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

Agitated. Irritated. Impatient. I'm doing a whole lot of all or nothing and always or never type of thinking. I feel like I'm going to lose my patience and just start yelling at the next person in the house who asks me another ridiculous question.
 
Exhausted, as I only managed 3 solid hours of sleep, without being interrupted by one of my cats.

Excited, because today marks my 5th anniversary of overcoming part of my anxiety regarding needles, and the start of the Estrogen portion of my hormonal replace programme.

Anxious, as I have an appointment with my nurse practitioner, on Monday, which I have several issues that need to be addressed and resolved.

Write the issues down. I always forget when I get to my doc's.

Today I feel anxious, since a yellow-jacket was trying to sting me through my hoodie and I am allergic. It did get my skin a bit, and I have a rash, and I'm itchy, but no big reaction. Yay. I am also happy because I'm going to visit my mom this weekend. I'm stressed about therapy today, although I am always stressed about therapy on therapy days.

Today is important since I am angry. I am hardly ever angry, its not safe. But I am, and I am safe.

I already have done that, Monster. Just need to remember to bring it with me, for Monday's appointment.

I really hate PTSD and GAD. I feel terrible.
There too many days, which I can relate too feelings, BlackbirdRising. Please be gentle to yourself, on days like this. You're worth the efford, even if your PTSD and GAD say otherwise.

Am feeling less tired after a 90 minute nap, with Star, by my side.
 
I'm not sure. I went off an expensive medicine about two weeks ago that I believe was helping. I'm so so today. The med nurse heard why I went off them, the expense, and offered to give me samples because he doesn't want to see me back in that dark place. I took them, for now, but felt uneasy about it. He said he didn't want to go against my morals, just worried about me, and said, while we can do it we will do it if I'm okay with it. So he gave me samples and then some extra for a different med I refuse to go off. I wish the meds didn't work. Though, like the therapist says, I should give myself credit for what I have accomplished.

It shouldn't have to come down to a choice between the medicine you need and a roof over your head. Just all adds up.
 
I am feeling very tired, but happy. :) My sister and I ironed out a misunderstanding. I am grateful that me and my sister are close. We have a very small family and her love and support mean so much to me!!! :inlove: ( I feel loved).

Therapy is going well, depression seems to be under control, anxiety is consistently low, and I seem to be doing really well on my 'new" medication(s). I feel that I am blessed. :angelic:

Healing hugs for all who want or need one!!!:hug:
