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

I feel like I'm going crazy from needing to be held and comforted by my mother and knowing it's not going to happen unless I open myself up to being hurt by her again...but she isn't the same woman I once knew and I don't even want her to hug me any more. I want the mother I knew when I was a teenager, before she turned into a ghoul. I'm really lonely, and had a good cathartic cry at my massage therapists today. Sadness was overwhelming, but I am glad I got some of it out. Feeling crampy, like I'm about to start bleeding, which doesn't help matters. Just really sad and sick of being alone.
 
Guess contented, would be the best way, to describe, how I feel right now, as today is my 8th day on the new med, and for the first time, since starting it, I am headache free and not sleeping every waking moment of the day. Today is, the first day in 5 days, I have been able to leave my apartment, and be involved with my life. Still have the other side-effects, from this med and hope they disappear fast, as I want my quality of life, back.
 
I am feeling triggered this morning but making my recovery my top priority.

I feel fear and am fighting the what ifs. I am trying to solve a bad problem for myself. I think I resolved this problem and am not involved any more.
