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

@KP the nut, @EverOnly358, and @franciemarnie I wanted to deeply thank you for your kind and very helpful answers to my post #19230. I wanted to thank you earlier, but sometimes I can't find the words...

I feel really disappointed and hopeless: Last Thursday my ENT-doctor (Ear Nose Throat) gave me 2 new medicaments. One of them, a combined nasal spray (which is brand new on the market), did me really no good.:( I had a circulatory collapse on Monday evening and I experienced an extreme seasickness, severe pain in my eyes, and a strong light sensitivity since last Friday night. :depressed: So I had to stop taking this medicaments. My doc was deeply disappointed, for he had high hopes, that after 20 years of chronic suppurative sinusitis and 6 surgical interventions, he had finally found a remedy, that would help.

This makes me sometimes feel deeply hopeless. For it seems as it doesn't meant to be, that there's a way I can fully recover from this insidious sh!t. But on the other hand, I should feel like the winner of the biggest lottery prize; for I was the 1 out of 10'000 people who got the "severe side effects" of this new medicament. Hooray! :mad:

@SweetLullaby,
Sorry to hear the bad news, I wish you were feeling better and hope everything works out for you soon!!!

I am feeling pretty bad physically although my blood sugar is almost within normal range, so I imagine something else is going on. It would be so easy for me to get depressed right now, but I am tired and think I will just go on to bed.

My best to all who are struggling.
 
@SweetLullaby - I am so sorry. How awful. That's so cute and funny you looked at the notable side of your achievement so to speak. Where would we be without our sense of humor?That is when I feel all is lost, when I cannot see the absurdity anymore. Not that you are laughing, but you get what I mean. I so wish I could help.

As for me, I am just tired and hope to sleep tonight. Burned out at a minor, non-dangerous temporary level. Physically beat. But content underneath.

Hugs to all who could use one or more. I am leaving 152 of them here. I have more in storage if needed.
 
@franciemarnie, Thank you for the apple cider vinegar recipe. I take it since 10 days and I feel that it is helpful (and yummy! :wideeyed: Yes I LOVE vinegar!:woot: ).
Where would we be without our sense of humor?
Simply nowhere... It's the essence of life to me.
Not that you are laughing, but you get what I mean
Well...In fact I DID laugh when writing my special achievement. I deeply appreciate your humor and your way to look at things and how you express them.

@Lionheart777, thank you for your kind wishes, I can really feel them. Sleep well and peacefully dear Lion.:sleep:
 
Very angry for what happened to me. Very upset about being blamed and minimized for what happened to me. And very tired and upset. I wish I had something positive to say for once. I still feel I am being blamed for what happened. Plus I am sad again thinking about my dog and my airplanes all at once I really feel like drinking tonight.
 
@Ed Norton - You have good reason to be angry and upset. I'm not going to say don't drink. But think it thru. At least for me, the mornings after we're not worth it. I would wake in absolute terror an hour and a half after passing out and the twelve hours after I would be in agony. Alcohol floods us with stress hormones the morning after. But I know there are moments that feel unbearable. Do you have any Honeymooner episodes recorded you could watch? In any event, I hope you feel better soon.

I am trying to spool down. Just stopped working and am vibrating from hours of adrenalin hyper vigilant focus. Slight headache. Sense of danger narrowly averted. But all is fundamentally well.

Always these dual realities. No danger, but sense of danger. Tiring.
