moods for the last month. O is the worst, 10 is the best.

Last month, dh and I agreed I was an 8. Now I am closer to a 5. Been a ton worse but been a ton better too. Does anyone else get asked this question? Where are you all at these days? It helps me put everything in perspective when I average out the moods and really think about the question.

I guess that's a fair question:) My tdoc used to ask me this question, now she just looks at my face and pretty much answers the question for herself. She stopped buying the "I'm ok" response when I was in a really really bad place like between a 1 and a 2. But, now I'm a bit more honest with her and my answer usually matches the one on my face.


Right now, I would say I'm pretty close to a 5 - maybe closer to the 4 range. With all the stuff with xdh and child support, and dd and her bio-dad, school getting ready to start back up, and a whole bunch of other stuff, I guess I'm actually holding well with the 5. I just hope it doesn't sink any lower.


Hang in there Missy:)


Hugs,
Traci

I think right now I would be about a 4. I am still in limbo over my diagnosis. Was diagnosed as depression and GAD and now a therapist mentioned bipolar as a possibility. This was because all of the anxiety medications are not working well for me. The xanax still gets me through the day but my regular doc won't give me anymore and I can't get in to see my new pdoc until the middle of September. Anyway, I hope everyone else is more towards the good numbers.

thanks for asking, I guess I should have said more....it's just this depression will NOT GO AWAY. I am so ready for it to fly out the window.....along with the hot weather....summer isn't usually good for me. But it's nice to have a board like this with people who understand. :)
