I wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving. Now I'm gonna whine. It is the Risperdal causing the hip pain and the muscle rigidity or spasms or whatever you want to call it also moved up into my neck, at the base of my skull. So I had to quit taking the Risperdal. Doing so plunged me into depression or maybe its just my cycle having been interrupted by the Risperdal simply resumed. The depression hit hard the day I was supposed to go the City and be fingerprinted for volunteering at the zoo. I couldnt do it. Soooo I am too screwed up to even manage one day a week. I couldnt even manage the initial process. I was manicky for a while and while I was I maxed out my credit cards (duh I have to pay for them now) . I also got all my bills organized , written out and sent out early. Unfortunately I sent them one day too early. Several of them hit the bank the same day my check arrived and they oh so kindly decided to bounce them all even tho all but one had cleared before that. So I had several $35 bounces charges I couldn't afford at all. This seriously messed up my finances. I havent bounced a check in probably 10 years or more So it will take a few months to recover from this blow plus its harder to do as I have to make all those credit card payments.... or lose the credit I worked so hard to get. "Someday" when my daughter is out of school and working and paying the rent I want to buy a car. If I dont keep up with these payments that will be impossible.
I keep hearing the song that was playing in my head while Torrey was dying. Its playing in my head now. I'd like to think that means hes close to me, but I cant communicate with him and that makes me very sad. All in all, life sucks for me at this moment. I know most of these feelings of hopelessness can be attributed to depression but I still feel them. I feel hopeless. I feel I am going to be sick (actively so) broke and alone for the rest of my life however long that might be. I can think of things to be thankful for, I really can but I cant FEEL them right now. I hope that one day these holidays aren't so damned painful. I really do wish that you all are having a truly happy light hearted Thanksgiving.

Life can suck and you don't always have to feel all the good things that are going on around you. Try to find and feel one thing. Holiday deaths are the worse and hard to deal with. My holiday was Labor day. Its been 43 years but when it gets to be near that day and time I still have it on my mind.
But Thanksgiving Day is here and I am eating what I want and when I want, NO TURKEY YEA. I made all the sides and enjoyed them by myself. I have talked to a few of my kids so far and one of my great grands.
Hope things get better for you soon. Love ya
Hugs!

Summer 08 i went bankrupct from medical--i understand about the money.
Happy Thanksgiving, we can hope for a good 2010.
The hypomanic spending can still be a problem for me too. I am still trying to drag myself out of the financial hell-hole that my uncontrolled spending from before I was diagnosed 6 years ago caused.
It sucks to not be able to FEEL the joy of being grateful but remember that it's okay--it doesn't make you a bad person that you can't feel it. I always beat myself up for that when I'm in that place.
well we are in Canada so our thanksgiving was ummm last month i think and well all i know is it SUCKED BIG ONES to so your not alone there ANYWAY we hope you feel better soon or at least be able to tolerate your days until then bunches of hugs
Most of the crew
Going to the police department to be fingerprinted and going to the zoo to feed the animals are two completely different types of activities. Just because you couldn't manage one doesn't mean you wouldn't be able to manage another. There are lots of things you do manage when depression is rearing...I think you might want to consider trying again.
Oh honey. Ugh.
I'm with you in thoughts and prayers.
If you call your bank, they will often and most likely reduce the charges for the checks. At least give it a try.
Hugs to you. :)
Just checking up on you.
Hey Raine, hope life is well for you.
