My Mental Health Journey

  • Feeling Better Today

    I’m feeling a lot better physically today. I know what caused the migraine I had yesterday or at least I am fairly certain. I forgot to take my morning antidepressant. This time I remembered and took it as soon as my phone reminded me; no hemming and hawing.

    This weekend is going to be a long one as I will be putting in 24 total hours of work. I’ve got 8 hours of work on Saturday and a double shift on Sunday. I don’t know why I agreed to do this but I did. I guess because I gave my notice and want to leave on good terms. I’m hoping that I will but one never knows anymore.

    Today I have to make a Walmart order. I hate doing business with that company but affordability reigns supreme at the moment. At least I use Walmart+ so I get everything delivered and do not have to walk into the store anymore. That’s kind of nice. Going to the grocery store is sensory overload for me and always has been. I hate it.

    I am thinking of going to the library in downtown Wilmington today just to get out of the house for a bit. I have some books to return anyways so I might as well get that done. I love libraries. They’re almost like the last bastion of free thought and information in the US. You’re free to just be in the library without the expectation of spending money.

    I still didn’t sleep so well last night because I was hot and had really weird and vivid dreams. At least they weren’t nightmares. So, I’ll take that as a win. Now I’m going to nap for a bit.
