I got a few tests done and everything looks normal, but I don't feel normal! I always slip at the same time of the month...I don't know what to do...

I'm praying for you that are having problems right now. Depression sucks. Giving in to your AV sucks. Starting at day 1 again sucks. It all add into how you feel about yourself.
Everyone else I hope is doing well. I had a calm, relaxing weekend. My Mom came out. I always worry when she does. We aren't close and never have been. I have had a lot of issues with her and my Dad and how I was treated and made to feel like neither of them ever wanted me. I am sure it all adds into all the things I feel are wrong in my life, but over the years I have sorted through all the junk they left me with and am learning to cope with it and move on. Although it involved me to every inch of it...it had nothing to do with me. I just got left with all the baggage, lucky me.
Just glad our visit went good. Thank God for my husband, he is my rock.
Hope you all have a good Monday! Be strong. Get back up, start again.

Hey all, Patricia, Retread, hope you feel better today. Wonder what's going on with us? Woke up drenched in sweat and panic, fatigue, headache just like detox again. Might be PAWS, idk. Or I'm coming down with something. I am being vigilant because most of my slips occur early during the work week. Right now the taste of wine seems repellent to me, so that's a good thing.
My friend into astrology says there is something going on with planets affecting certain signs in a big way. I don't know much about that. My cats are really acting up too, and I think 2 more need to go to vet. I have one with a cleft nose and lip, she is prone to sinus problems.
Key, glad your visit with mom went well. Kitty, are you straight back to work after your trip? Bekind, benice, JL, BBG. Kelly, hope you are doing well.

Hi guys, day 3. I'm back to work. Really struggling with jet lag this afternoon. I wish I could bail on work early but doubt I can. I'll make it.
Sorry for others struggling. Take it from me, drinking is not worth it! Stay strong and get through this without booze!

Hey all !
Gotta catch up on posts. Been trying to chill out, had my phone on charge and just left it. Really bothered me having to deal with this past. I don't think my wife's shingles medicine is helping. Don't know for sure, but I bet her nerves don't help. I hear that on depression feelings ! Going and watching drug deals go down and stealing back my own vehicle, has been very surreal in an unpleasant way. Feel kinda crazy. Whew that place and that kind of life seemed so bonkers to me.
Didn't drink anymore, but I'm pretty fizzed out because of stress I guess. In line at elementary school to pick up my 7 yr old.
God I'm glad to live in the mountains. Or at any rate, just away from where I grew up. Seems like a Different planet, it's so bad there.
I'm really sorry that some y'all are feeling bad. I'll read up closer, but know that I'm here with you still

JL, you did great this weekend. Sorry to hear about Wife's shingles. My husband had them, it was so painful. He was on some antiviral and pain meds. You just never imagine younger people getting them. He never ever calls in sick, that was only time I recall he did.
Kitty, boy jet lag sure catches up doesn't it. Take care all

JL, your story about the truck would make a good essay or article if you were in a writing class but it does not sound like fun. Congrats for having the guts to make the changes you have in your life. God bless and keep your truck borrowing friend very, very far from you!
Kitty, thanks for coming back to us and starting again. I hope the jet lag eases soon.
Patricia, I love all the efforts (walks, journaling, getting tested) you are making in the face of the overwhelming anxiety. Don't give up the fight; this week will end.
Key, I love when you said your parents' junk "had nothing to do with me.". It just sucks how much this kind of thing can hurt even when it has nothing to do with you.
Sadie, I both love astrology and don't believe in it at the same time if that is possible. In spite of my disbelief, I love it because it gives us a framework for thinking about reality and many of us need some help dealing with reality.
I'm having a productive day cleaning up the detritus of the weekend and restocking vituals and dry goods for my aging parents. Still feeling ashamed of yesterday's meltdown.
Lovehoops, Clown, dee and everyone else keep to the course, don't give up the fight and be kind always especially to yourselves

Thank you Key! It's good to know we are not alone when we are having a bad day
