Quote From: domerdudeI'm tired of feeling awful. I dragged my butt outside yesterday and walked four miles. Lately, I've been changing my eating habits. I still feel awful, but I feel better about myself for giving it more effort. I can't make the illness an excuse any more.
I go to Voc Rehab too and have for almost two years. I'm still not any closer to working and I'm sick of it. I feel like I have to just get up and do it. Make my mind up that the illness isn't going to beat me and just do it.
Hopefully I can sustain this momentum.
I know what you mean. No one can turn your life around but you. Leaning on bipolar to explain all your problems won't cut it. You have to do what you can. I always have the theory that everyone has a problem of some kind they have to deal with whether it is mental or physical and we all have to do the best we can.
I thought I had this illness beat until I got found out and fired from this job. I turned around and made my job into my hobby. I am lonely and dispossessed in a strange town but am still trying to do my best.
