Day Nine: Wednesday, March 11, 2015

Hump day 

Not long ago, I use to make myself sick with anxiety for Wednesday’s arrival.  This week, Wednesday couldn’t have come soon enough.  Last night I had an emotional fit that just completely overcame me.  I made it through and have come out the other side. 

When I felt it begin, I shut myself in my room with my kittens and tried to cry as quietly as possible in my hands.  Spencer was in the other room and I just didn’t want him to know, even though he could have consoled me.  I needed it to be private.  

Life isn’t fair.  Often I get stuck thinking about my short hand and it makes me upset.  I deal with this in many different manners.  Sometimes positive and sometimes not.  I keep reminding myself that it’s ok to let these feelings come just for the sake of getting them out.  

Thank goodness for this day.  Half-way through these meds that make me sick.  Maybe the drugs to come are going to be worse but I don’t know that yet.  I am just thankful that I am on the downhill from these current prescriptions.  

I am going to go to HyVee and get myself lunch.  Just thinking about the lunch I brought is making my stomach queasy.   I can’t help it, I think about certain foods and I’m like awe yes and then I think about others and I’m like barf.  

Another day down.
