How are you feeling?

I knew garlic can be quite the kicker for colds and such, but I didn't realize you could just straight up take them whole like that lol. I'm finally getting over this cold, but I ended up taking some echinacea tablets the last couple days which helped. Definitely gonna remember the garlic thing though, thanks!

garlic is wonderful for colds and echinacea is too but I didn't mention it since many people wouldn't believe in echinacea. turmeric is also good, it's also an anti-inflammatory

aw, I'm glad your mom is ok!

I'm feeling bored. No friends to talk to so far. I went out last week and then I wasn't feeling well. Now I have another appointment coming up and I don't want to be late for it. Hopefully I will be feeling ok so I can go to my walk this week since last week wasn't good for me. I miss it.

Hope your feeling better and that weren't late for your appointment!

thanks, I wasn't late for my appointment, that went well. I'm proud of myself. I am looking fwd to the walk tomorrow and stuff

Oh, okay. I hope you feel better soon, nonetheless.

thanks, the thing I didn't want to start talking about was about my medication issues but I am going to be off a quarter of one of my medications soon, thankfully

I am on a up swing in my mood. I bought the sports game for the switch so that is bringing me some joy and something to look forward. I have weekend plans...group camping.. we will see how that turns out. Work is going better. Not taking things so personal. Know and accepting what will continue to happen while doing my best is the best I can ask for.

That's nice to hear 🙂

You can walk around for miles, but if you don't have any particular goal, you're not making any progress. Such is my life.

Did anybody else not have any dreams or ambitions growing up?

I just wanted to play and have fun when growing up but after I did have hobbies I liked

I'm doing pretty well. I prayed to God. I reduced the benzo I'm taking of 1mg to 0.875mg and by next year I will be done with it so I'm so happy about that for myself and will be very proud of myself for it.

Overwhelmed. I want to crawl in a hole and sleep until Saturday. I've had a crazy week already. And since going to the dentist yesterday I've been feeling extra sensitive. It was just the usual cleaning, but it always leaves me feeling super sensitive. Having them poke and prod around in your mouth for an hour, so many tools, so many different feelings. Ugh, I've had tension headaches all week, but yesterday just made them worse and they're still continuing this morning.

Only three more days of crazy busy, then I'm going away for the weekend on a trip. It's been 2 1/2 years since I've been anywhere new, I'm really looking forward to it.

I overslept for my walk today and feel like crap for it. I have one more time to go for it this week and I won't miss it! I will be doing the laundry tomorrow and eating good/tasty stuff tomorrow. Then on the weekend I'm going to celebrate Father's day and go out with family, yay! 🙂

Where to? Post some pics 🌚! It feels great being able to disconnect form everything and taking some time for yourself.

I hope you enjoy it a lot ❤️!!

Taking a lovely trip to the Catskills for the first time. It's roughly a 3 hr drive across the state from where I currently live. I'll definitely take plenty of pictures. 😁

Grumpy, grumpy, grumpy. It's been hot for three days straight and no rain. My internet has also cut out twice this morning, probably because of said heat. I finally have a day off after working 7 days straight with a 12-hr shift in between all that, but I have a lot to finish up today around the house before I leave tomorrow. The tension headaches have been brutal this week because of everything. Ugh, I just want to sleep. 😫

Ah don't know how am feeling, really. Well, aside from being absolutely roasting due to the hot weather of late, I'd probably say I'm feeling kinda all over the place in terms of my thoughts. Uncertain. Unsure o' myself. And given a more recent development as of today, this afternoon: apprehensive and nervous. Why? Well... no tae give too much away, ah might be doing something next year - next summer to be exact - that's really going to put me way outta my comfort zone. Assuming ah managed to get everything worked in time.

And ah know, it's always good to challenge yer anxiety, exposure therapy n' aw that. But my internal monologue is currently wondering just what in the hell I've been talked into doing. 😧 Not that am upset or anything, ah just cannae quite believe that I've agreed to summit withoot so much as a 2nd thought or taking time to think things over. Anyway, I'll go into more detail once I've mentally processed things and calmed doon a bit.

Other than that: I've started working out again, just a wee bit. But it's a start on one of my goals, at least. 😁

Interested in your goal comment. Do you set your own goals or does somebody else

Oh, I set my own goals. And getting myself back into shape was one of them because I've kinda neglected my physical health a bit in the last few years. Though, the thing for next summer wasn't a goal I'd originally had in mind at all. My oldest sister made the suggestion to me, and I jokingly agreed to it, thinking she wasn't being serious. 🤦‍♂️😆

Quite chuffed, actually. My brother-in-law helped me in assembling a couple of kallax units today. Must've got them done in less than an hour. Though, I wasn't really keeping track o' time. But we got them assembled together quickly, anyway. So, that's me now got more storage space for my clothes, DVDs, and whatever else I still have laying about. And I've got somewhere to put my printer - no need to go back and forth when I need to print something.

Also, I'm not as nervous as I should be. Y'know, considering that yesterday, - not long before I posted in this thread - while out for a car ride around town, my oldest sister gave me a challenge that: in a year's time - August 2023 - I've to go busking on the streets of Edinburgh during that year's International Fringe Festival. Just me, my electric guitar, and an amplifier. And I - before I could even give my anxiety a chance to kick in and answer for me - feckin' agreed to it. 😦😲😵

Meh. Pissy mood. Had a fun weekend, but now have another busy work week ahead of me. It's like the days off actually spent with friends and family is just a quick distraction from my life of being a hamster on a wheel that doesn't quit. 🙄 God I'm so tired of it.
