Sometimes I wonder what all the hard work is for. Constantly striving to achieve a sense of normalcy in the midst of the insanity. Like chasing a bone on a stick, its just out of reach, unattainable.

I realize my good situation may not stay. For now I'm so fortunate to be on the right meds. I'm hopeful and happy again. After so much misery and depair. Alot of trial and error. I'm in a good spot i wish the same for you all with the right med combo.

    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.
