I am a very good boy. We went to the pickle festival. I didn't bite anyone and I got to watch some professional wrestling! Unfortunately we couldn't find any pickle lemonade or fried pickles.
I ate a lemon bar almost right when we got there and a few cinnamon sugar cider donuts with Pauley a little before 3. I was extremely thirsty and I drank a bottle of Arnold palmer, a cup of caramel apple cider, and an almond joy iced coffee. This thirst is gonna be the deatf of me.
On the plus side I didn't get sick but gosh damn I had a really awful migraine that laughed at my Ubrelvy. But all told I had a good day. Now we're home, I peeled sweat soaked clothes off, and I'm charging my phone. Pauley looked very pretty. She got a really nice compliment on her skirt!
I'm still painfully thirsty. No matter what I drink I'm always thirsty. I am gonna mention it to my doctor next month. I think I'm fine, maybe it's a side effect of my meds. No big deal. But it's heavy enough to make me really dehydrated. That's the main problem.
My tummy actually just started hurting. I'm gonna skip coffee at home today. I'll make up for it tomorrow.
I cannot believe how comfortable my boots are. They're cushioned in the entire interior. And they don't get ungodly hot and sweaty. They're super awesome and they look steampunk AF!
They had some BBQ food trucks but I didn't have enough time to get the chopped brisket. It's my fave. Maybe next time.

I am so sad because I might have to leave the relationship I’m in
I just want to be me and I can’t in the relationship I’m in. I can’t do this anymore and I’m starting to feel depressed. I’m isolating myself and I’m trying to hide who I am. #MentalHealth

Where to start
Hi there my name is Armando Gutiérrez. I've had this app for a long time but have been terrified about posting anything.
I have had my battles with mental health pretty much my whole life I've always felt out of place I don't even know where to begin to get the help I need I only have medi-cal my girlfriend and autistic daughter and aspergian autistic step son r staying with mt in law's in a very difficult situation.
My battles have been with insomnia, anxiety & depression I feel like I was undiagnosed autistic growing up personal relationships and family relationships have always been very difficult for me but let me loose on a job site for cabinets are involved and I am a completely different person,
subsequently I tried to self medicate stuff i am not proud of I need directions and not sure what else I've been on antidepressants off and on for a while I went cold turkey about 4 weeks ago and now on just diabetes high blood pressure cholesterol medication with melatonin tossed in to help me sleep. When I can or wear myself out

Going to an art gallery #Depression #Anxiety #Relationships #PTSD #solitude #MentalHealth
For a large portion of my life I hated being alone and loved social gatherings. Some years ago that all changed. Now I love and crave solitude. I don’t enjoy crowded or loud environments.
Yesterday my Wife said to me, “You need to get out more”. Her comment came after I did a major clean up at home and put some of her things away that she wanted easy access to. She was right. I have been seeking bulk time alone lately.
So today I got public transport to an art gallery I love. It was very enjoyable. My wife’s comment was valid. It is easy to isolate yourself. Sometimes that is probably ok but not long term.
Is there something you need to do that you have been putting off?

What is it like to have a mom who had you enmeshed, then you broke free, and years later you're trying to form a new relationship with her?
This is basically my story, and it was difficult, but after 10 years of breaking free from enmeshment. I had to learn to get my own mind, live my life for me, and know no one else. Now my parents are no longer my biological parents, but now they are my stepparents; they lost that right emotionally years ago. #Abuse #CPTSD #BPD #PTSD #Enmeshment #MentalHealth
4 reactions Today’s Feast Day
Today the Church celebrates the Feast of St. Bartholomew, also known as Nathanael. He was one of Christ’s Twelve Apostles and walked with Jesus during His three-year ministry as a friend and devoted disciple.
Bartholomew was open to seeking truth. When Philip invited him to meet Jesus, he asked, “Can anything good come from Nazareth?” Yet he set his rash judgment aside and allowed Philip to lead him to Jesus.
He was honest. Jesus revealed this virtue at once, calling him an Israelite with no guile in him. He asked Jesus, “How do you know me?” He learned that Jesus had seen him sitting under a fig tree before Philip called him. This response, rich in mystery and meaning not revealed in Scripture, convinced him that Jesus was the promised Messiah.
He had deep faith, and his open heart was ready to receive Truth. After Jesus revealed the “fig tree moment” to Bartholomew, he believed and professed Jesus as the Son of God and the King of Israel. Jesus told Bartholomew he would see greater things, and he did. He preached, healed the sick, cast out demons, and brought many souls to Christ.
Like St. Bartholomew, may we seek a relationship with Jesus that is open, honest, and deep.
Ugh and yay
I spent all day with horrible tummy pain and GI distress. I took 2 tramadol and 2 antidiarrheals and within an hour my pain went down from 9 to 7. After another 2 hours my pain was mostly gone. So I figured that was a good enough time to order us some special ice cream treatos.
I got her Jeni's brand lemon blueberry parfait flavor ice cream. For myself I got Afters brand Ube brownie flavor. Then I got us a 3rd pint to share. It's called midnight caramel river. It's vanilla ice cream with big rivers of fudge and salted caramel.
I feel much better now.
