serotonin is everything :)
a good friend told me that that other day while we were texting back and forth
about having a challenging day... it was a call to action, to do something...anything
with my time to change my energy, perspective and way that I felt.
I totally agree with it - and yet...and here's the but...
I find myself having that need for action right now - and not really knowing what to do...
well I have come here to talk it out...Here I am being whiney - but it's like
I don't like my options.. I should just feel grateful that I have options...eh?
Ugg I am really sick today guys.. I had a tough day at work just getting things done
and then I think it was like I was so tired on the drive home I had a hard time focusing
on driving - like going in and out of consciousness - but I did it - and was so grateful
to have made it.
So I did the routine of taking care of things when I got back..played with Blue and had lunch..
Did some paperwork and then took a nap.
Writing this out certainly helps! Peace!!

Writing things out defo helps out, hoping taking the nap helps too, have a good Thursday mate!
Thanks Rich! You as well!!
Writing things out, and No I Don't See Whiny At All...you are expressing how you feel...it's your journal, personally I find your writing about seeking 'more' to help me activate myself. Sometimes there are just 'off days'. My friend who had similar dx as you said when he felt similar, it was like he is a train going down the tracks...then there is a "y' and he has to make a decision which way to go...signals of red, yellow and green are flashing....there is the confusion and questioning that he faces....some times he slips off the track too...Pdoc visit.
Your day, yes some times work is Not Fun, You Pushed Through...got home and Did Your Routine, Played with Blue, ate and slept for a bit. Look at all you did that was right Mark!!! By doing those things, you avoided confusion, and took care of physical and mental health too. :) The name of the game :)
With the seasons changing, for me, and lots of others, all the challenges in our Country and World....there are Many Who are 'switching tracks, falling off tracks....you my friend are doing the best you can to maintain your life....Huge!
Thanks so much mlr!!!
Writing isn’t whining ... it’s releasing and reflecting.
Thanks Sensitive!
Pain exists to let us know something is wrong. Fix it before it escalates. Ya can't fix ^it^ until you acknowledge ^it^. One word for that acknowledgement is as good as another. If ya wants to call that acknowledgement, "whining," let me warm up my violin for the melodrama. I've always thought I would make a terrifical soundtrack composer.
Over my decades of being stubborn enough to get what I want and crazy enough to never want what I get, I have become convinced that my personal preferences are not that important. Do I **really** know what the fuck I want, anyway? For sure, I seldom *want* what I *need*.
Life is far simpler when I *just* work with what is available and take it play by play, whatever the ^it^ in play on any given day.
thanks arfie!
