What are you recovering from?

[undeterred]

I mean, besides the fall of the United States as a democracy....:shrug:

[Arugula Latte]

1. My youth.

I hit the big 4-0 this year. :cry:

[Mutley]

2. Work

It. Never. Ends.

[Taverner]

3. Parenthood

I had...no...fucking idea...it would be...this...much...work....

[Arugula Latte]

32. Heh heh ...

I know ... My mother tried to warn me ...

I'd have the little rugrats again in a second, however! :loveya:

[Taverner]

39. Me too

But I like running marathons too...but they and kids are ALOT of WORK

[petronius]

4. A cold...

Almost there, though - I think a bit of MNF will do the trick!

[graywarrior]

5. R-e-a-l-i-t-y.

It's a bitch and kicking me hard. I've been brought to my knees and I haven't been breathing on my own for over a month. I need all my strength to turn this around.

[texanwitch]

6. A sprained ankle.

:banghead:

[Liberalynn]

7. A really intense group therapy session tonight where the spotlight was on

Me! I cried. I hate that! Tonight was one of those rare nights where talking things out made me feel worse instead of better!

I think I am PMSing though and I always get over emotional and way too philosophical, and chatty for my own good, so that could have a lot to do with it, but I really want to stop crying at the drop of a hat.

[idgiehkt]

12. I freaking hate that.

I hate group therapy. Hate it, loathe it, despise it.

I've only done it twice, because where I was getting antidepressants from made me go as part of the deal. I'm not on them anymore, part of the reason is because I hate group so much. It's pure torture.

[Liberalynn]

16. Torture is how it felt tonight!

Since there were only two of us tonight, too much focusing in on me. The other group member was understanding and helpful but the two therapists were like really grilling me tonight and I just didn't feel like disscussing me tonight.

That's good that you were able to get off the anti depressants. Right now I am only on Paxil and a low dose anti-anxiety drug. I did ask my Primary Care if she could prescribe them, but she says she still thinks I need to check in wth the therapists because though the depression is improving, the anxiety isn't.

I would have much rather been here reading about Rethuglicans imploding on themselves. That's much more theraputic and interesting.

[democracyindanger]

8. Not recovering. Suffering

in Atlanta.

Somebody tell me why the fuck I moved from San Fran-freakin'-frisco for this craphole?

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

9. General Discussion Asshattery.

[BlueIris]

33. Ohhhh. That sucks.

My condolences.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

36. It's okay.

As other poster said to me, "I read that subthread and only every other response made sense. ;)"

[crim son]

10. I'm recovering from starting to recover.

Here I go again back into hell. Thanks.

[reyd reid reed]

11. Too much.

[Initech]

13. A two day hangover as the result of the Great American Beer Festival

Holy crap, I dont think I have EVER drank that much in my entire life! :hangover:

[Deja Q]

14. A tender knee

Too much elliptical trainer and stair climing. :(

But as the next 8 weeks goes by, it'll improve big-time. I wanna look and feel my best for a trip I am planning!

[Cannikin]

15. break up of a 6 year relationship...

The Big D. I had another sustained bout with it over the summer.

[Scout1071]

45. Hang in there.

Hopefully you have sought help.

[Writer]

48. I have been dealing with this for a quite a while - I'm a pro by now.

I have been through so much talk therapy that I'm about done with it. I just decided, after a few years of being off, that I needed to start retaking my meds again for a while. They have helped tremendously! :D

[BarenakedLady]

47. Me too

:hug:

[MissMillie]

20. Monday

[ThomCat]

See you tomorrow.

[undeterred]

29. been there many times

aint no fun at all, especially if you don't have insurance

[swag]

22. I am recovering from quite a weekend.

I didn't really overdo anything, other than the number of activities and interactions with people.

But what am I going to do? I'm 45, and I'm burning up time.

[catmandu57]

23. A torn something in my shoulder

I took quite a header in August and the pain is still there, I've been living on ibuprofen and aleve prescription strength. I haven't been able to sleep like I normally do since then, only on my back or side.
Harvest time is right around the corner I'll be living on medical marijuana then.

[coffeenap]

[enigmatic]

34. The Drive, The Shot, The Fumble, The Move, Red Right 88.........

http://www.crookedriversports.com/clevelandcursedsportscity.html

I grew up in Cleveland and have been a fanatical Cleveland Sports Fan since I was 7 years old. We're bitter, self-loathing, manic-depessive (and more, but it's too depressing), and if we were really honest, wouldn't have it any other way...

[BlueIris]

35. Total and complete schedule and emotional overwhelm.

Blech.

[Guava Jelly]

37. moving

and its a 12 step process :)

[undeterred]

38. now I'm recovering from being up all night with a sick dog

[coffeenap]

40. Is your dog better today? I hope so!

:hug:

[undeterred]

42. he was very drowsy early and then he was back to normal

He was even hungry. I think he needs a medication adjustment.

I am exhausted, however.

[skygazer]

41. Life

It's been an ongoing project. :eyes:

[Scout1071]

43. Heartache.

My best friends moved yesterday. Today is my birthday and I have cried just about every 30 minutes since I woke up. Just have little waves of sadness.

[gfindu]

44. A bad morning

[youthere]

46. Getting attacked in GD.

[NewWaveChick1981]

49. Ask me after next week.

:yoiks: Starting this Friday: I'm going to see my father in PA to celebrate his 75th birthday. Leaving Friday with my sister and brother and coming back Monday. Back in my office Tuesday, then I leave Wednesday for Atlanta for a conference. Drive back Friday evening. Leave Saturday morning for my husband's niece's wedding four hours away. Drive back from said wedding Saturday night. :yoiks: :( I think I'll be a little tired after all that... :rofl:

[ceile]

50. The death of my dad and

my fiancee being laid off the next day.
Tends to throw a girl for a loop.

[Left Is Write]

51. Anxiety.

I don't know if I'll ever be completely over it.

Years ago, I would have said I am recovering from anorexia, but it's been so many years, I don't think of myself as in "recovery" for that. With few lapses, I've been eating normally since I was about 15.
