tchr010's Journal

    Today has been kind of bad.  I woke up with more on pain on the right side of my body!  Also, my therapist was sick and had to cancel my appt so that was not good.  I think one of the reasons I am hurting so bad is that I am doing alot more and maybe over did it on the weekend. 

    I am in so much pain because of my IC so I decided to do more research and figure out what I can do on my end to help it.  This is part of me fighting my depression so I am proud of that!  Also I have been reaching out for more support which is good for my mood :)  I am trying to learn how not to be embarassed about this even though its hard.  I had a couple friends over last night and that was fun, we played video games and I made a dessert.  I am also still working on the cleaning although I had to stop because it was hurting my injuries.  well, today is going to be short because I have a ton of stuff to do but I might come back later.

    I didnt write a journal entry for the last few days because I was feeling pretty low.  I also realized I had to change my goal because there were other things I needed to do before I could do my losing weight goal.  Even though, I am in so much pain I am trying to wake up with a positive attitude and be more optimistic!  I am trying not to dwell on the bad things but instead embrace the positive things.  I have also started some mini goals that go along with this big one.  I want to get our apartment organized and cleaned up because I feel that really affects my mood and I felt alot better when I got some of the cleaning done the other day.  This is all I have to say for today because I am still working on the cleaning.  I am going to try to be more active in my participation on this site because I am still trying to get the hang of it :)
