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

Right now I'm feeling a little shaky, my stomach is in knots, my heart is beating fast, and music is irritating to me. And all of this for no conscious reason! I was doing fine and then bam!

I'm so grateful for this thread because by writing my feelings down, I'm actually SEEING how I feel. (If that makes any sense!) In other words, I never clearly saw that I felt the feelings that I described above and how often it occurs. This is a bit of therapy for me! Thanks! :)
 
Kim, thanks for your response. I think few people in my country celebrate it as a religious festival. If that's what it was, I'd find it easier. If anything, it's more like worship of family and childhood... real situation or fantasy that people want to think is real. This is not for me.

I know what you mean about seeing how you feel because of writing here. It's a helpful thread. I hope you feel calmer soon.
 
I both love and hate Christmas. I love watching how excited my kids get, but Christmas was a disaster when I was a kid. My mother could be so cruel at Christmas. So far this year, Christmas feels better. We'll see.

((((((((((((((((((Hugs to all)))))))))))))))))

If you celebrate it, Merry Christmas.
If not, know that I am thinking of you and sending lots of love.

Thanks,
Kerry
