Not great... quite outta shape physically. Not particularly happy, generally. I feel like ah've failed in life in many ways. :sad:
And I regret that I didn't apply for a house sooner, should've really done that by the end of 2016.

You want to know how I got these scars?
Been sick twice in the last 2 weeks, then got a stye in my eye and its scratched my eye, really painful. Now thats settling down I've woken up with back pain this morning , the pain is in my glutes and is shooting down the back of my legs . Not sure why. Maybe I should stop doing acrobatical backflips every morning...

Also feeling flat emotionally and I have an 8 hour work day ahead of me.
Apart from that.... I'm great.

^ I’ve been dwelling on this myself, lately. Probably a bit too much in fact... :sad:

Though I think my unhappiness mainly steams from not really having that sense family, never feeling as though I belonged. Supposed that to expected when yer ain family bullies ye frequently? :sad:

At best, my attention could be diverted away from my otherwise ever-present anxieties & problems. At worst i'd be "all-consumed" by negatives, for hours at a time.

Feeling anxious today. That's nothing new. I actually have a few real things to be anxious about right now, though.

Also feeling a bit down on myself. Things I've been resolving to do, really this time I mean it really I do, I'm not doing.

Ah think ah might take up alcoholism as my new hobby. :sad:

I'm utterly f*ckin' miserable, but I'm forever being telt that how ah feel isn't valid. :crying: And that I ..."shouldnae feel that way" or "or don't actually mean that" :thumbdown: "Whit huv you got to be depressed about?" Well, live my life for a day and ya might come up with a couple reasons. Despite the common assumption by some, disabled folk aren't living a feckin' life of luxury.

On top o' aw that ah've got mair responsibility to take on board, cuz my mother is still refusing to change her ways. She's great at saying that, but never actually does it. Me and my oldest sister are "just nagging" whenever we point out how much per week our mother is wasting on groceries that end up having to be thrown out. :kickingmyself:

As if trying to care for myself wasn't hard enough already...
 
I'm feeling really frustrated. I just can't be positive lately - my energy sucks.

I hate being the ugly gross girl at the gym who is red faced and dripping sweat when I am surrounded by attractive guys who would never even consider me. They're all too busy looking at those pretty girls who show up in a full face of makeup, life weights for 15 minutes and are somehow in much better shape than me.

I can't just respect myself for taking the 2 buses it takes to get there and showing up in the first place. No, I have to hate myself for not being perfect. Ugh.

I'm sorry you're feeing under the weather, Pug.
For your recurring sickness (A cold, I'm guessing?), I would recommend zinc. It will reduce your sick time by quite a bit.

For your stye, I would suggest applying warm compresses a few times daily.

Now for your back, have you been stretching? Don't push yourself too much, but a good stretch would be a cat cow pose stretch. Maybe while your head is down in that position you could gently move it in circles, too.

I hope this helps :)
 
I hate my life.
Do you feel guilty for not being able to make your life a good one? I do.

I hate ME.

If I did not develop SP, I could have done all sorts of things with my life to make it a fairly good one.
In the beginning I was headed towards a "normal" life.
Everyday I wonder what life I would be living today, if only my "train" wasn't pushed off the tracks and crashed, damaged beyond repair. :sad:

Nowt goes right for me... Something always has to go wrong. :kickingmyself:

And my family think I’ve got an easy life ? Ha! I beg tae f*ckin’ differ on that yin. Cuz it sure ain’t easy having fix a problem that someone else in yer family has created by not being honest with ye. But then me - the quiet, shy, timid, freckle-faced fanny. It’s me who frequently flees off the handle and throws a hissy fit when the slightest thing goes wrong? :thinking: No, wait... that’s my older sister. :bigsmile:

Still, it’d be nice to telt things upfront - just once if nothing else. Rather than make me feel like an absolute eejit for wrongful assuming that ah wus doing the right thing. :thumbdown:
