Light at the end.....
Well things are going ok atm, after a potentially bad start.
My boss bought me some vitamins and some fish oil becaase the omega 3 is supposed to help mood and brain function. They may or may not be helping.
My test results came back fine, no underlying thyroid issues, nor am I anaemic (i have no idea where i get my iron from, i don't eat red meat often).
It was decided that I would try an on-line programm of CBT by a university psych department, before trying meds or face to face sessions.
I haven't done too much of the programme as yet, and I am sporadic in my taking of the vitamins, but i have felt alot better lately. My functionality is not the best (but then again it never really was), but my mood has greatly improved. In fact i was bit worried about mania there for a while... But i have had a few unpleasant plunges as well, just to balance things out....
I still have my moments, and I don't think it will ever be plain sailing for me.
I have been trying to only take one day at a time, instead of trying to fix my whole life and my future.
Work has been better, I still hate going, but once I'm there it's ok. Some shit at work has settled which has lessened the stress I was getting.
I am however very spacey. My brain function isn't great. I forget what was saying mid sentence, and I can't spell nor think of the names of obvious things. 'Tis all quite cloudy in my brain.....*sniggers* And I enrolled in nanowrimo..... *rolls eyes*
I have finished the ceramic short course I was doing, last class earlier this week. I did enjoy getting back into it. I did some cool stuff, and I want to get back into it now. I would love to exhibit again. I have already got some ideas for bodies of work. I wonder how I will get it all done, and get access to kilns etc, but i can't let that worry me. I must revel in my current acheivements, and bathe in the compliments from others for a while....
The siamese fighting fish died.
Hetty, the baby black flying fox, is doing ok, though not really thriving. She hasn't been putting in very much weight, and is still quite immature in terms of social, behavioural development.
Well since I only just enrolled in nanowrimo, and am therefore quite behind, I really should get off this and start writing. I decided to jump in and enroll. I heard about it last year, but november is exam month, so I couldn't do it, but this year i am not studying atm, so...... no excuses really. It does now seem more daunting though. I have a house inspection next week, and I haven't cleaned in so long, plus working 40hours a week, cooking, cleaning, feeding the cat and the fish, reading, sleeping (so important), seeing friend who is moving o's soon, keeping sane.... Oh plus the U2 concert on tuesday! Keep forgetting that...... have to figure out how to get there...... then I'll be tired all week.
Oh well. we'll see how goes.....

Vitamins are good. Well, alright, they don't fix everything, but if your body has the best possible nutrition it's got a better chance of making itself work right.
Poor little fishy.
Glad the little bat is doing okay. Do you think she will be able to be released one day, even though she hasn't had the normal bat socialisation? I like bats. Well, actually I feel gently positive toward bats; and I really like flying foxes.
What do I keep doing wrong here to lose my posts?
I'm sure I posted something in here the day this post was posted.
Phooey.
Anyway, what I think I said was hope you are getting back to normal, and I hope you enjoy the concert.
Since my comment was et...and I spoke to you this morning (for me) I'm glad you enjoyed the concert.
Now look. I've confused myself.
