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

[ms spock]

Feel really tired.

 

[Definitely..maybe]

Feeling down, but lately meds have been helping more than I thought possible, so I'm feeling like I can feel better again soon.

 

[DMerish]

Sad. Deeply sad.

So all over the place with feelings today. I really struggled with SI so I rang the Suicide Callback Service and the woman as great she got that I manage SI a lot but that I don't want to get back to where I was in October. I had a panic attack and rang lifeline. I rang the Mental Health Team to let them know I needed to be in contact over the Xmas period. Being as responsible and proactive as possible. Had an anxiety attack in the shop and a panic attack before I came into the house. So it is all coming up. I feel pleased I got through the day.

I went to see my psychiatrist. She wants me on a therapeutic dose of the Endep.

I went to give a friend moral support for a few hours and sit with her and Aunt who is a lovely woman but unfortunately has dementia.

Absolutely exhausted.

What am I feeling today?

Um... Better. :joyful: Ridiculous. :confused: Basically okay, maybe a little bit overwhelmed. :O_o:

Happy. My husband is going to come spend a little time with me without the kids. That will break up my day of loneliness.

Today I feel...
sluggish
out of sorts
blah..lol

 

[DMerish]

Still deeply sad - it's apt to stick around a while.

Today I feel mixed up and ineffectual... but I could turn it around at any moment. It's an edgy kind of thing, which side of the fence will I fall on today?

I am having mixed feelings; about some lifestyle changes I need to make and I have been having crying spells related to the loss of my father on Dec 21 of last year (and more recently, an old friend who has passed on). I just feel so much loss and sorrow today.

The holidays are a difficult time for many and I suppose I am no exception to this. The cold and darkness (lack of sunlight) makes me feel sad too, as do the bare trees.

It helps that I can speak about my difficulty and frustration here! I feel (a sense of belonging), that I am among friends who understand and that helps me a lot!!! To know that I do not have to go it alone, is a true blessing!

Hopefully as I grieve and explore my feelings they will turn more positive in nature. ...Healing hugs for all who accept/want/need them!!!

Healthy grieving Lionheart is 3 years unless one gets stuck. Holidays, yeah they are affected. The best I could manage regarding grieving is determining not to get stuck. It was enough.
