Week 40

Image
Had a pretty good week. Feel like I accomplished a lot.  On the depression and anxiety front I had a very balanced week. I was able to keep my emotions in check and stay calm.  Been eating at home more than ordering out. Stood up or did leg exercises every day this week, even with my hips hurting.  Went today with my wife to an actual barbershop. First time I had a professional haircut and beard trim in six months. I feel great.

Short post this week. I am maintaining my course with my therapy and meds and eating and trying to strengthen my legs.  As always feel free to comment below.  

Week 38

Had a good week. Met with my doctor. Attended a virtual group meeting. And went shopping.  Met with my psychiatrist via phone on Thursday and went over concerns I had about some of my medication. We made some changes and I’m good for another three months.  I attended my first group meeting with others at the psychiatric center via video conference. It was an interesting experience and helped me feel less alone in what I’m going through.  For the first time in a long time I bought some clothes for me. Spent too much as we all seem to do but I’m happy and waiting on my shipment to arrive.  I did leg exercises and/or stood up everyday. Trying to continue making healthier choices.  As always feel free to comment below. 

Week 37

Been an interesting week. Had to analyze how I do things and look at myself.  On the physical level I did leg exercises and/or stood up every day. Couple of days I felt less shaky.  Spoke to my therapist this week and we had to do my six month treatment plan. I don’t remember having so many questions that were hard to answer last time. It’s really had me thinking do I take good enough care of me? Been an emotional blah week no real highs or lows just kind of here.  As always feel free to comment below. 

Week 36

Been a long week and I pushed my body more than I probably should have. My grandmother was diagnosed with chf and bladder cancer and only given a short time to live. Because of my health limitations I hadn’t seen her in almost two years.  That wasn’t going to sit well with me. So my wife took off work and we made the trip up there. The visit went well and I’m at peace but my body is still sore.  As to be expected my anxiety and depression levels are increased right now, but I’m doing ok.  Been working on eating healthier food and I stood up everyday this week.  As always feel free to comment below.
