What are some of my personal stressors that are present in my life right now are excessive worries about my health and safety. I am worried about my two Uncles, who are in the hospital right now. Although I am declining in my health right now. I will admit that I have been sleeping excessively. I also have to admit that I am taking too much medicine each day. I would like to consult with all of my Doctors to see what I can reduce from the 38 medications that I have been prescribed as of late. I also will have to admit that I have been Court Ordered to take my psychotropic medications by a Probate Judge last year and in the past.
Further, I would like to lose at least 100 pounds within a specified period of time. I have been clean and sober for a large number of years now. This is the reason why I tend to go to the library on a daily basis. I need to visit the library and Church each day of the week. I need to learn how to love myself a whole lot more than usual. As far as my personal Relationships with my family members and friends, I do need to visit them more often than usual. I know that my apartment building is infested with bedbugs and other insects. At least, I have been spraying alcohol inside of my apartment. I also know that there are people who are selling drugs inside of the building. I will admit that I need to be more alert and careful while foods are cooking. I have burnt up pots and pans because I was not paying close attention to my foods.
Moreover, I want to say that I need to learn how to pay attention to everyone else as well as myself. Taking 38 pills per day has messed me up completely. I have been feeling sluggish and tired each day. I will admit that I need to stop drinking so much coffee because I need to rest more and perhaps, get admitted into the hospital for a while because I am in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease right now.
Finally, I need to throw more stuff away. I need to have a skilled nursing staff meeting with me on a daily basis. I do not drink as much coffee as I used to. At the AA Meetings, I used to drink five cups of coffee each day. The residents at my apartment building are very concerned about my personal safety and others who are in my situation. I have to end this essay by saying that I need to pay more attention to the things that I am doing for myself. I know that Alzheimer’s and Dementia runs in our family. I am in the early stages of Alzheimer’s, but the advance stages of Diabetes right now. I have to stop buying things that I do not need. I am very happy to just have my breath of life and my daily bread each day. This is something that I do not take this for granted. I take this very serious. Thank you for reading my essay.
