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

Apprehensive and not good enough (once again).

I feel like something bad is going to happen. I dont' like feeling this way, but I will ride the emotion out and see what presents itself. I've been getting a strong emotion for hours or days, then a memory that I had forgotten with come back to me. When it comes back I see it visually and sometimes feel the pain in my body. After it comes back I go numb all over and feel like I'm comming out of my body. This started happening after a few months of therapy. I feel like I'm riding a rollercoaster and like I'm going crazy.

Yes, that is what it has been feeling like to me for I don't know how long, I guess since I started with my therapist. It seems to have slowed down this week. I'm on slo-mo, FINALLY. I don't know who put it in this gear but I think I can catch my breath a bit. Now I have to figure how I feel about everything that happened so fast on top of each other. I don't know how to do that...

Well I am at work, a bit shakey after the commute. Luckily no pressure.

Finally got into the garden and enjoyed it but why do I still feel:

• Lost.
• Wanting to disappear into a hole as far as I can go
• So overwhelmed by everyday life stuff
• Scared

Oh, how to overcome these feelings........Deep breathe, focus and be grateful for my beautiful hubby and kids......

I feel depressed.
I feel physically ill and nauseous.
I feel sad because I had a dream where everyone trying to escape and get to safety died.
I feel fragile.

I think that I can do the self care to feel better and that I'll feel better soon.
I think that I will take the right actions today and it will be okay.
I think that I'm glad I see my shrink tomorrow.
I think that if my husband sees improvements, that I'll take his word for it because when I'm this way I am not objective.

Proud I went back to work.

stupid

I'm very very stupid for not realising my car MOT expires today, which has put me under extra pressure.

No I can't identify what I am feeling today. Don't know what it is, but I know I don't like it and can't seem to shake it off. Yuck!

I'm feeling very triggered again by firing ranges nearby. I heard some double barrel shot guns, some repeating rifles, some large clip pistols target shooting. I guess the police forces and the Secret Service folks are staying sharp. I'm a wreck, can't concentrate to paint. The project is at least one year overdue. That kicks up shame and not being good enough. Those triggers make me almost unable to think or move my body or take a full breath. None of my self- soothing things and strategies are available. They're here. I just can't move to get them. If there are any praying folks out there. I sure could use a lift. Thanks.

I should be sleepy it is 11.15pm but I feel to wired to attempt bed just yet.

Made it through, mind over matter. Got some validation, a friends family was sick over the weekend so it wasn't "all" in my head.

Like I am sinking. I'm pretending I'm fine. Don't feel like talking about it...don't feel like reaching out. Just feel tired. Just feel like shutting down to the world. Feel guilty for giving into these feelings and pretending with the happy face and cheerful voice. Just don't look deep...inside I am a wreck. So easy to tell others to reach out for help...yet so hard to do it for myself. Oh well....another bad night ahead like so many before. Tears...sigh...more tears....alone fighting my demons.
