A Few new things
I have been a daily dose of Vyavance for ADHD for 13 months now. Helps keep me centered and in a space of self reflection which is good. I started on a light dose of a low mood/anxiety/anti-depressant at the beginning of March. My health care professionals told me it would take 6 weeks for me to fully feel/notice the effects. I find I am able to tolerate more, I don’t get frustrated as quickly or as easy. I have been looking for a job since late August last year. After I went on leave from my previous job; I Sold my property, Packed up my life and moved Back to my family farm, Applied for disability Got denied, house sat, applied for EI, applied for WCB, got denied with WCB, got approved for EI on Sick leave in January (have not gotten anything from EI Yet), applied for 3 different programs at educational institutions-summing $500 in application fees. Went on 2 road trips to look at buses, went on another 2 road trips to look at truck campers. Spent $1000 on gas doing so. Bought a truck camper. House sat, Resigned from my job, applied for personal health benefits. Watched Dune Part II in theaters. Got accepted into an IT program in Saskatoon. Applied for over 300 jobs, in office, hybrid, and remote. fixed computers and cried a lot. Encompassed in all the above-more paperwork and e-documents to sign than i care to talk more about. A busy 7 months.
Was i depressed? Yes, i was.
Have i been anxious? I sure have!
Have i had panic attacks? Not since last march.
Have i been stressed? yes, very much so.
Did i learn a lot? I absolutely did. Would i change anything? I would not. Am I forever thankful that i have a family to move back in with until i get back on feet? More than i could ever put into words.
I am currently sitting at our kitchen table watching a blizzard on April 18th at 6pm. what a day!
I thought about adding a section under my story to add to that section but i didnt want to take away from the authenticity of what i wrote there, Im not sure how often i will publish these but i find writing soothing, if helps me process things when i am stuck. It may be once a month, once a week. im not sure. As things change and develope in my life i will write them as i see fit and time allows.
I have added an amazon shop section of various products that i use, if you use one of the links i think i get a miniscual commision, but hey every 5cents helps :)
I hope everyone is have a good week,
Stay excellent,
Love James
