Picking up the pieces again *SU Trigger*

cpn chat was good. She listens and is very encouraging. my mood is still low and my thoughts are still racing. I think that is why I'm bouncing from 1 thing to another. distract distract distract. I am trying to engage in projects to support others at this time as it helps me fee useful. tonight I was crocheting bands to put buttons on for hooking mask elastics on to protect users ears. I've about 15 crochet and will sew the buttons on tomorrow/today.
I've been really cross with myself for always being hungry and nibbling but realised today that it could be the increase in my risperidone. I forgot that it can increase your appetite. I'll keep an eye on it anyway. I have been carb craving since last week when it was increased. hindsight is a wonderful thing.

I hope that means you’re not cross with yourself any more?

eeerrrrrrrrrrmmmmmmm. I could lie........ actually today I have been able to control my appetite better, although I didn't walk today to burn any off. I did my beginner yoga again. I am enjoying it, it really does help me slow down my brain a bit even just for a while
