Feeling Pooey

I had a good day. Bible study, doc apt, tattoo appt. So I don't know why, but some depression started hitting when I was waiting at the tattoo shop. Just a feeling of not fitting into life, sadness, wanting to cry. And I had just gotten done telling my doc how I felt good today. Weird how fast that changes. I have also noticed that on my lab work, my diagnosis used to read "Bipolar II" and now reads "Bipolar I". Sigh. I don't know. Just feeling crappy. And whiny I guess, lol. And of course I picked up something to drink which is supposed to be a no no. I just try to tell myself I'm doing the best I can. I'm being the best mom I can. The best wife I can. I've resisted more temptations than many other bipolar folk I know. I just feel like that the fact that I'm functioning and participating in society should count for something. That'll have to be good enough for now.
Okay, I don't know what ANY of that had to do with anything, but I hope everyone reading has a good night. I appreciate all you here. You help more than you know. Thanks.

Thank you Lisa!

Hi Audrianna,

Yep, sometimes you're good and then in a split second, those awful feelings just comes right back at us. I have experienced this after therapy as well. Sometimes I use to be very moody.

You are doing a great job so far. Keep on moving forward and using those positive thoughts. It helps. I am glad you didn't let this get you down.
Hang in there!
