Do you have anything planned for this week? Fun things to distract yourself?

I am off work now for a bit so I have to ensure I spend my time wisely. I'm gunna go for walks daily (hopefully) and get some counseling set up maybe within the next couple weeks. I have a couple online courses I am going to sign up for as well.

I'm going to ensure that what my mom said about me just using this time to sit around and read my books doesn't happen ... although I am definitely making time to read!! LoL

I was hoping to just invest my time in work, writing and learning Spanish more but... I got sick, so I'll probably be off work for a few days. I wonder how many. Tomorrow I'll find out, I have a doctor's appointment in the morning.
I'll probably read and try writing and maybe just learning Spanish with that online course. I couldn't find time to learn lately, besides two language teaching apps.

I don't know what your mom's complaining about, reading ain't a bad thing XD

I hope you find some time to learn Spanish, Mem

So, I am weaning off anti-depressant medication that I have been taking for over 10 years. I am trying to quit smoking cigarettes, which I have done for over 10 years. Everything is making me angry or sad, and today I lost my mind a bit, did a lot of yelling and crying.

Jay of course is very supportive - then there's my mom who tells me that weaning off my medication and stopping smoking is just an "excuse" for me to be a bitch, essentially. She has never truly believed that my issues with mental illness were anything more than me not being willing to control my emotions. I know she is old and set in her ways, but I don't know how to deal with her right now while dealing with all the other issues causing me anxiety.

Gotta set up that counseling appointment soon, I think.

Didn't learn much because sickness is blah

yesterday i was mostly writing but today I was mostly reading XD

I'm sorry your mom isn't very supportive, that sucks. Actually she's the one being a B, but okay XD

Do you think quitting smoking and weaning off meds at the same time makes you more irritable and emotional than necessary? Maybe one thing at the time would be better? I don't know much about this stuff.

It might be better to do one at a time but right now for health reasons I have to do both...

Either way, today was much better and I am trying some new things to improve my moods like switching up my diet - I am making smoothies every day now for the past week with this new adorable mini blender that I got.

I put in kale, spinach, fresh and frozen fruit, yogurt and orange juice and blend it all together. It's really good, and I am hoping it helps with my mental well-being. Also trying to eat healthier in general to see if that works. Added in some daily vitamins to my meds as well.

Are you feeling any better, sickness wise?

That makes sense. So many changes at once tho XD i'd go nuts, o usually have to do things step by step. I'm glad you're doing so well :)

I'm feeling better, although not completely healthy. I'd rather not go back to work on Monday but I don't have a choice. Also Ash got sick from me

And my sister flew from London with her husband and things are awkward.

It was a many-years argument let's say and no one apologized. Although I guess you could say I managed to patch things up last night. Me, mom, grandma and my sister got to talk about the elephant in the room and I think I made things better. I mean, I squeezed out apologies from my sister and I apologized to her (mom and granny also did, but I don't think they should have). So I'll see how things go from now on.

I got news from Ash.
In a nutshell: He thinks he wants to be with me. He doesn't want to live separately. He has some kind of phobia about engagement and marriage because he watched his mom be married thrice and his step-dad the same and "he knows what happens after putting rings on fingers" so... I cried for an hour at night and was mumbling gibberish. I think I got histeria last night or something like that. Anyways, I sent him to therapy. Let's hope he starts his search today.

I feel like shit, sorry. I might be out for a few days. Or just lurking. Idk yet.

Mem, I'm glad you are getting somewhere with the whole sister thing, I hope it all works out

I don't like the fact that he says he "thinks" he wants to be with you ... that's not fair to you. I hear his argument about marriage and divorce. That's actually my fella's main issue with marriage, however we've now discussed it several times and he agrees we will be married someday, and I told him if he or I ever wants a divorce I'll just kill him so it won't ever end that way LoL.

I hope therapy helps him work out his issues surrounding marriage. Just because his parents screwed up and married the wrong people doesn't mean he will do the same. Like I told my guy a long time ago, have we not learned from the mistakes and dumb shit our parents did that led to their divorces? We know what NOT to do because of their crappy example. We are NOT them.

Sending you big virtual hugs and you take all the time you need.
