Partial Paycheck and maybe dating Melanie

Feeling my usual lousy today. No better no worse. Sometimes I think it would be nice to feel worse, at least it would be a change. Got a partial paycheck today $350 out of my normal $931. I don't know what that's about but I should get the rest of it once my leave bank form is approved. Paid a bunch... Sign in to see full entry.

Trying to exercise and a nice Christmas

I felt REALLY lousy this morning, better now. Tried going to the gym. Did eight minutes onthe rowing machine, then I had to sit on the couch in the lobby for an hour and a half before I had t he strength to go in and shower. I think I'll try exercising in the evening see if that works better.... Sign in to see full entry.

Both Lisas Birthdays

Feeling just weak and tired today. Struggle to get up and get moving. Melanie came over last night. I enjoyed her company. Since I'm not up to going out much these days it helps to have folks come over. Lisa's birthday today. I called and sang Happy Birthday to her answering machine, she's probably...

New phone and more socializing

Rare morning session with my therapist today. Went pretty well. I was feeling relatively good (about a 4 on a scale of 10) but now I've slipped down to about a 3. Got a new phone last night, it's charging as we speak. I got a little stuck setting it up so I had to resort to something... Sign in to see full entry.

Dumb Sitcoms and a day program

Felt lousy earlier but after spending the afternoon watching dumb sitcoms, I feel better now. Guess I needed the rest. Looks like it will be at least another month before I go back to work. Dr took me off prozac and put me on something else, starts with Eff. So she filled out the leave bank form and... Sign in to see full entry.

Broken phone and Drada meeting.

Still feeling lousy. It never seems to change much. See the Doc this afternoon, I think she's going to have to try me on a different medication. Hopefully she will have filled out the leave bank form so I can get paid. Gotta get a new phone, the one I have died. The answering machine still works but... Sign in to see full entry.

Writing one paragraph

Feeling really lousy today. In fact, I'm going home to bed in a few minutes. This is the worst I've felt in weeks. Whenever I think I'm starting to get better, I end up falling backwards again. I think Dr. Ashai is definitely going to have to try me on a new medicine. I see her tomorrow. I know I'm... Sign in to see full entry.

Church was fabulous today, Rev Nancy gave a great talk and I had a lot of nice conversations with people afterwards. Otherwise, I'm still feeling about the same. I'll take the leave bank forms to Dr Ahsai's office tomorrow, so hopefully she can fill it out and get it back to me when I go to my... Sign in to see full entry.

Sounding better and Going to church

Mom says I sound better but I don't really feel better. Maybe sounding better is a prelude to feeling better. Went to church last night, talked to a lot of people, enjoyed myself. I have more fun than any other severely depressed person I know. Went to DA this morning, had a nice chat with Gari. She... Sign in to see full entry.

Depression talks and the beat goes on.

The beat goes on. I continue to feel not much better and not much worse. Dr Ashai I think is going to have to try me on something different. The prozac/wellbrutin combo doesn't seem to be working. Either that or it is working and I'd feel even worse otherwise. Good session with the therapist... Sign in to see full entry.
