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

6/7 ~ Feeling good. I still need to go to sleep but I had a really great day and am grateful for it. I only hope tomorrow will be as good.

Good Morning all! Happy 4th! I am a 5/6/7. I have been emotionally lately and I have cried a couple times over the last few days. This is a huge sign of progress for me because for many years I could never feel the emotion to cry. Other things are improving to. I am starting to be able to watch movies without dissociation.

Anyways, hope we all have a great day! Love you all!

3 for today. Good that I get to go to my son's 17th birthday party but not so good that I have to see my parents who I'm not crazy about and really not good that the party is at my in-laws - that would be the parents of my legally separated wife. Good to see both of my kids but people there could be really bad.
