Thanks so much for the encouragement. It is very much needed right now.

Defensive Irritable Hypomanic Depressed Annoyed Tired Loved Appreciated Needed Weary

I have managed to do all of this and exercise regularly, except for the caffeine part. I still have 2 cups of coffee daily. I am a big Daniel Amen fan and I absolutely trust what he says about caffeine and pretty much everything, but I haven't reached all of my goals, yet. I am also gluten and...

4 Enchiladas and French fries with Lemon Zinger tea. Today was just that kind of party.

You're right. I need to look into ED. I've had a lot of physicals since I had my original schizoaffective dx at 21, but I don't think I have been checked for that and even my last therapist told me to get checked. Thank you.

Damn it, I am trying. I got back on 300 mgs of Lithium twice a day, but the pills are not extended-release, so mornings and late afternoons, I am right back where I was. I have another appointment in the morning with primary care and am hoping to get some extended-release tablets. In the...

I have never had a service dog, so please understand if I am no help, at all. It sounds to me that some of what you are going through is a bit of grief, realizing that your dog isn't always going to be there for you. I imagine this is part of why reaching out to friends is helping. I'm not...

You're damned right you are. I've never even had a chicken leek pie. There you are getting them delivered and cheesy bread right after, too. 🤣

That's great. I am glad that you are getting that. Does your mum come by every day? And bring food? I admit that I am a little jealous.

I hope so, too. It really sucks when you are looking for help and you get extra stress, instead. I've been through that a lot, lately.
