Well, crap. I guess it's time for me to be honest here.

[icewolf010]

In my neverending quest to de-stigmafy (it's a word now, dammit) mental illness, I need to be honest. I haven't been particularly well. I haven't been back to my self-harming, stay in bed all day levels, but I've been... meh. Sleeping when my body isn't tired, mindlessly watching the Cooking Channel, even avoiding Facebook because it's just too

So sorry to hear it, but grateful for the update. Hang in there -- if anyone can triumph thru this, it's YOU.

My Place of Employment is always hiring, and while it can be soulsucking, it's also FANTASTIC for extra income. If you're interested, drop me a private message via LiveJournal and I'll give you the details.

thinking of you.

i'm in similar shoes if you ever need to talk.

I am sorry you are having such troubles. I myself am "being there, doing that" right now. (I hear you about Farmville.)

But at least you have identified the problem/s and decided on an action plan so you are not powerless. Keep to the plan, take your meds and stay active and properly nourished. That will help. And until it does, act "as if."

This message brought to you by my pep-talking shrink. I hear them so often I can repeat them rote. Non-rote: if you want to talk, I'm here.

Sorry to hear things keep being so hard.

I'm impressed by how much clarity you have about the self care things you can do, and what you can't. Sometimes it's so hard to separate out what's taking care of yourself from what's taking on things that aren't in your control.

Hear you about the job search, too; it's like joining a mailing list and sending in coupons to get punched in the ego.

Hope it gets easier.
