What are your lives like?

What do you do with your time, how do you feel? I’m curious.

Everyone who sees this, please answer.

I have sort of a regimen I stick to everyday in regards to waking up, going to bed, taking meds etc. I don’t work but I am looking to go back to school soon.

I mostly just surf the net, play guitar, and listen to music. I feel like I lead a very asinine existence. I want to go back to work soon as a teacher and contribute to society. I would like to get a girlfriend someday.

Overall I am content for the most part. I have a roof, food, a cat, and the rent is paid. It is the small things that matter in life.

I feel completely overwhelmed with all the shtuff that keeps getting thrown on my back- the stress is killing me!
I just want to tell some people to leave me alone, pay your money you owe me and stop being a pestering Dick. Same goes to those who won’t let me have a moments rest just because I’m the only female and that makes everything my fault?

I work every day except Sunday. Work is usually relaxed and I spend a significant amount of time reading or looking at the internet. The commute is about 45 minutes each way, 1 bus and 1 train. I go to therapy twice a week. At home I go on the internet, watch movies, and talk to my partner. I text with my 1 or 2 friends. I clean, do the dishes, stretch and meditate. I am fairly addicted to the internet. I’m also starting school in June so I’ll be much busier. I hope I can handle it.

I go to work Monday-Friday. I work 6 hours a day as a Special Education Assistant. I spend my time there helping my kids with their work and keeping them from misbehaving…otherwise I get stressed about various issues with teachers, administrators and others. I make small talk as needed and smile at everyone.
Sometimes I have to get groceries on the way home, but if I can not run any errands then I’m home by 3:00. There are chores to do, but mostly I sit and watch tv, read, or come on here…I make dinner most nights and eat with my husband. I get ready for bed and that’s my day…
On the weekends, I often wake between 3-4:30 am. Coffee. I go on the computer and look for a movie to watch. I do chores later, go for a walk often, and relax…
I’m not very interesting or active. A lot of my life is played out in my head… which makes wanting to do more activities difficult.

I usually play around on the internet, and every other day I go to the gym.

I eat. I clean. I sleep. I relieve myself.

I work a standard 40hrs/wk job in customer service over the phone. It’s usually slow paced. At home, I clean some, cook, watch Netflix, and play with the animals. I sometimes paint if I have the mental and physical energy. In the summer, we try to go to festivals downtown. I also am on my phone A LOT more than I should be - it helps distract my mind, because I don’t like my mind.

I sleep all day and rock all night. Occasionally the law comes to get me if I don’t walk right

Right now I work weekdays and watch movies or go out on the weekends. I also try to help out with housework and paperwork when I get home at night. My negative symptoms are genuinely improving so I can do a little more after work than I could before.

I work compulsively to avoid dealing with life, to the point that it looks like a tornado blew through my condo. It’s a very empty existence. I’m starting to reach out for other balls to keep in the air, and trying not to get discouraged if I drop them a time or two. When I’m burnt out from work, the sick, sad truth is that I usually play video games. I can go two or three weeks without getting out of the condo longer than it takes to go to the grocery store. My self-confidence is in the toilet. One unstable night will rattle it for days. It’s a tough illness, right?

Yup. Wish I could play video games.
