Not going to therapy. OH is being a twat and said I can't leave him with DD for one hour (when I have her a week and he'll still fuck off with his mates later). Rage

Millie2013 · 14/02/2015 08:55

(Sorry, strop!!! But therapist thinks strop is a good thing as I'm stepping away from the victim role)

Ennn · 14/02/2015 09:01

Fell asleep eventually

Ennn · 14/02/2015 09:02

How annoying Millie.

Millie2013 · 14/02/2015 09:04

Have you got anything planned for today?

Ennn · 14/02/2015 09:16

Me? No.

Millie2013 · 14/02/2015 09:29

Nor me

I can't even go anywhere, as my car is kaput and we are managing with one at the moment, as OH only needs his on a Saturday afternoon

Mind you, he may spend his afternoon having a Valentine's card removed from up his arse....

Morning.
I'm off to a farmers market in a bit and then guinea pig sitting/feeding later today.

I'm going to try a 'run' this afternoon (4 min run, 1 walk) to see how calf copes. Using up my PT vouchers at David Lloyd, had a really good session and feel a bit more motivated to stuff my face with protein etc. Feel a bit more motivated in general I think?

CaulkheadUpNorth · 14/02/2015 11:49

Hooray for motivation - maybe lithium is being to work its magic?

I've only just got out of bed, so really ought to force myself to get dressed so that I actually make it to the market rather than just thinking about it!

PollyPooic · 14/02/2015 11:54

maybe? forgot about lithium, it wasn't exactly super low to begin with (just under 0.7 I think) but yeah

how are you getting on with it?

I'm up to 1200 and depakote too. I think it's fine, the psychiatrist is just adding in extra struggle until I stop sh and Thinking About Not Being Here.

Ennn · 14/02/2015 13:18

Revved up and on edge, but also knackered and just want to lie down, today. I have a cold and feel a bit shit. It's amazing how much physical health and even minor illness affects the mental stuff - I'm in awe of people who cope with serious physical illness as well as the mental.

Ennn · 14/02/2015 13:20

Envy guineapigs

Hope you enjoy the market Caulk

Pretty awful Sad How is everyone else?

Hugs, Up.
I'm not too bad, just tired after v little sleep last night. OH has gone out, but I'm playing with DD

Ennn · 14/02/2015 15:01

Hey Up, sorry to hear you're feeling so bad

I am not entirely sure how I am. Don't think i slept much, was buzzing too much last night (like literally felt oddly vibratey) and now can't sit down, keep shouting at DP Sad can't get my words out right unless I just fucking swear and stressing listening to music which all has fucking meanings, want to go out and burn off some energy, feels shitty, oddly. Don't understand it really, it's like there's something wrong with me.

OP posts:
Ennn · 14/02/2015 15:11

I don't fucking know Sad

Ennn · 14/02/2015 15:13

Three days ago I couldn't fucking move properly. Was hoping just to get undepressed, not like this shit.
