1 = Depressed - need my friends

2 = Depressed and I can tell it is going to hang around awhile

3 = Depressed - but my favorite ______ < insert word could cheer me up

4 = partly cloudy, moving but not motivated, functioning

5 = fine, functional, steady, stable, working list

6 = looking forward to the day, sunny, energized

7 = feeling great, looking FANTASTIC, couldn't be better

8 = up since 4 am cleaning, rearranged the living room, wrote the president, had sex twice

9= can't stop thinking, why are all these other people so slow and stupid, time is short possibilities unlimited, I need to write that down perhaps start a novel, get out of my way

10 = the television told me I was sent by God direct to save the world so I gave away all my worldly possessions and am walking the universe ridding it from evil as I find it...and it is everywhere

Good Saturday Morning friends! It is very hot and dry here! I am feeling about a 5/6 today. I am very embarrassed and ashamed of some of the impulsive negative pieces of content I have shared on here lately. I had been having female problems and was taking a high dosage of hormones that triggered one of my worst episodes. I am now off the hormones and my hemoglobin is at 8.9 and climbing. I am still working to connect with a pdo in my new city to get re established on my meds.

I love you all!

Also, I type these words very lightly as I don't know of another resource to go to. If there is a mature christian that feels comfortable emough messaging with me to help me get some clarifiation on a few things, I would greatly appreciate it.

MDJunction is not associated with any religion besides People Helping People. This is just a personal request.

Thank you

6 although I feel tired physically, my mood is different. If I could not be so tired and my energy matched my mood I would be outside working in the yard.

New meds lol

"Your world full of creeps
Zombies walk the street
9 to 5 barely alive
Have a beer go to sleep
And start all over again

Same gray suit
Same brown shoes
Same headache
Same pills
He goes home thinks about (edit pert T&C)how bad his life is.
But hes got his diploma
Got to give him that

I got a radical place
Got my own private space
It's my sanctuary
It's the castle of doom
I'm the king of my room
Just a Quasimodo
Let the world blow away
This is where I will stay
In my sanctuary
Got my mess on the floor
Got my lock on my door

Go Away
Sanctuary
Go Away
Sanctuary

Someday I gotta get outta here
Gotta put on a shirt put on a tie
Get a job buy a car get some insurance
Cuz I'll probably have a heart attack
Before I'm 40

I guess I'll find the perfect wife
And I'll have 2.3 perfect kids
And if I work real hard
And die real fast
They'll all turn out just like me"

5 today. Slept well until about 5 this morning.
* When nothing goes right...go left
* Attach your own oxygen mask before assisting others
* Women are not that complicated. How hard is it to tell us
we are pretty and give us chocolate?
* Be kinder than necessary, for everyone is fighting their own battle.
* Worrying doesn't empty tomorrow of its troubles. It empties today of its strength.

150mg Wellbutrin
75mg Topamax
1 mg clonasapam
