Sleep and Exercise
It seems all I did today was sleep and exercise. It may sound funny, but it's true. I woke up and went to my psych doctor (walked there) and then went to the gym on my way home. I took a shower, ate a quick meal and then went back to the clinic, this time with Geo for his appointment. I came home and tried to stay up for a while, but ended up going to sleep. I had trouble sleeping last night (didn't fall asleep until after 1:30am) and was up at 10 for my appointment.
The appointment went well. The doctor was busy (the other doctors had called in sick and he was the only one there) but he still made me feel important. He raised my Depakote and Risperdal like I thought I might have to, so we will see how that goes. He gave me more klonopin than the 0.5mg that the other doctor had given me, so hopefully I will have more when I need it. I know I'm going to need it tonight, since I slept until 8pm. I'm actually still tired, I could probably sleep now, but then I would be up super early in the morning and I don't know how I would react to that. I might lay down when I'm done with this journal and see what happens.
Mood: I wrote some poetry last night. I don't know if it was any good or not, but I wrote and that's good. I seem to be depressed under the surface still, even if I do feel good on the outside. I don't want to mess with my Prozac though, because I need to stop mood swinging up before I add something that will make me go up even more. I'm keeping my mood as good, though, because until that inner depression shows up again there's no reason to worry about it.
Food: Today I had my macos for breakfast, some ramen for lunch, wild rice for a snack and regular dinner. I'm low on my protein for the day, but I don't want to eat anything else so I'm just going to leave it the way it is. If I need to eat more protein tomorrow to make up for it, so be it. Maybe I should get a protein drink or something to help me out, since protein is what I'm always low on.
