Depression Understood Forums

Hey everyone! I just wanted to let you know I'm feeling a little odd. I don't know what I will do about it yet...

If you don't see me on here for a little bit, I am taking a break. I'll probably still be on here any way, though.

Pardon me if I'm a little slow with my posts. I'm just feeling a little beat/tired/strange right now. Maybe after a nap or something, I'll be okay.

I did break yesterday, so that may have something to do with it. I do feel a little overwhelmed. There's a lot I need to do & don't seem to have the energy to do anything about it/keep up with all of it/do it fast enough.

I have been goin' good, pushing & challenging myself, but I'm fizzling. It's time for me to revive/rejuvenate myself, but I don't quite know how to do it right now... I might make some 'comfort' iced tea/take some of that electrolyte drink that's in the cupboard....

It would've been nice, if I could have had someone I could turn to where I live, but oh well... Sometimes, it would've been nice to have someone who would not mind taking care of me for a little bit (e.g. They wouldn't mind making me some tea & I think for me to be saying this shows how disturbingly low of a place I'm in at the moment.)

Well... I will do my best....

hey c rest a while people will be here when your ready ,stay well ,see you soon xn728 ,,,ken ,maybe im lost ,but dont need finding ,,,,,easy now

Ken, are you okay? Did something happen? Your words are making me wonder...

self destruct ,i was just laying a path down just in case ,didnt want to upset anyone sorry xn728 ken

(((((Ken)))) Okay. I was just checking. I'm feeling just a little better, but I'll just keep monitoring myself....

We will make it.

I hope you are both feeling better soon.
Crystal, are you really in the Virgin Islands?
Can you go for a walk on the beach?
If I was near I would make you some tea.

A walk on the beach might not be such a bad idea.... Why didn't I think of that?! Wow! I think I might have been here too long that I pretty much almost forgot all about the beach....

(I need to be an outdoors person more & go grab a decent bathing suit.... Hhmm.... I don't remember the last time I wore one.... Oh my!)

& Blue, yes I really am in the US Virgin Islands. I was born there & lived there for most of my life. ~whisper~ I love that I don't have to wear winter clothes.... Oh, those clunky down coats...

& ((((((blueisgreen))))) Thanks for the gesture. T.T It made my day. Thank you!

Edit: I have a sore throat now, so I guess that explains why I wasn't feeling so great.... Well, I'm off to make that tea....

I would certainly make you a cup of tea and care for you if I was there. I hope that cup of tea soothed you and that today finds you feeling a bit better. Oh, the winter coats are being dragged out here now. I am so envious of you never having to don one at all. It must be heaven.

I made the tea.... I am a better, I think.... No more signs of a cold! Hooray!!!

HHmm... I'm still a little low, but I'm managing, so I am glad for that....


Edit: I am glad I stuck around & fought through what was happening.

Oh yes! & Mich, thank you for your post! It makes my day as well.

I don't like posting back to back.... Well... I forgot where I posted about something....

I believe I said on here that I was at 1% recently, but I do not remember where I put it..... I might have even said I was at about 80% somewhere.... I'm about 65 60 70% now....

Argh! I just wanted to let every one know I'm feeling a little better. My sore throat seems to have returned, but I was really silly today & don't know if that had any thing to do with it....

Since I was down for a little, I listened to some music that almost always makes me laugh & then I started humming/scatting... (sp?) Whatever it's called, I hit the notes in the music.... so it's like a voice singing the notes....

It's pretty funny.... & I make faces as I do it.... (serious to sinister to Adam's family creepy, innocent, etc.) That's what makes it such a good laugh....

I'm feeling a little hot.... I think I will go check to see if I have a fever.... Argh.... Time for some honey--thyme--green tea or something like that....

I feel chilly & sort of warm at the same time.... Meh....

hi crystal, take some echinacea a.s.a.p if you feel you're getting a cold (herbal tablets or tincture,try your local healthfood shop although here in england we have it in most mainstream pharmacies as well,is it your lucky day???) zinc and vitamin c are also good

I hope you are not coming down with something.

Me too Mich... I hope I'm not coming down with something.... ~lol~ I'm not going to worry, though.... I'm just going to roll with it & counteract it....

Thanks Lisa! Yes, I have some calendula--echinacea iced tea brewed & in the fridge that I've been drinking.

Thanks for the suggestion! Thank you for all of your good thoughts for me! Thank you!

I have been sort of low lately.... I've been battling it..... It nearly won...


but I'm okay now, I think.... I just wanted to let every one know....

Edit: My sore throat seems to be gone... I think?
I don't have a fever....

Hhmm.... Um... but almost every one in the house coughs uncontrollably during some part of the day!!!

I don't know what's up with that! More goldenseal-thyme tea, I guess.....

I'm glad you're feeling a bit better,i think it's very easy to get even lower when you're physically ill too. Make sure you have some pampering time and watch a dvd in your PJ's or play some nice music and put on some nice girly lotions and potions and do your nails or give yourself a neck and shoulder massage or something
