Depression. It's a silent killer.

Woke up from the pain this morning around 2:30. Fuck I hope this settles down now that we’re not traveling for a while.

Be safe out there.
Love you.
 
I’m thankful the nights are getting shorter and there’s more sunlight in the days again! Funny old week trying to get my head into gear but I’m stopping fighting it now.

What good is happening in your world?

Driving can’t be easy on your back.

I have a long drive coming up in a few weeks. I love road trips but not a huge fan of what it does to my back.

Hope it feels better for you.

The days are almost equal again and the clocks in the us move forward in just a few weeks. I am really noticing how much more daylight there is.
 
Whew. What a week. Travel and emotional roller coaster ride all mixed up with just a touch of mental spiraling.
I’m doing ok though. I’m doing the dark work and boring into my past traumas. Comforting all those girls and women that were me. It’s exhausting but I feel better.

Be safe out there.
Love you.
 
How is everyone doing today? I have my new SAD lamp from Amazon ready! I cannot use it now, though, since I didn’t sleep enough last night and now I’m going to try to nap before I go to my parrotsitting job again.

Doing good mostly. Enjoy your nap.
 
The pain has been lessening for the last couple days. I’m down to a six getting out of bed this morning. I hope I’ve finally found the right combination that lets me get some sleep but doesn’t leave me wanting to scream when I get up in the morning.
I hope you’re having the best day you can.
Be safe out there.
Love you.

Glad it’s lessening but a 6 is still pretty bad, kitty.

Hope it’s less than that today.

Does stretching help at all?

Thank you for your caring words.

Stretching helps a little as does walking. I pace in the morning until the pain is manageable. Motion is Lotion as a friend once told me.
 
Monday again. To everyone that has to slog, thank you. You’re the ones that keep everything afloat.

Hope your day goes smoothly.

Be safe out there.
Love you.
 
Physical pain back up to a seven today. Just when I think I’ve got it figured out I aggravate it again. Ugh.

Be safe out there.
Love you.
 
The days are blending into each other. It just shows that the demons follow you no matter where you go. Even to the beach.

Be safe out there.
Love you.
 
Has your back pain lessened over the week?
Also, have you had the MRI done?

Yes, I still read this forum. 🙂
MRI is scheduled for early next month. The pain depends on the amount of movement and the amount of lying down. If I’m constantly moving the pain is manageable but a body has to sleep sometimes. It’s the morning pain that’s the worst. It was a 9 this morning and moving around in that much pain is exhausting making me want to lie down. Lol.
 
Being at the beach is one of my favorite things.
I hope your day goes smoothly.
Be safe out there.
Love you.
 
You have no idea what the fuck you are talking about.
Unless you've been there you have no fucking idea, and to post on a forum with complete idiocy is not just being ignorant but dangerous to certain people. Apologize and SHUT UP!!

That post was in ‘19. A few years before I took it over.
Thank you for supporting learning about depression.
