• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

I got out of bed.

I did not feel motivated to shower today. I missed my classes, but I did email one of my professors to explain my absence. That was a big step for me, because I do not want to use my illness as an excuse, but since I have begun receiving treatment I thought that I should let my professor know that it might affect my academic performance while I get adjusted to medication.

I took my medication today, and I look with hope to tomorrow. It is one day closer to recovery, I hope.

Made it thru work. Once someone offered to work my shift tomorrow...my day went much better than it started out.

I actually made supper for the guys. I thought I'd give em a break from making their own.

Other than that...I'm wasted...and no more things will be accomplished this day.

I went to class today. I am in university, but I have not been going to class for the past week because I have felt so terrible. Today I wrote a midterm and knew the vast majority of the material. :)

I also spoke to my chaplain about the difficulties I have been having. In turn he telephoned my doctor and got me an appointment today. Hopefully the struggles I have been having with the medication can be resolved soon.

I slept all day due to bad cramps and a general feeling of "There's really no point in being awake anyway because there's nothing to do except sit around". However, I'm baking a pie now and I think I might feel better once I eat some of it.

Being a girl is no fun at all. :(
