Hit a bit of a low point today, much worse than the last while. I think I've been trying to put a smile on things but it just all got a bit too much today. Just want to be normal.

Has anyone been on the Life Skills programme by Aware yet? I got a place in Cork but I know some of you in Dublin may have already started. Freaking out about going but I know its what I need. What was it like? Im terrified of having to do group exercises

Slept bad last night. No wonder it's so hard to get out of the blackness, you couldn't sleep because you were anxious, you're anxious the next day because you couldn't sleep. Anyone else like this?

I agree with that.

Well started my new tablet today Abilify throwing up extreme nausea sometimes you wonder if its worth all this crap.

Worried to go to bed tonight if last night was anything to go by slept for 3 hours heart racing and flip flopping kept waking and jumping in sleep, woke at 5.30am crying for no reason well had reason had no medication until this morn.

In a constant state of anxiety if thats possible god its hard

See that's part of the reason why I'm miffed. I've gotten a lot better than what I was but nowhere near the level of reclaiming my life. Perhaps I'm just being greedy.
