PessimOptimist Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Well a bit of good news I suppose making me feel a little better. Doc office just called and scheduled me for appointment with pain specialist and surgeon to go over the plan for pain block and anti-inflammatory injection for my lower back. As I currently sit in pain, I think this actually sounds good! Although it won't be until next Tuesday...which kinda sucks. Oh well, put up with it this long, another couple weeks won't make any difference really. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cupcake_girl Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Sick.. It took me 3 painkillers to get through my work day. I should have stayed in bed but I'm too scared to actually call in sick.I feel ya Cupcake, unfortunately. Wish I'd brought my painkillers to work today. So sorry to hear that. Maybe you can ask a co-worker or your boss for painkillers? Usually they have. Anyways hold on and wishing you well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freckledface Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 (edited) Pess - you haven't lost your sense of humour, my friend. I LMAO at your post!!! Hope U feel better!!! Brian, I was out to lunch with my mom and while she was away from the table I decided to check my email. I follow this thread so I get email notifications when someone posts...needless to say, I was sitting at the table alone and LOL'ed a little too loudly when I read Pess's post. I just smiled big when I realized people were looking at me. Edited September 9, 2015 by freckledface 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD4010 Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 JD - my morning was lousier :) I have to go out to a meeting then a shrink appointment. The way things are going, I am expecting the worst. It's irrational, but it just feels like one of those days. Bwahahaha! I will cede that your morning was lousier. I'm through with meeting #3 for the day; hopefully the last one. I just dodged having to attend a night meeting so I'm feeling relieved. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD4010 Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Calisouther, there are several of us "old timers" who are (recently) single on this forum. I'm 55 and have dealt with depression most of my life, too. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD4010 Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Is it good to be alive? Being alive is a huge struggle.... I don't like it. It's always a struggle. That reminds me...I was talking to my best friend last night. I mentioned that the next person who says to me, "turn every challenge into an opportunity" is going to get a sock in the eye. Yeah, I see my kidney tumor as a wonderful opportunity, you dumb @ss. Sorry I blew up. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salparadise6132 Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Well, a bit freaked out. I am angling to get my company to find alternative work for me because I just can't work for my boss anymore. I am afraid I am going to come out on the losing end of this one - pay cut, or forced to quit or something weird like that. Scared, I guess. Meeting with HR next week! 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeBlanc Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 (edited) As a follow up to my previous post I'm still distraught over the termite incident in my damn window. The apartment manager says its likely termites when my sister gave her a dead 'bug' sample and she's trying to get a pest control to come out soon. The last thing I needed was termites attacking my room. It's incredibly frustrating and I can't even sleep in my own damn room. I cleaned my entire room yesterday and my body is sore. To add to the stress it's been super hot and now there's an apartment inspection through out all buildings tomorrow. This month has totally sucked and I'm already done dealing with it.

roadking02 Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Will be redoing my bedroom over the next week or so. First before I get anything I'll be cleaning and moving everything around in the room. Problem is actually getting myself to do it. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sun is out it's a beautiful day!As though it's a choice!! GRRRR. Yep, I chose this... my brain has an imbalance but somehow I chose depression over happiness.

highanxiety Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Kind of in the middle of an isolation type thing. More by my choice so I can seriously work on my writing. Actually I kind of like it. I seem to be more stress free. I don't want to isolate very long. Still run errands, go to appointments and stuff, just not a lot of one on one interaction with friends. Two of my closer friends call almost every day. Not to check in on me, but to vent and, I love these guys, but the drama seems so insignificant. Sometimes I don't answer the phone if they come on caller ID because I don't go over the same thing again. I give them suggestions, but they are left unheard in the long run, so I just pivot our conversations now when the subject comes up to another. Am I being selfish? I really need some coping skills in dealing with this, and so many subjects. Just hope to receive a call from my new therapist for an appointment. That is, if I passed the intake. On the plus side the weather here in the Northwest is beautiful today. And I am very blessed living where I do in a spacious apartment, but most importantly, a million dollar view of the water, islands, and mountains as a backdrop. Sunsets are amazing. In fact last night the Northern Lights appeared. Sorry I missed it, but they showed photos on the news. So beautiful. Having this view really helps me to realize there is a beautiful world out there. Now I just need to get out in it and enjoy it. Hopefully. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
