Long covid and some cardiac frustrations are holding me back at 8.

I am at an 8 too. Basically, the problems are my hallucinations and side effects from medications.

I voted 8.

I don’t know.

The situation with family + kid is extremely complicated. With no improvement in sight, for dad refuses to cooperate with any help. But my mind is non-delusional and stable at the moment. There is joy and love. I broke with people/ideas that kept me ill. All my relationships except with my nuclear family run smoothly (kid, ex, friends, clients, colleagues, MH workers). Would like some closer contacts. But if the kid situation would be solved, it would be good.

What number does that make? :woman_shrugging:

I voted 8. I’m not ecstatic but it’s pretty darn good over here.

While I’m happy to report a hard earned 7! :sweat_smile:

I remember a dream I had some 5-6 years ago. Somebody unknown said to me “you should settle for little”. How should I interpret it? I choose to see it as “one does not need a lot to be happy”, but it can also be understood as a threat, like “know your place and don’t bite more than you can chew”.

I don’t usually believe that dreams carry a deeper meaning, but this one in particular has left me thinking.

I voted 6. I have somewhere to live and can afford to buy my food and pay my bills and still have enough money to do the odd thing I want to do (like go out, buy games music software clothes etc).

That said I lack any real relationships most days of most weeks. I have a close friend I speak with every so often and my mum checks in on me once a week or so but I’m alone 99% of the time.

I really struggle waking up and keeping my sleeping pattern going. Its so easy for me to sleep in and wake up in the evening.

I voted 7. Just a few months ago I’d have chosen a 4. The beginning of the year? 2 or less when my house froze and all the pipes burst. Xmas with it so cold that the pet water freezes unto solid blocks, in your house, is pretty down there in quality of life.

However, about 3 weeks ago my mental health began to shift for the better. I’ve posted a lot about the progress. It’s a combination of being careful to take my meds (ad and mood stabilizer) and determination.

I am determined to be happy and enjoy what I do have instead of crying over what might have been or never will be.

I’m still poor af. More so since we stopped getting welfare to help with bills (by choice, not kicked off). If not for good friends helping us out when we are out of food or essentials,I have no idea what I’d do. BUT, I am thankful for what I have,for what can earn, my family, and wonderful friends. That’s a life worth living.
