Okay well I've already taken my meds for tonight but my mind is wandering all over the place.

My boyfriend went to Ottawa the the other day and Im having a hard time being away from him for so long, he'll be gone for a week. He kept me in a routine (take pills at tthis time, etc) and was able to calm me down quite a bit. Without him here helping me I feel like a wreck but i dont want to tell himthat because I dont want him to think im smothering him or being too clingy, etc.

Super depressed right now i think Im going downhill for themoment. Do any of you have the same problem with being alone sometimes? Sorry about the typos medications kicking in. lol

I'm sorry dear, I took my meds and just felt so depressed that I think my two year relationship with my boyfriend is over.   It sucks not having someone you love around, especially when you miss them.

I think if you call your boyfriend and talk with him that may be enough to ease your mind and help you through the week. You said he was great in helping you so don't be afraid to lean on him when you need him. It can be difficult being on your own, but you have great strength inside of you, it's just a matter of accessing it. Hang in there. Smiley

Thanks guys. Smiley

Was having a hard time already and I guess just not having someone there is making it worse.  Undecided

a wandering mind... boy does that sound familiar... a spent the majority of my illness alone, with my wife at work and the kids at school... it bothered me alot, i would get caught up in myself and fall further down the rabbit hole... i don't have that problem that much anymore lately, thank God...

does your boyfriend have a cell phone? call him! i'm sure he'd love to hear your voice just as much as you'd like to hear his... guys like to know they're needed and that they are an important part of your life... don't you feel good when he tells you that you are important to him? in a loving relationship there's no such thing as smothering and needy... just sayin'...

I have a tough time being alone a lot. I actually am really odd because I hate being alone but get severely irritated being around people too. Sometimes when my husband is gone too long, I get mad at him for leaving me alone...

That's exactly how I feel right now but I don't want to yell at him for it because its really not his fault, I realize people can't be together 24/7 so why am I so angry at him for it?  Embarrassed

I'd love to call if he had actually remembered to bring his cell, I'm looking at it on the floor right now lol I guess you're right, just always worry I'll be too clingy. Smiley

I know EXACTLY how it is Geister. I always find myself yelling at my husband for no real reason. I don't know how he deals with me honestly. I exhaust myself, I can't imagine how hubby feels.

I did that to my ex too.  Sometimes you just need more than there is...you can't help it.  Hopefully he'll understand, sounds like he probably does.

when im alone sometimes i feel like i have to go someplace or visit someone. im working on just staying home and not taking hour trips to someone just to hang out and waste time. gas $$$ adds up. listening to music and browsing the internet helps. i dont have significant other so much time alone happens. and i cant just watch tv unless its like a huge event...feel like im wasting time...i need to find a crafty hobby i think.

Do you have a hobby?  I personally like to take up my time doing art, I can't concentrate for too long, but if I fiddly around with the music on my computer for a minute I can usually get another 20 minute session of drawing, which really helps to calm and get mind off of things at times.  If you do art, I think it would be awesome to see peoples creations, I know people with mental disorders have some of the most amazing talents.  Smiley

I draw too, it's a great way to relax and keep your mind busy.  And if you do it often enough you could make money from it too. Smiley

Do you have any recent work?  I'd love to see!  Do you have a deviant art account or something?

I'm starting a new piece!  It's very exciting because for four years I had kind of a dry spell.  If anyone has any art (in any shape or form) I'd love to see.  Smiley
