    Ugh, was up real late last night worrying because I couldn't remember if I took my lamictal. Now I am feeling anxious and kind of weird but I'm unsure if I'm just still worrying or if I really did miss my dose.

    I've never really missed a dose before, so I'm not really sure how to gauge myself. Currently wondering how bad an idea it would be to just take a half my regular dose since my prescription is only half the max dose recommended for people and I've been taking it for a few years now, but maybe not the greatest idea.

    Oh wait.. I can just look up the date I filled it and do some math to see how many I have taken vs should've taken lol. Yay math

    fuck tammy! Prestigious

    Blue Cross approved my surgery but only 3 of the 5 days of the hospital stay lol. Says 5 days isn't WPATH guidelines or something

    I know my surgeons will take care of this, either through appeal now or medical necessity later, because there's no way they'll be letting me out earlier than 5 days. They have like a set plan of what they want you to do each day. Like day 2 you try to move to the chair next to the bed. Day 3 is literally walking a couple minutes lolol

    In my depression, I honestly have started to look forward to dying. I don’t want to die today or tomorrow, but the thought this all will all end someday is sort of comforting. My fear is reincarnation, that we come back as another life form and maybe this existence is perpetual. Not sure how healthy this way of thinking is but it’s honest.

    It really sucks when you’re upset and just want to call someone to come over bc you don’t want to be alone but then you remember you have literally no one you can call. I just really want some friends.

    I don't mean this to sound compliment fishing, but sometimes I wonder what it's like to be talented at something. Like standout, one of the best in ur field at something. I mean I know talent doesn't equate to happiness but it'd be cool to be good at something that isn't like an extensive knowledge of Britney Spears trivia

    Yeah I know what you mean. Especially lately, I reflect a lot on how I'm not particularly good at anything. Like I'm not talented or charismatic or articulate or accomplished. Doesn't feel good!

    Growth mindset wants me to say that we're not good at anything... Yet! We can become good at things! But I feel like I don't commit or follow thru on anything to get good. Like I want to but I lack persistence and always give up

    maybe we can pool our Britney knowledge into a business venture
    no we can't

    I feel the same way and get jealous at talented people, especially if they're also hot fuck you

    Also I've been thinking about having my daughter see a child psychologist or something. She's showing a lot of disinterest lately, she's increasingly shy and refuses to try and make friends in our new neighborhood, she has trouble sleeping every night.

    If I do that it probably means I can't see my psych, no way I can pay for two of them

    Also today I expected to feel a certain way if I got my desired outcome, but I got my desired outcome and feel terrible. Idk why. Maybe cause despite the good outcome I don't think I did my best? Or maybe cause my desired outcome still sucks idk. I am having trouble sleeping and focusing as a result. Lately I can successfully redirect my brain for the moment by watching Frasier lol, but it's not dealing with whatever the underlying issue is so it's not fixing anything. Bummed I don't have a therapy appt this Friday like I usually do. I have to wait until next Friday and sometimes with the passing of some time I bury it and downplay it and don't rly discuss it like I should

    Cause I'm running low on these hours of mine Prestigious

    Been doing poorly mentally, so I'm going to try and get out of my rut by actually going into the city this weekend. There's some cherry blossoms festival and an artist I like will there, which is cool. Now to actually force myself to go out there.

    Omg this week just sucks. I've gotten off work late every day and will tomorrow and Monday as well. Nature of the work has been depressing. There have been a lot of tears in the office and it's been tough to be around. I've become so unmotivated again and didn't take my meds last night but I will today, and my lack of motivation has caused me to leave food out and have it get wasted and then I feel guilty and messy. My bff who I was concerned about who got pregnant decided to terminate and I know it wasn't an easy decision and I wish I could do more to be a support. I looked into getting my masters degree and spoke to an advisor but the cost and field hours seems so impossible and daunting. Idk. Just lots of draining things. Even pop culture hasn't been a good escape cause my feeds are all about Britney mental health conspiracies. Hopefully this weekend can have a new start and feel better for next week.

    Quitting drinking again has helped but I still feel down

    I was right. Prestigious

    @DarkHotline you feel down now but this feeling is not permanent, especially since you’re actively taking steps to improve by quitting drinking
    you are strong and capable and so deserving of happiness
