it definitely feels like everything is backfiring on me---i try so hard, and still manage to screw it all up. i reach out to my friends, and they just keep turning me away by not answering my calls.

Me too. people think I am crazy as a shit house rat when it comes to calling people when I need someone to talk to. I call like 50 times until they call me back or get the phone. I have lost friends that way too.

I've learned that I've tended to overwhelm others alot with this illness we have. And I've chased a lot of people away. But I also found new friends in my recovery. Through that I have learned to watch what I say and how I say it as not to run someone off. But it ain't easy! LOL!

Mine is text messaging. I really try to restrain myself tho, because I know it has gotten a bit annoying. And I know it annoys the hell outta me when people call me repeatedly. Course I get a million calls a day from various bosses so my phone is ALWAYS going off.
Anyhoo, Call once. give em a coupla hours, try again. Leave a message. I think they were right about them missing you. I don't call my friends for a few days and everyone starts wondering where I am and why I haven't been hanging around.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
