I think you are still concerned because you don't like that kind of stuff.
I think you need to remember that it might have been just what she
needed. Since we don't have a clue why people do or say things.

Maybe taking it out on you. Helped her not take it out on a child of hers.
Or someone that would have physically done something.

I am sorry it happened though.

I've been surrounded by people who "communicate" like that throughout my life, but that doesn't mean I like it. I can even dish it out if I'm really provoked, but that's a very rare occurrence now. I've changed, and how I react to behavior like that has changed, too.

My social anxiety is bad enough on its own. I'm not having a lot of positive interactions, and obviously that was a very negative one. Maybe that's a driving factor.

The woman was yelling at me from inside her car, and made no attempt to get out, so I wasn't consciously worried about her assaulting me. I do have an awareness of my physical vulnerabilities though, and I've been worried about that in the past.


I fell asleep on the couch yesterday morning and had to go back to bed. I slept until 3:30pm. I think now that I've come down from hypomania the am dose of gabapentin is too much for me. That's why I stopped taking it twice a day before. I'm going to hold it today to see if it makes a difference… I think it will.
I have to reschedule the pdoc appointment I missed due to car trouble.

I have to buy cigarettes and finish up the rest of the grocery shopping today. I hope skipping the am gabapentin helps because if today ends up like the last two days, going out will be impossible without another epic nap. I'll take my pills early in case I need that nap, and hope that it won't be a long one.

I hope you are able to get done what you need to get done. I know that you need your naps...sorry about missing your pdoc visit, I hate car troubles.

Skipping the gabapentin really helped. I was able to get my errands done before taking my regular (2 1/2 hour) afternoon nap.

Since the second dose of gabapentin is so sedating now, I obviously don't need it to slow me down anymore, which was it's intended purpose. I'm not taking it during the day anymore and will let my pdoc know that when I see her.
I have to call today to make an appointment with her. In the meantime, I'm not worried about side effects from the med change. I've had to make the same adjustment before.


I had plans to travel to the outlets today to run up the mileage on my car, but it's supposed to rain all day and I can't drive in those conditions. I hate having to change plans, but I'll have to wait until tomorrow until the weather is better.

well I hope your weather cooperates, ya never know. we had 100% forecast for rain yesterday, was humid but not a drop.

I ended up taking a 4 hour mid-day nap yesterday even though I didn't take the gabapentin

I've had a cough with congestion for about a month now and have been treating it with OTC meds. My thermometer's dead so I haven't been tracking my temp, but I woke up this morning in a cold sweat feeling like someone punched me in the face. Maybe it has turned into bronchitis, or I have a sinus infection, and that is what has been causing the increased fatigue? IDK. I guess I'll try to get an appointment with my PCP just in case. Blah.

Whatever the reason, I've been prone to these long daytime naps for the last week, so I don't think it's a good idea for me to get in the car and drive 150 miles solo. The outlets aren't going anywhere, and I have almost 60 days to return to have my car reinspected with the additional 150 miles on it.

I am sorry you have been sick.

I hope that the yucky cough and fatigue lets up so you feel better.

I couldn't get an appointment with my PCP or the NP in the office, so I was referred to urgent care. I have mild pneumonia and a sinus infection. I got a gentle you should know better/have to do better speech. I'm on antibiotics, will be resting, and should start feeling better in a couple of days.
