Am I living yet?


 What a difference a day makes!!!
Back to Full Blog  

Or at least I wish it did. Every evening/night I talk myself into becoming the best me I could possibly be. This involving everything from exercising, to meditation, about being a better mother, everything. BUT I start off on my pity pot, do the woe is me dance but am managing to snap out of it sooner than before and start with the positive re-enforcements instead. I get myself all psyched but then morning comes and it's back to the same old me. Why me? I always get the raw deal, my life is so hard, lost 2 brothers, one 36 in 96 and the other 42 in 2000, I'm on compensation because of my back and they won't operate again because the first one didn't work and the risks don't out weigh the possible gain, have to find a job by March and can't even get myself to buy a fricken' paper to read the classifieds let alone apply for a job. My union messed right up because I should have a job to go back to but some mistakes with status has me now without a job.
It's an entire script that I run through daily. I want so badly to live in the today, in the now, and stop thinking about how things used to be, with family, work, etc. This tape is running in a loop in my head. I can't seem to stop focusing on the back then and start looking ahead instead. Every night I manage to snap out of it and think ok tomorrow it'll be different, but then tomorrow comes and it's back on the pot.
I'm looking forward to next week with my doctors appointment. She'll be trying different meds for my bi-polar because obviously things just arent' working out. The only thing is that it can take weeks to have the full effect to know if it's working or not, and if not it's start all over again with different drugs.
I just want to be normal, have a regular routine kind of life, that's all I want and pray for, but I must have been some kind of aweful because my prayers are not being heard, I can't even have that.

I want to thank those that have been replying to my blog, whether positve or not, feedback is a good thing and I always look forward to seeing what others are thinking about my screwed up thinking. It really shouldn't matter but somehow it does

Hi,I really enjoy reading your blog,I have had 5 back surgeries and still need at least 2 more but the insurance company won't pay for them so I'm stuck,it wouldn't be bad except they put in a stephy plate in one of them and one of the screws broke but when they removed it they didn't remove the part of the screw that had broken off,fun huh?So now I have the back problems and severe depression,I was able to get my disability social security about a year ago,but since they changed the laws I get a check but have to wait 2 years before I recieve medicare insurance so it takes most of my check for Doctors and meds,it took over 2 years to get my disability,by that time I had lost everything,so now I live in a motel room,anyway,I hope you keep writing,be good to yourself,notagain49

praying cannot balance the scales of the chemicals that make the Bi-Polar thing happen...it can just soothe your soul until the medication works, and I very much hope they work as well for you someday as they did/do for me. I have been on them for 28 yrs sucessfully...all the best to you, Chloe...BigChris
