It’s been muggy and rainy here and the rain is going to continue.
My mood is level though school has me WAY stressed.
I’m off today and tomorrow so will continue to complete assignments.
I am grateful for the extra money I am making with this job that I am quitting on Friday :)

Hi Marsha! I do some dbt stuff with my therapist when we have time. I did a group for a month or so but it was an hour away and only one other person. I didn’t feel I got much out of it so I quit.
Sun, it’s supposed to rain here all week too.

Rain here too.

Getting through Monday on the job. It’s ok. Busy but going fast.

Plan for the week is to keep plowing through work until the valley of the weekend. Also work on class assignments.

One thing I’m grateful for? I went to the grocery stores yesterday and have nice full fridge, freezer, pantry and am grateful for my little humble abode.

Today has been hard. I haven’t been sleeping too well and am going back and forth between a short temper/ crazy head and anxiety. I wish I could take my brain out give it a spring clean and pop it back in.

Weather has been nice though which is a blessing.

It's hot here, maybe thunderstorms later - I like a good storm : )

Not doing well, but working on it - a friend just called and invited me to the gym, even pick me up.... I'm going, really don't want too but I am..

So good to be back here!

I also love a good thunderstorm

It's 85 and sunny today. I went and got my hair colored and cut today then went to Kohl's and bought some clothes. I needed some jeans and I also bought a couple tshirts on sale.
Home now, watching TV with my son. I plan to do some cleaning later.
I feel great today. I have today and tomorrow off work.

Hi everyone!
Gloomy and cloudy weather here. I’m in a pretty decent mood even though I didn’t sleep well.

This Sunday I plan to see a good friend whom I haven’t spoken to in a year… she kind of got fed up with me for flaking (during low episodes). She doesn’t know about my bipolar2 but I’m thinking about sharing. I love her but I know it’s hard to be friends with me when I become unreliable in one of my lows ..

Summer struggles, sleep issues, finding myself doing many things and not finishing any of them....How am I ever going to transition to a creative business? My mood is good I'm lifting weights as it turns out I have missed my dumb bells...guys in the weight room have no idea what to make of me!

Stells I struggled with keeping friends too. I burned so many bridges due to being mentally ill and it sucked. Looking back it was for the best.
May that is great you are lifting again. I wish I was motivated to work out

Well a few months ago i decided to find out what my due date would have been for my first baby, the one conceived by r***. My baby would have been due on March 4th of 2006. They would be 20 years old. I was R**** on June...
