still feel like crap
This is like me I don’t know from one minute to the next what my mood will be. I’m so... frustrated and depressed. I usually get this #@$# under control in about a week but we are heading into week 4 and I am worse than ever. Yesterday, I spray painted my electric candles that were beige a bright red. Then I had all kinds of plans for decorating inside. Well, while I was spraying I just kept on thinking about how much I had to do and got more depressed to the point I ended up crying. So I carted myself upstairs and got into bed fully clothed. I even had on a light fleece jacket because the basement is cold. When hubby came home he found me curled up in a little ball crying. He had been trying to get me on the phone and so had my daughter but I did not answer. He is very concerned. Well, quite frankly, so am I!!! because I’m bi polar 11 I cannot take the little pills that act quickly like atavan (sp??). I have to suffer it out. The only recourse I have is bed and try to knock myself out with sleeping pills. Don’t worry I never od on them, I’m careful. Even though I feel horrid, I don’t have a death wish.Anyway, today I am a bit better or so I tell myself. My honey got up at his usual 5:00 and he had a lot of decorating done when I came down around 8:00. Then we worked at it slowly. I have a lot of stuff!! So it is now almost suppertime and everything is done but the tree and the garland above the cupboards. I will work away at the tree and michael will help me with the garland tomorrow night.I have company coming for a visit tomorrow actually for a luncheon. I already made the stuff so tomorrow will just be a little prep. I pray I am up to it!!I’ll do the final cleanup tomorrow morning, just needs to be swiffered and vacuumed downstairs.Anyway, thanks for all your support and I have been able to answer a few of the journals. I’ll do my best. Til next time, be well. Debbie

Hi my wonderful friend! Big Hugs for a wonderful Sunday. I\'m taking a little break while my grandson Meade 1 and Brandon 5 take short naps before ther Mother comes to see them. In case you haven\'t read my journals she left her boys alone twice once in Aug when she went into the store in a hot car, and them the day after Thanksgiving she left them in her apt while she went to WalMart. Alex and I are taking care of them till DFS returns them to her. Good question when. So I have my hands full. Tomorrow my Mother will be gone 1 year already where oh where does the time go. I pray that your luncheon will go well. Part of my decorations are up. It is very hard with a 1 year old. Take each day one step at a time. Don\'t look at the whold picture. If I did I would have lost my mind a long time ago. Take care Love ya\' Suzanne
hey girl, i know how you feel... take a deep breath... it will be okay... hugs... and your friends here on ds... love you...
Debbie, I\'m so sorry you are suffering so much. It has to be so hard to get through your days when you suffer like that. May I ask why you can\'t take the faster working pills?
I\'m so glad that you have a wonderful man who loves you so much to pitch right in and help get things ready for the holidays. You are truely blessed!!
Take care dear friend & I hope you feel better soon.
hugs, Cathy
What a good hubb to do all that fot you, he is a keeper. I sure wish you would feel better. You will, just hang in there. Usually takes me a couple weeks. But I can take Klonopin, why can\'t you take a tranquilizer of some kind? Everything but the tre is done so then some of your stress will be over and your can relax...did I say that, we don\'t relax. See you in my prayers. Naomi xo
