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

Sad. Earlier I felt apprehensive. Then I felt happy being with my sister, though we did talk about what the nutritionist said. Teary eyed with the nutritionist. Teary when talking about it with my sister. Teary now. I hate when things you don't think are going to effect you knock you on your butt. Think I'm going to have a hot shower, a glass of wine, candles, and a good cry.
 
I woke up feeling good from sleeping well and from the self soothing of the dvd background noise. Then my inner critic kicked in that I wasn't doing enough. This is not rational as I did a lot yesterday.

So I had a chat in the chat room.

Then I thought I had better go for a walk rather than let that stuff reverberate around in me for the rest of the day. So I did and that was good. Lots of little tears and bits of grief came up as I was walking along. Movement seems to equal feelings for me.

I feel a bit better now. Some stuff released.
 
Am quite vigilant at the moment.

Waiting to see if I hear back from my brothers. Nervous about some work. Struggling to identify emotions. Today is my fist day totally cigarette free - that's the plan anyway! Am sure this is underlying other issues - I have inadvertently ended up with far more on my plate than I planned. No idea if, or how, I will cope.

Must stick to my usual routine and see how I cope. I did lots of positive affirmations when I woke, but could not speak with my inner child - I think she is too scared to come out because of the family stuff going on? Now I will go for a walk and meditate. Expect I will be back here soon after that!

Feeling apprehensive, but not all that panicky........................
 
Had my hot shower/bath, glass of wine and tears. I'm tired now.

Pensive in my thoughts. Got a call that my old therapist will be back on Wednesday(she was out for medical reasons) and did I want to make an appointment. Have appointment with new therapist in same office. Not sure what to do. Do I keep the new appointment or go back to the old therapist? As nice as the old therapist was I'm not sure she was helping. Only been seeing her about 6 months.

Ugh too much confusion right now!

So do I - especially when they come at me from the side, and I don;t know abut them until they have knocked me onto my butt.

Glad that you have been able to be kind to yourself - hopefully after a sleep you will have the answer you need.

:hug: GF.
