Broke
Right now I'm flat broke. I'm negative in the bank. My mom is sending me money on Friday, but I have to wait until then. Richard, my stepdad, is going to send me a check as well. I don't know when I'm going to get that check. Hopefully I can get it soon so I can be in the positive side in the bank. This is going to be an expensive month... It's Geo's birthday on Halloween and I want to have enough food stamps to get him a cake and a steak dinner. That, or sushi, whatever he wants. I don't know if I'm going to have enough money to take him out. he says he doesn't want anything from me, but I want to do something for him.
I'm going to try and get up early to see my psych tomorrow. I might wait until 11 am to go, but I want to go at 8 am. I'm going to set my alarm for 7 am and hopefully feel good enough to go in. I might even try and volunteer. I don't know yet... it's all about how I feel tomorrow. I want to go for a walk, but it's too late. I haven't been walking lately. I haven't since Sunday. I've just been lazy and busy at night. I've been tired and having migraines since my last step down of Celexa. I'm on the last bit.. on Saturday I will be done with it. I'm going to try and get back on Seroquel since I had good luck with that. it didn't do too much for the hallucinations, but it did help me with my sleep. I'm also not on a mood stabilizer, so I want to get one of those as well. I want to change the Risperdal to Seroquel and keep going on the Prozac. I have to talk to my psych tomorrow about it. I hope he's okay with it.

I hope you can treat Geo, sounds like a wonderful birthday gift. Funny thing, if I run out of money, I am out. I use to be able to go to my father, and I relied on him so much. I miss him so much and nothing will bring him back. He was always there for me. At least you have people who care and will help you. I often wish I did, but I don\'t. I think you are a wonderful person and a wonderful friend and I hope like heck you can treat Geo to cake and a steak dinner. Thta sounds so nice.
I am in such a foul mood that trust me if giving up the nicotine is suppose to be so good for me, it is making me feel so dang sad. I admire you for the ability to change meds. When I do it, I get so dang suicidal. LIke who the heck cares anyways?
Just remember Larissa, you and Ann mean the world to me. You are a loving person and you deserve peace and happiness. Hugs
I\'m sorry to hear about your money situation right now. I\'m in the same boat. I pray things get better for you soon and that you feel better soon. Big hugs!
money, and the stress it causes. it is an awful thing living with lack of money and bilss etc.. hanging over your head. I am happy that you will be getting help and I hope the check comes soon. the birthday dinner with geo sounds great, I hope you can do it. I am glad the last pill is Saturday and hopefully no more sideffects. you seem to know your meds well and what works for you so I hope this pschy. is willing to listen and do what is right for you. hugss
I am in the same boat as far as money... there just never seems to be enough to do everything that needs to be done.. That is so nice of your mom and step father to send you alittle to get by till next paycheck. I think you do an excellent job of budgeting the little you have but sometimes things happen and it just cant all be budgeted to meet the needs all in one month. I have an aunt that if there is a sever need that cant be covered i know that i can go to but i have so much incredable guilt in doing so but i have asked her when its been something like food or help if there is something like a auto repair that i can handle all in one month and then i just make little payments to pay her back over time.
I think that sounds like an awesome idea for Geo birthday .... by what he says he dont expect you to do something thats very understanding on his part but i know how it is to want to show someone you care by doing something nice for them on their special day. Maybe if it cant be done on his exact date then still do it after the first when you have alittle more money to do it? Or instead of buying a cake already made look around on the internet for some creative homemade cakes... i have found some really cool cake ideas on the internet...... just a silly idea but make him a castle cake ( i made one before done in pink for my grandaughter before its easy) and tell him part of his birthday is to be King for the day lol. Sometimes when i am so low on money i get creative to make the person feel special.
HugggzZz i hope the meds adjustments and all that get straightened out soon so you are feeling alot better.
you sounds much better, so hopefully the prozac is working out well for you? a LOT of people are on prozac and love it. call it their \"happy pill\" makes them not care very much about ANYTHING (sounds like heroin, does the same thing, a person\'s own little bubble and nothing touches you).
the money situation sucks. have you tried to make deals with the credit card company on your own and save $1300 or try \"community legal\" sometimes that works? is your debt even $1300? or is the lawyer costing you more than the actual debt? xxoo
