About a 22 right now on that scale of 100. I was up to about a 51 this morning cause I slept real well but it didn't last. Good session with my therapist today. I told him that I was going to find a way to make writing greeting cards my main job. I make take a regular part time job to insure a... Sign in to see full entry.

Writing well, not getting paid and a great support group meeting.
About a 33 on that scale of 100 today. I should say 33 right now. It changes from hour to hour sometimes minute to minute. I was looking over the cards I wrote Monday and they were great. Maybe I'll post one under Jeff's Write Stuff. It amazes me that I can still write well when I feel this crappy.... Sign in to see full entry.

Getting a clearer picture
I feel a little better today about a 41 on the scale of 100. Hard to tell whether the new medicine is working or if I'm just having a relatively good day. It's sunny and not too cold today so that helps. I'm beginning to get a clearer picture of what may happen when I get well. I think I'll continue... Sign in to see full entry.

Being a mental health consumer
About a 29 on a scale of 100 today. Had dinner with Melanie last night. Had a pretty good time but there's not a whole lot of romantic chemistry there. Lunch with Mom today. She's after me to get my teeth cleaned, which I do need done, but I'm not up to dealing with it right now. Supposed to go to... Sign in to see full entry.

Don't feel like writing much
Not too good today about a 21. I'm amazed I even made it to DA. Told Debbie she looked nice. She said it was "too much" but thanked me. I can tell she's not real comfortable with compliments but she's trying to get better. No response from Bernice so far. I don't care much either way really. I left... Sign in to see full entry.

Sleeping all day and answering Bernice's Ad
Planned on getting a lot done today but ended up sleeping most of the day. After hearing from L I realized why. She takes her geodone at night. I took it this morning because Dr Ashai said it was a stimulant. Now I know to take it at night. The situation about returning to work is confusing. I won't... Sign in to see full entry.

Shock Treatment?
Shock Treatment. That's what Dr Ashai says the next step is if the new medication doesn't work. It seems to me there are several other medications we could try but I suppose she has a reason for not trying them. If it gets to that point I'll ask her. The thing about shock treatment I understand is... Sign in to see full entry.

Interesting Valentine's Day and "Effective" medicine.
Hmm let's see about a 34 right now on the scale of 100. Felt a little better earlier. More interesting Valentine's Day than anticipated. Lisa called and we went out to dinner. Seems she has a new man in her life. He wants to date her, she just wants to be friends according to her. Sounds like she's... Sign in to see full entry.

Nervous Nellie and Cancelled Meeting
A little better today than yesterday 'bout a 27. The weather is a little warmer which helps. Drada meeting canceled tonight due to possible icy roads. Makes sense that's a long and winding road to get to that place. I'll miss being at the meeting but it gives me time to do other things. Still... Sign in to see full entry.

Olympics, snow and back pay.
Really lousy today about a 16 on the scale of 100. It took me over an hour to get the snow off my car. If I had been well it would have taken 10 minutes. I had to sweep a little snow off, rest, sweep a little snow off, rest, you get the idea. Talked to payroll today and they said my missing... Sign in to see full entry.
