Meghan,
It stinks to feel that way. I wonder why I can't just relax and enjoy the good moments and not seem to always be focusing more on the bad.
Maybe you need a different med, if you're on one, or maybe you need to be on one. I know I need one, so I'm not the best person to give you advice there.
For me, when I'm having good days I don't need anything at all. I want to be able to pick and choose the days I want to take something and have it take effect immediately each time. I want the miracle drug, an instant, non-addictive happy pill!
I know it sounds cliche, but maybe a vacation is in order. An hour or two, or a week of doing what you like. Even if it's simply reading or sleeping.
Also, now that spring is here, try taking a walk and focusing on what's going on around you instead of your internal worries.
I wish I could help more. Hope you feel better soon.
