Apprehensive as I have a doctor's appointment with a newish doctor who hasn't yet earned my confidence. I'm afraid he is going to tell me my illness is all in my head. Despite being diagnosed over ten years ago. He just seems like that kind of doctor. He is a neurologist. My sister said if he...
@Anrish Thank you for the wonderful support. I did feel vindicated in my therapists office when my therapist looked incredulous at what I told him about my nephew. I'll just have to go on my merry way!
Nervous. Seeing a neurologist a bit sooner because he has a cancellation. So far I do not have a good feeling about him, but he is a specialist in my medical condition. I have to not let him get to me and get my needs met.
Well, my nurse practitioner can not come up with an alternate drug to abilify as a replacement. Abilify is too expensive. She recommended acupuncture. I have body issues so I am not sure how I feel about this. But I am getting frustrated, so I am looking into it. So far my insurance doesn't...
Sane. Talked to my therapist about my nephew and he thinks that my nephew is thin skinned. He thinks it ironic that a guy that owns five guitars should talk about possessions not being important. Yet he prayed for more! I didn't say anything wrong. I feel vindicated.
I realize there is just some people you can't get through to(as in my nephew). I will just have to adjust myself and accept that. I can't let him drag me down.
Joy. Put up my tree today. My seventeen year old son came home early and decorated it with me. I thought he wasn't going to be able. That brought me joy. Of course he put up the ornaments I wasn't going to use if decorating by myself(blue's clues). But that is okay. It is a happy memory for him...
@Anrish I wouldn't like that either!
My nephew insisting that I say everything he says is wrong. I don't. I just differ in opinion on some things. Apparently because I don't necessarily believe like him I am saying he is wrong. I am not. It also makes me sad that he takes me that way. He...
Finally read my nephew's instant message. He still insists that I say everything he says is wrong. I told him that is not true. I just have different views. I told him I will no longer respond to his posts. That it makes me sad. Shed my last tear.
Other than that I feel good. My boys went and...
I bought a Christmas tree. A cute, little one. First one I saw on the lot. Dragged my boys with me since this will be my youngest's last time looking for a tree with me. They were fine about it. They got fudge. :)
Dragged my husband to the Verizon store to get him a new iphone. He needed a bigger screen. He kept putting it off until I figured that it would cost us the same every month to get him a new one. He is very happy with his new toy.
Bought myself a new phone that I was able to customize. Which was awesome. I won't get it till the 21st, but I'll live. lol I think. My current phone cancels messages in mid message or doesn't send them. It is getting on my nerves. The new phone is bigger, but I am overlooking that because I got...
@Anrish not real close. And everyone is now up in the air because my dad is divorcing his wife. So things have been a little tight lately. Just makes me sad to lose a person. He private messaged me recently, but I haven't been up to reading it. You know what I mean?
Frustrated for two reasons. One is because my illness is acting up and there is nothing I can do to alleviate the symptoms, just ride with it. And, two, because I went to the nurse practitioner today to find an alternative to Abilify due to cost, and she prescribed me an alternative that is just...
I realize my nephew may never come around. He barred me from posting on his timeline on facebook. He can't handle my differing opinion and for some reason takes it rather personally. I do not understand why. He is a very messed up kid and he has a family of his own. I feel bad for him.
I waited in the waiting room for almost two hours while my husband had his procedure done. I drove him home and I took my son shopping(something he wanted to do). I'm exhausted but I am glad I did it.
I realize that my nephew is going to take everything I say to heart. He and I disagree on a few Christianity things. He takes it personally if I counter something he says. Just deleted a comment I wrote. I instant messaged him but he didn't reply. I realize that I can not help his actions.
Have to take husband in for a colonoscopy. I will be staying while he has the procedure. He said I could just drop him off and pick him up but that is ludicrous. He always stays with me through my appointments. I will be there.
