wish

Well, didn't work out with the shelter my friend & I went to a little over a week ago. As I posted earlier, they tore out my broken heart. #good thing is, another friend & I are working on an alternative means of adopting from a different, more considerate #Shelter , where we will have a much better chance of my bringing home my new #Furbaby . Here's putting #Hope into my #wish & that it will work out #wonderfully . 🙏

Today my deep sadness (severe depression) including grief, prevents me from celebrating in the right spirit. This morning, (& nearly all the past year )since my cat had to be put to sleep due to her illness, I've been waking up by myself -no one to wake up to/with & no one to share the day(s) with. I just can't do Christmas today. But I still cling to a bit of hope for a better life (after I get another Cat) - I'm hoping & wishing, & praying

This is a place where we can share our #Thoughts and our #feelings to one another. I have been #Trying hard to make things right with my life, and I know that it is difficult. I think a lot of us in this world feel a bit #lost right now. It is understandable because of what is happening in #ukraine and #russia at the moment. It is also #difficult to deal with #MentalHealth at the same time when you have a #MentalIllness that does not ever take a break. #Medicine can only take you so far in this world to make things #stabilized in the mind.

When #stressful situations occur, it is more difficult for those who have mental health conditions to handle than that of someone who does not have it. It is because we are already battling a mental war trying to use our #Therapy skills to apply to the #behavioral aspect of things while the medication helps take care of the #Neurological aspect of things. However, on the right kind of #Medication we are able to handle things a lot better. Of course we will always have some kind of #Sadness in our lives, as it is not the #Goal of medication to make us #robotic . However, the medicine we take does help to ease the existing conditions we already have so that we are less #sensitive to the #Extremes we would feel without the medicine.

I have #BipolarDisorder so this is something that is already a #Battle since I was about 16 years old. Sometimes all I can do is put on some lipstick and handle it the best way that I can, even if that means I need to take a few extra #Naps in the day. Whenever you are faced with #extreme amounts of #Stress things are not going to be easy for you. That is #normal . I just #wish that life were a lot #easier to handle though for those of us who have pre-existing mental health conditions that create more conflict and blow up the #emotional responses.

So - If you are #Reading this, please #DistractMe and give me something to think about other than my Dad's liver #Cancer

Good morning all!
The coffee calls to me but apparently it's my anxiety calling to it.

I'm soooooo nervous. Today is my pre op and I have to decide which surgery.
Exploratory for endometriosis, take out my baby making parts, take out my baby making parts WITH my ovaries and all of these do not come with any guarantee that the pain stops accept theblast option since were not sure what causes it for sure. The last option takes away the pain but gives me menopause.. which at 29 isnt something I want. Some in my family has found menopause bad for them.. and that could just be replacing one problem for the next :/ I hope I make the right decision. Wish me luck. 🤞
