Had a really bad morning today. I heard the alarm clock go off and I just was so angry that I had to get up and go to work. I took a .5 xanax hoping that would calm me down. Now I'm definately teetering, crying one minute and then fired up over nothing. I've prayed and prayed, and finally Ruth asked me what was wrong and I started crying, I eventually told her and we both prayed right there.
I feel so bad for putting my family through my episodes, I am so sorry. I only want them to be happy and I'm not helping them right now. I will continue to try and keep my chin up, continue to take my lithium, continue to consume 3liters of water a day, continue to pray and read my bible, continue to protect and serve my family.
Will try and write again tonight. No promises though.
Your doing exactly what you need to be doing and i am so proud of you, you are helping so much right now, with the kids, the house and work you do have enough to keep you busy and to say your not helping your not giving your self enough credit, dont forget that your wife is not perfect either and suffers from depression too, sometimes its hard to live with someone who is sick too, you deserve credit for that too, and you have dealt with that a long time too.
