Ha...I just had to pick out something for a post. Anyways, Hello Babble!
Well, things are going ok, got a SPECT scan and hoping that the correct treatment will go.
I don't know what it's going to look like, but I sure hope it's evidence of something.So far, I have to admit this...I abused stimulants in the past, but if it is offered again I have to take this correct, I mean this would blow my chance. There's really not that much proganda on it, but I did abuse it yet going though the day...I just cannot "function" at work, or if i'm around the house I just lay in the bed because...there's something that's low, and not activating.
Anyway's does anyone have a thought on improving life skills here? maybe this site can turn into a semi-social working thing to help people that just are in bad circumstances. I've been in day's that I don't want to rerember, but there always is something alot worse outthere. Really...a social worker could work here, yet I'm not a qualified one, I do see logic and what to do. I just don't apply happiness to my life [I don't know why]
Here are some tips on how to stay in a good state:
1) Listen to music that has been studied to improve your mood, like go to barnes and noble and go into the new age section they have "tons" of enlightenment music that kinda, makes you in better mood, yet the radio could just get you out of the dump's2) Know what bad things your mind thinks, how your mind thinks and kinda predict what the outcome will be. I wanted to go get a drink today yet something changed my mind, and I bought a "theta brainwave CD", that was much more better than drowning in alcohol.
3) Write down what causes fear, and what's causing it.
4) Write down how you feel [not according to outside circumstance] just how feel at the moment, like there some times I just feel like s-h-i-t, but don't offend people and say that to them.
5) Think about random things, let your mind teach itself way's of thinking, thought patterns and how is the mind thinking on things...learn how your thinking branches off to other things and how did you get to a thought, is it connected to other things that lead to a connection of liner thinking?
6) If you do believe in Higher force, open the bible and read the first thing you open to...I've done this and come across some intresting things that I don't usally read when I just open a chapter to read.
That's all for now.

Hey Babble:
Listen this is what's going on in my life, I still am living at home and I just, I see life and I was at this same point around 2008, then I saw my brother and things got better than...I just made mistakes both by choice and by "natrually" just not knowing what to do, and it left me to resort back to a prison. I went off the medication that was needed, and the reason was I was drinking alcohol [tuaca, southern comfort] and that lead to discontinuation of medication because I was also taking regular Xanax with it, and my mom didnt want me dead.
Look, can we become like a online counsel here? you know since this website started it's a good place to come to for help. What I do need is a counsel, and I need them to know all aspect's of how I am to excel in life. Right now i'm floating everyday and trying to see life, I cannot hold a job without the medication that I need, and there as been adversity against it which is saying "it's speed" yes it is speed, [dexedrine] yet I was taking it when I was working for my brother and it did help in some aspect's yet I just redosed on it frequently. Now I can't function through the day, and I don't know what to do. It's like i'm slowly dying, because I've gained alot of weight, people are not sympathetic to know that "there is a disablity" and it's looked down on. I got a SPECT scan because my doctor wanted me to...that may have some good results of what is needed.
There is a person that I live with that is, controlling and I don't know how to break away from this, it's like a bondage, and I would litterly just "fall apart" if I tried to go on my own. People don't know, I just breakapart because I need someone there with me.
I mean, my life I want to keep, and not give it over and say "it's nothing" and alot of people seem to think that I don't believe negative things people think of me, because I could not "live" if there was no life support inside. I'm in so much psychological agony, because I just cannot find what to do. All I know is to wait, and get the test results and things will be ok. I don't want to lose my life, and living a delusion that things will get better when the logical truth is there going down. You have to say positive things inside, because you mind will follow what you think.
If all, if anyone can help, we'll I just can have support here. I am known to hear info, then not act on it, so I need to let that be known.
Pray..Set the mind to a goal, and get there. I don't want to be the "scum" of people in conversations.
