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

[LaurieJ]

I am feeling a little lost today. I'm having trouble leaving the house to go exercise because I know the community center will be packed with people. And I really don't like to be in crowded buildings. Just my past interfering with my present. I thought EMDR took care of this one. Maybe I'll just ride the exercise bike at home today or go for a walk around the neighborhood. I feel the anxiety building and think I need to take my medication on which I cannot drive.

Completely out of sorts. Lack of focus and energy. Forgetful.

Ask and you shall receive .... ((((:hug:))))

((((Bladkbird Rising))) An extra one for good measure. ;)

Here is another for you :hug: Actually it is mutual...I needed one too, so thanks!

Thank you Froggie Albatross and Pottershand :hug:. I've been having a hard time since yesterday and really needed those hugs :).

Today I feel grateful for being heard and getting hugs when I really needed them. I'm still having a hard time from yesterday though too. I had a nightmare last night and woke up with that awful feeling that feels like it won't go away. I feel depressed and I feel like isolating. In fact I've isolated myself in my room for now. I'm actually starting to feel like I'd rather give up and suppress everything again and just go back to being numb.

I am feeling weirded out because I burned the heck out of myself when I was putting a cast iron skillet in the oven from the stove. Old patterns kicked in and over rode the "drop it" signals. During my childhood and first marriage that would have warranted a beating. Now I've got burns. Third time this week. Not doing too well attending to household things this week.

I'm trying hard to normalize the 2nd job. At a cost apparently. :unsure:

Being numb is no way to go through life Black Bird. Trust me.

I know. It's how I've lived most of my life. But I'm really struggling with these feelings things. And sometimes it feels like just way too much. That and the memories. Sorry I don't mean to threadjack. Private messaging might be a better place to chat if you'd like to.

I am not sure what to tell. I can't decide that am I tired or exhausted. It feels like today I worked a lot in positive direction. That's it.

Optimist.

I am feeling pretty darn good today. I plan on taking it easy for another day. I am trying not to worry about the crises situations in my life and I am having some success with it. It really helps to let go of the negatives in my life.

I totally need a hug. This is really hard

Actually it is mutual...I needed one too, so thanks!

((( BlackbirdRising ))) ((( Pottershand ))) A nice bouquet of gentle, encouraging hugs to the two of you.

A bit disgruntled, as my boyfriend said his hip was hurting and kind of snapped at me instead of being his usual nice and polite self when I suggested that we just chat on the phone for a bit. He wanted to rest, said he didn't even go out for breakfast as he normally does. I understood he wasn't feeling well, but that was no reason to get snappy with me. I just called to see how he was doing and see if he wanted to come for a little visit this afternooon. Obviously he wasn't up to that. Oh well...
