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

Tired, overtired even, kind of GROGGY. My head feels like it has something in it that should not be there. What, I could not tell you, but... anyway, I woke up at midnight, after only a few hours of sleep and have not been able to get back to sleep. It is now 1:23 AM. So, not to lay in bed all night and mope, better to come here and cheer!
 
I'm feeling anxious, drained, tired and wired. I was told something this morning that hit me like a blow to my solar plexis. I feel it will take me a while to get back on an even keel.

I will put my mask on tomorrow and go visit my daughter who will be 26. We have planned lunch and then we will see how we feel. It is a long drive so I can't afford to let my mind wander.

Sorry to read you post KP. How are you now?

Hope you had a good day with your daughter & it helped you through a difficult time.
 
Numb......

After all the hard work to recover from PTSD I am now fighting physical illness.

For the first time in many years I was looking forward to christmas & new year. I've made plans, enjoyed buying gifts & made plans to stay with family. My annual dread of this time of year seems to have faded into just a memory with no triggers. Now all that has changed.

Yesterday I was diagnosed with acute heart failure, at 56 it came as rather a shock, in just 4wks I've become so exhausted & there is no way I can make the journey to Devon. I havent been well with a cough, repeated chest infections & asthma for the last 2 yrs, now a cardiologist tells me I need surgery to replace damaged heart valve. I'm really grateful for the fact that it can be operated on but at the same time I'm really fed up with all that PTSD has brought me. The cardiologist tells me the damage started 4-5 yrs ago, just about the time my ptsd started, makes you wonder doesnt it?

I'd report the f*cker to the police and want revenge. However my daughter appears to have dealt with it. She told a really close friend (male) and he helped her, in fact he wanted to sort HIM as well. She knows she can talk to me but I really think she will be fine. She has been in a couple of steady relationships since then and seems to have put it down to a hard learning curve.
