It should be within reasonable range, like e.g. you won’t wake up as a Yedi or Superman tomorrow and world hunger won’t be solved just in a few days, etc

    It already happened on Monday. Found out the surgery was a success, and I’m now cancer free \o/

    I’ll start. The best thing that can happen to me this week is to successfully make plans that I am happy about for the weekend :)

    My wife is interviewing for a job today. It would be a big deal if she got it, especially since she’s been out of work for six months.

    Considering they’re en route to the hospital now, welcoming my very first nephew to the world would be a pretty awesome highlight

    I can tell you something good that is happening this week. I got a job offer so I can quit the retail job I’ve been doing for 11 years.

        I’m pretty sure that my job is related to the majority of my mental health issues so I’m really happy to get out. It’s pretty emotional though because 11 years at a job is a long time.

      Congrats! My partner is in a similar spot. He deeply wants to get out of retail but even so, he’s remiss to leave behind a decade+ of his time at this company. It’s oddly bittersweet (and it doesn’t help that the job search has been rough too).

    All my digestive problems could disappear. That’d be rad.

    No more heartburn. No more constipation.

    A reliable sleep schedule.

    I’ve been having trouble with it for a LONG time. But last week I found that 2mg melatonin before bed makes me both fall asleep easier AND wake up in a better mood/less sleep inertia. I’m hoping it lasts.

      I also had issues sleeping. 50mg Trazodone. No more issues sleeping. I’m out for a solid 6 hours within 30 minutes of taking.

      the only thing I learned in therapy that helped me was getting the correct dosage of melatonin. I use to think you would take more to sleep longer and deeper - turns out no. Need to take less.

      I take 1mg now instead of 10 and it works amazing.

            Its only recently-ish (2020) become prescription-less here in Norway, and only in small amounts. We are a very conservative country when it comes to healtcare.

              that’s interesting, I had no idea. It’s kinda crazy you can get such a high dosage of it here over the counter or online cause after I talked to someone who’s a doctor- it doesn’t even seem like you need that much of it ever really.

      Oh interesting about the lack of sleep inertia! I’ve only tried melatonin once or twice but I had such heavy sleep inertia waking up. Glad you found something that works!

    A layoff/but out package that would carry me to my retirement date.

    One of y’all can have this job. I’ve been doing it for enough decades now.

    If my eife agreed to go to couples therapy, that’s the best realistic thing. Well, I don’t know how realistic it is.

        It’s been said that 90% of luck is preparation, and I’ve done about all the preparation I can do on this one.

          My wife had been after me to go to couples therapy. I was convinced we didn’t need it. After a while, I just scheduled something and sent her an appointment notice. Figured if she thought we needed it, I’d give it a try.

          She called the therapist and cancelled our appointment soon after i sent her the notice. She claimed, “we didn’t need to spend money on that right now.” She hasn’t brought it up since.

          No idea what that was about

            This is not a “I don’t want therapy because I’m not invested in the relationship” situation. This is a “I have a deep distrust of medical professionals due to past trauma” situation.

    I won’t be forced to work 6 days again and actually a good 3 days off so I can recharge for once.
