Thanks, JZ. Now go take your meds!
meara, no, my dose is low enough, I can safely just stop. Vitamin D makes a difference for me, but I take about 6000 IU a day. Not everyone wants to do that! My blood levels are good; I'm not taking too much.
I'm always lazy. I'm not always depressed. Right now, for whatever reason, I'm fine - I'm clear-headed, optimistic, and calm. (And still lazy.) What I think of as "normal". Let's see if it lasts! "Hahaha No" is a heavy favorite to win, with several wins in its corner already. Place your bets now, window closes in 24 hours.

Yeah, well, this is my problem. :) To be fair, at my dad's 70th birthday party, his family members were joking around that it's totally a [mylastname] thing, to be lazy as fuck. Which is funny given that they were hard working farmers, until his generation. But I guess lazy as they could be?? Being home for the past almost two weeks hasn't helped--I didn't really have enough work to do, but I never feel good about myself when I just fuck around and don't get things done.
therapy was a fucking disaster.
Oh, dear, askye. Are you okay?
not the worst I've been but it's difficult because I don't have a great connection with this therapist. I don't think it's a good fit and we jumped in the deep end.
I don't know what to do about that.
I wanted to come home and just.. I don't know, fall apart and I couldn't because E was here and I couldn't just hide in my room either and he didn't want to do his homework or finish his Valentine's or pay attention. I'm realizing I like kids in small doses and there's not goign to be a lot of small doses.
Right now I'm alone but only for another hour.
Mom freaks out or gets angry or just doesn't understand.
And I keep thinking about self harm which I haven't done and I won't but it's just one more thing to deal with.
That's hard, askye.
Is there anything particular you can do as a safety plan to avoid self-harm?
I'm sorry, askye. That's too much to deal with.
I'm distracting myself for the most part.
I may try to reach out to the therapist tomorrow.
askye, would it help to have someone call or IM you? If so, I'll happily do it (and I bet many other Bitches will too), and if not, just know that we're all sending you all the ~ma we've got.
I appreciate but I think I'm going to lie down for awhile and see if I feel better.
