Bought 30grams of baccy today. It cost me £30, insane.
Feeling wide awake at 23 mins past midnight. Unsure how I’m gonna sleep tonight. I had some IPA’s to numb the pain.
Also spoke to a really cool lady from Samaritans. Her name was Catherine, felt listened to and empathised. She helped to put my focus into what needs to be done.

Took a break from my sudoku random puzzle solver. It doesn’t work. I got ‘close’, but it’s not right.
I’m going to have to call a new dentist on Monday when they’re open.

Well my much younger sister was at my home and decorated my kitchen. She found my meds and the label clearly states that I’m mentally ill. I haven’t told her about my illness.
I didn’t say anything. I guess I’ll tell her that I’m mentally ill. Even though she knows already.
That aside I’m a bit worried, I’ve had some problems with constipation and now I’m shi-tt-ing blood. It’s probably hemorrhoids. If I keep bleeding I’ll make an appointment with my doc.
Today I ate some sushi. That was yummy.
How was your day @Turtle44?

Haldol is a strong med. You should feel it’s sedating effects.

Hey guys! how is your day going?
I went for an hour and 50 minute walk this morning. It was good. then i had a pie and chilli beans on toast with cheese for lunch.
I’m feeling pretty good now, getting used to the small town pace of life.
what’s new with you folks?
@Speedy do you drink a lot of coffee? I found that drinking lots of coffee makes me constipated.

Ok! I’m on olanzapine and they say it’s sedating but I don’t feel it.

I was going to quit the energy drinks cold turkey, but decided to just cut back right now. I woke up at 3PM today. I didn’t want to get headaches. It’s not a real addiction I was told.
I’m trying.
I’ve been brushing my teeth once a day now.
I’ve been drinking them mostly since high school. It got bad after I developed schizophrenia. I started drinking several a day. I’m not sure why. It’s an addiction. I think it’s the routine, sameness, etc. It probably helps with depression and other things. It doesn’t really benefit or help me at all.
It’s like an OCD or obsessive thing I do. I get stressed out if I don’t have one and I drink even numbers. I don’t know why.
It’s unhealthy. It’s expensive.
I used to drink 1-2 a day starting out. It helped with energy, motivation, and helped me study in college. At least I’m drinking the low carb and low sugar ones. I don’t have diabetes, but I worry about other things.
I lack will power and self-control. It’s an impulsive thing I do.
I lack long term goals and motivation and sometimes struggle with focusing on things.
I definitely like the ‘pick me up’ or ‘stimulant’ feeling I get with energy drinks. I don’t like the sugar or caffeine crash and I don’t notice that anymore.
It does increase dopamine though, but not by much.

What? I get constipated from tea but not coffee. Coffee actually makes my bowels work.
Perhaps you are just dehydrated?

Yeah probably, i tried drinking heaps of water on my coffee drinking day and it made a little bit of difference, but i’m much less constipated on caffeine free days

I’m doing talk therapy. It’s CBT, I guess. It helps. It’s nice talking to someone (a professional) for 45 minutes a week.
