What Are You Feeling Today? Not Thinking, Rather Feeling! Can You Identify Yours?

I understand what you guys said and also I.cant express this properly lol. I was thinking about this thread while walking and I laughed to myself because I realized I couldn't say it correctly.

I was doing the same thing in the therapists office today. I was trying to talk about my feelings and put them in words, but I'd open my mouth and nothing would come out so, I ended up looking at her a few times with my mouth hanging open and waving my hands around lol.

I believe this is what she means when she says I'm not in touch with my feelings.

I walked into T's at first really looking and feeling the word terrified....Oh, yeah....same time and place w T "I feel anger-but I don't feel it...I know I'm angry but anger is bad, so you won't see it, and T's like why not???.....because that's the way it's always been....(thinking at the time it's a stupid question)-LOL

Shame-that's a feeling? So I look it up in the dictionary.....cause nothing ever happened to me to feel that feeling, right?....yeah, I don't do shame-@ first, I had absolutely no connection to the word then-it was like there was a block (0 comprehension of that feeling)-must belong to someone else...cause I don't do shame.....2 years later, sometimes now a hint of it but only if I dig up stuff intentionally.....but it runs back and hides, and I still don't do anger-around others, but now my walls know anger.........it's a bitch to know you are angry.....but a part holds that back.....supposedly for my good....and not so long ago.....BOOM ANGER talk at my walls, in my car, but not in T's office....yeah, it just doesn't work there. I getcha now.

I feel deep sadness and profound loss. My sister passed around this time last year and although you might think the pain would have lessened it has not, instead it has increased. I think of her and miss her every single day, sometime suffering in silence other times shedding many tears. At any rate, I took her for granted thinking she would always be with me and in some way she is but physically she is not and that causes me a great deal of pain... so I am very sad today. Thanks for listening to me complain I don't mean to be a drag!!!

I feel anxious and fearful.

I feel angry.

I feel disappointed in myself

I feel very tempted to visit a site that I know ultimately will not make me feel better, which makes me feel really ashamed.

I also feel vulnerable. Stupid. Sad.

Got new T appt at 9am.....Hopefully, if I can get to sleep soon, I'll just be waking up at the appt.

I feel pretty peaceful, curious, feel like going out and doing having felt quite shut down n withdrawn for a bit.

Besides a bit of physical pain and a sense of loss over my sister's passing last year, I am feeling supportive and hope that I can somehow assist others in their healing journey.

What I lack in intellect I hopefully make up for with love and compassion. I hope I will be blessed with the right words to say, at the right time, and to the right person. I want to make a difference and so I am feeling generous and caring.

No, I totally get it....I have a family anniversary of my father's passing coming up in a couple weeks....but like everything else.....time helps the healing of loss...I hope.

@TruthSeeker I am getting some grief therapy now and although I am still very sad and miss my sister I am doing better and am not as depressed as I was. I am learning to celebrate her life rather than to just mourn her passing. I am sorry you lost your father and wish you comfort during the coming anniversary.

I'm doing okay....and the realization that those who have passed....are there in spirit for the talking to....if I choose to communicate with them, is comforting. I believe they never really "go away" but their spirit is accessible when I'd like to talk to them.
