Surviving Kind Of

I am starting each day at Zero and then I pick up through the day. So by dinner time I am about 6 or 5 anyway.
I spent a good deal of today chatting on here. Supportive people. Lik e doing this but I wish i had other hobbies, but I just dont....just smoking, watching TV, and the idea of reading but not actually doing much.
Just chat back to Ivan when he comes up with something......
but feeling better is better than nothing

Hi Dinah, I am glad you are feeling okay. I know what you mean when you say it is better to chat and feel better then to not chat and feel terrible. I personally decided to give up chatting because it was sucking away way too much of my time and energy. However. today has been rough for me, and on days like this I know chatting would help me past the time. The thing is, for me it is all or nothing. If I chatted today, I would really want to chat tomorrow, and the next day, and the day after that, well, you get the picture lol. I definitely think you need better hobbies then smoking, watching t.v., and chatting. Reading is great, I love to read. Try to force yourself to read and then see how you feel after. Really, there is nothing wrong with watching t.v. and chatting, just gets messy when you do too much of it. The smoking thing is no good lol, I am trying to help my mom quit. I hope things continue to get better for you and you eventually make it up to 9 and 10\'s during the day 8). Take care Dinah.

I think you\'re awesome, when I\'m feeling a bit blah I like to have a chat to people most of the time as it lifts me up I dunno how but it does which I guess is a good thing, hope things keep getting better for you. I know you will be ok and will do all you want to do in the near future if you get what I mean lol
