Sep 2012

the husband has done a 180 since we moved out of our shithole cracker box, so my mood is much improved now that he's not depressed and paranoid.

i'm doing pretty well, the doc added abilify to my regiment and it's helping some, but we haven't found anything to really tamp down the anxiety and yammering thoughts. the damn committee in the back of my brain gets fired up and is so hard to shut down sometimes. i'm really stressed about money right now, so i'm sure that has something to do with it. last month was slim and this month will be even slimmer.

still, all things considered, we're doing well
