Reclaiming my life
I have to get my life back. I'm sick and tired of being depressed, sitting at home all day either sleeping, posting on the computer and sleeping. I think I'm going to work on sleeping first, since I have new sleeping pills and I feel good when I wake up. I have to be up early tomorrow to figure out when my doctor's appointment is.... I got a call today in Spanish saying I have an appointment tomorrow, but when I called last Monday they told me it was on Friday. So I have to get it cleared up. The woman was talking so fast in Spanish that it's hard for me to determine what time she said, so I have to wake up early in case it's in the morning. I hope it's on Friday since it's with my regular doctor that we have been working with. I need referrals, medication update, stuff like that. I would have to start from the beginning with a new doctor. It's all in the same place, same company, but most of the doctors speak mainly Spanish and I'm not fluent, especially in medical terminology. I am feeling better, though. I'm still having mood swings, but I slept better last night

I am so with you..... I need to reclaim my life too! Ive let everything get out of control and slip back into depression but I think im ready to start trying to climb back out. Thats really a smart thing to do is pick one area your are struggling with (sleep) and just focus on getting that handled first before tackling other things. Keep moving forward im gonna try to do the same .... HugggzZz
One step at a time, my friend. That is all we can do. hugs
agree, tackle one thing at a time or it is overwhelming. i think many of us are feeling the way you do, lets make a group effot! hugs
everyone needs things to look forward to. have you ever done a marathon? i started prepping for a marathon next year - just completing one. that alone, the thought helped. lost four pounds the first week i started doing BRISK walks of one mile instead of taking the dog with me. but that is all so far on that.
