I’ve been feeling good and stable this year because of my meds. I had some post traumatic stress but it’s much less than it used to be. I also got kind of bummed out because of current events and because I’m fearful about the future but that’s normal and there’s nothing I can do about that. The main thing is that my anger is much less from my chronic post traumatic stress so that’s good. I even lost two pounds last month. I just want to lose weight so I won’t be obese anymore. My blood pressure is good. I’m hoping it will be a good year for me this year and I can accomplish all of my goals for 2022. The main thing I struggle with is showering every day. I’m thinking I can shower every Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday. That gives my towel time to dry because the thing I hang my towel on doesn’t have enough room for me to put my towel on there because my dad has two towels on there for some reason so I have to fold my towel in half so it probably takes a day or two for it to completely dry. I don’t want to dry off with a wet towel. That’s about all I have to say. Just checking in if anyone cares.
It’s good to read good post of recovery, keep hanging in there my friend.
Glad to hear your doing well @anon21849028
Keep moving forward even if it’s small steps.
Hang in there
I recovered a lot but still have a lot to recover from l, I plateaued. Can’t seem to get any better.
same here… i been like i am for long time. don’t get any better and sometimes worse for a while and then they change my meds and i do ok for some time again.
what exactly is recovery?
Its great, my angermanagement makes progress as well. I didn’t had an outburst of anger for awhile. Only three days ago i yelled at the TV, but i haven’t thrown any objects in two years and didn’t banged the wall with my fist for at least seven years.
You’re doing more than good @anon21849028 – this is AWESOME. Fist bump to ya and thanks for sharing a success.
Thanks, I will!
Sorry to hear that. Maybe you guys can benefit from some CBT. That’s what I do and it helps me.
Recovery is a return to a normal state of health, mind or strength.
That’s great! I haven’t broken anything or punched walls for years.
Thanks @shutterbug. I’m just really focused on my health and getting healthy again. I want to live for a long time even though I don’t think I’ll have kids.
well most of us put on hats to appear that way.
I also haven’t had any alcohol since last summer.
I am getting out again today for a walk. I have hopes my back will get better. I believe it got bad from doing nothing but sitting in my stinky chair. I’m going to wander around town for a good while. Just do what feels natural. I don’t drink or smoke either. I keep forgetting to ask my pdoc what she thinks of CBD. Damn, I talked to her today!
Yes i avoid the alcohol as well. I noticed its agitate me. Only when i am with my friends, but i don’t drink somewhere as a stranger. I drink when i have no way out, so only temporarily. I wish i could say i never drunk alcohol in my life. But i was still a kid when i drunk my first drop.
I’m about to go for a walk.
I wish I never drank alcohol either.
