and, girly howdy, they bite the big one.
