I'm also tired because I've had a long and busy day but hey it's great to be tired because I have been productive as opposed to tired because all I've done is drink all day, am shaky and can't sleep cos I'm so full of alcohol!

Also... *sigh* My feelings have ALWAYS been all over the map, changing constantly throughout the day at a dizzying rate; this harks back to my childhood. I was screened for bipolar on a few occasions, but the consensus is that I'm simply a "highly emotional person". That's fine but, being booze-free and tapering off benzos, I'm having a hard time readjusting to the barrage of emotions: sure enough, my wacky feelings are still alive. Oh well, I'm relieved and grateful - I was very scared, I thought I'd become a barren zombie with no emotions.
Rant over.

This morning I'm feeling... weird. Distanced from myself. Tainted. Like I'm crawling out of my skin, dislocated from my body. It might be my Other Self's reaction to my emotional growth and development over the past few days - it threatens her.
Sunday is also my prime dissociation day, unfortunately. I get 'fuzzy' and like I'm stuffed around with cotton wool. I don't want to 'go there'. But.

Need to just give it time, I guess. For now I am mostly a nervous ball of fragmented energy.

I am feeling guilty this morning, and I deserve to feel guilty. Bk called me a bit ago asking for a ride home from the churchhouse where the YOuth Group had their annual overnight. I'd just woken up and hadn't had my coffee yet or let the dogs out and told her I couldn't take her home and she'd have to find a ride with someone there.
I tried to call her back but got no answer from the cell number or the churchhouse number. Now I feel like dirt for being so selfish.

I need help... Can anyone on here help me?I am a 27 yr old single, military mother. I have destroyed my life! I have always gotten really bad migraines, and on one specific day a special person in my life gave me a percocet to help me. At the time I had no idea what it was but it helped and took them away. I loved the feeling so much I started buying them from people, but then I left for military training and I was off until 4 months into training when I rolled my ankle. The Drs gave me percocet, and then I graduated and came home. I was addicted all over again, and I still am. I hate it so much! I use to work fulltime and go to college fulltime and have a great relationship with my daughter. I also kept up with my house and managed to have alittle fun and help people. Now I am useless! No job, no money, no school, and i'm pushing my little girl away! I know I need help, but my partner is negative with that idea. She is also addicted and has been since before we started dating which was over 4 yrs ago! I am so depressed, I hate my life! I have even ruined my dreams and goals with some of the things that I have done since getting addicted to this ****! What do I do? Where do I go for help? Keep in mind I have no medical insurance... Please if you can help me please HELP!!
