Sorry I haven't posted lately.
Rapid cycling. Short "def" - bouncing up and down like a friggin' bungee jumper.
I am happy I'm not "mixed" - that's up and down at the same time, and like I told Ron "That's where everyone suicides". Well worth the $8 a month for the Depakote to keep that away. Worth the weight gain. And the brain fog...
Anyway. Torbie cat has been an awesome, sweet, girl, sleeping with me every night, and even during some naps.
Ron's been alternating between supportive-ish and verbally abusive. He went off on me for 5 minutes today, in front of customers, because I asked him to bend his knees as I cut around a sharp corner. I couldn't make the turn with him sticking his legs straight out. He kept accusing me of "attacking him" and trying to get me... I don't know what the hell he wanted.
Anyway, he wound down, I avoided him, except for the usual bellowing for me now and then. Exhausting. And it was a short day!
I finally had the energy to go to Sears and order my glasses. I got 2 pair bifocals for about $300. Not bad considering, and purple frames to boot.
Ron paid. I don't feel at all guilty for that. He liked that mall.
I should get my glasses in 2 weeks.
Depression days are awful, I can't even do my God Time half the time. Manic days are good but I can't catch up on everything I couldn't do during the depressions.
Work is good. I'm showering and keeping up with the laundry.
I'm just weary.
Tomorrow (as scheduled for 3 months) I'll see Doc. Odds are I'll be manic. [rolleyes]
I get that Ron feels very frightened and uncertain when I'm depressed. He's very dependent on me. I understand that translates to lashing out at me.
It doesn't "make it better".
