What am I feeling today? :cautious: First of all, I'm annoyed that this question is not getting any easier to answer! :mad: It's still so hard to figure out what I'm feeling. Physically, I'm okay, I guess. I've been going through this weird thing for the past week or so, where one minute I...

What am I grateful for today? :cautious: Chocolate banana smoothies. :hungry: That I was able to find some time in the day for myself. :wideeyed: That there's fun stuff on the calendar this evening. :joyful:

Well... today was the first day since I got my gym membership that I actually went to the gym. I'm so annoyed with myself! :mad: Right after the 28th of February, I ended up getting a really bad cold, which left me in bed for almost a week. Then I spent the next week getting caught up with...

What are my goals for today? :cautious: Get to the gym without too much anxiety. :joyful: Done! Yay! Take the kids out for a movie and dinner. :) Remember to stop holding my breath, to relax, to breathe throughout the day. :wideeyed: Try to find some time for a sewing project I NEED to...

What am I thinking? :cautious: Life is pretty f-ing unfair. I hate colds. I hate this stupid fight to feel better with the entire deck stacked against me. I am frustrated and annoyed with life. :confused: I hate that it's so embarrassingly clear that I vacillate from manic to tired to...

What are my goals for today? :cautious: Hell if I know. I'm a little lost at the moment. :unsure: I've got a real bad cold, I can barely breathe, and being unable to breathe is a trigger for me and it throws me into flashbacks. Plus my husband and I are fighting. It's all really screwed...

What am I grateful for today? :cautious: A roof over my head. :bag: A good dinner to eat last night. There was soup! :hungry: People with a cold are supposed to have soup. I had soup. Air to breathe. :joyful: And I kinda like smileys. :wideeyed:

What am I feeling today? :cautious: First off, sick. I have another bleep-ed-bleep-bleep cold! :mad: The coincidence of it all really pisses me off. I get to where I want to be, doing what I feel needs to be done... and no matter how I try to pass that hurdle, something always interferes...

Yes, I kinda wish there were two chats as well! It's very hard and stressful to be supportive to people who are really struggling and are sharing in chat. I can only do a limited amount of that before it really takes it out of me. So, I completely get what you're saying! :hug: What are my...

What am I feeling today? :cautious: I'm okay. I'm eager to just rest and relax all day. I pushed myself too hard this week. I have to avoid that cycle of adrenalization and collapse. It's a great distraction, sure... to run, run, run like a chicken with it's head cut off :chicken:, get...

Hey, I've been there. I'm starting to like normal days more... even though everyone else's normal is so totally weird for me! For me, I just keep believing that I'm making progress and things are going to get better. I have to. I'm so glad you had a good day!! :joyful: I've got my fingers...

:joyful: I'm grateful that things are basically running along smoothly (I'm trying so hard not to be anxious about all the things that need to get done.) :hungry: I'm grateful for breakfast! :D I'm grateful that we have everything we need and so many things we want. We're really lucky...

What am I feeling today? :unsure: Tired. A little rundown. (Going to rest up today, as much as possible.) Hungry. (Ha!) :wideeyed: :eek: Anxious. Overall, though, things are okay, so basically, I'm feeling content. :joyful: I'm going to focus on the content part.

So... last night, we ran around doing a bunch of errands, and there was lots of walking... probably all together over an hour. Maybe more. So that was good! :laugh: Then later I vegged out and watched TV on ABC. :rolleyes: Gotta love all the drama. Today I did go to the gym and I did get...

How did I do yesterday? :cautious: Well, I did get exercise in... 70 minutes of walking at the track, plus a bunch of stretching. No problems with any aches or pains today. I made sure Thursday ran according to schedule... even though I had to put up with my daughter asking about 300 times...

LOL! Angiety! Been there! ;) I wish I had some advice, but I really don't. Expressing any type of anger freaks me out. But I do know that it's okay to be feeling whatever you're feeling. :hug: What am I feeling today? :cautious: Hmmm. It's complicated, I guess. I'm feeling weird...

:joyful: I'm grateful for my wonderful husband and my beautiful kids. :) I'm grateful for our pets, they're adorable and hysterical (two Guinea pigs and two hamsters). :D I'm grateful that my life is so good and so easy. I have everything I need and lots of things I want. :cool: I'm...

What am I feeling today? :cautious: I'm feeling the need to keep this short... or at least try! :alien: I'm feeling okay. A little tired, a little annoyed, a little upset because of flashbacks and memories and things coming to the surface... but overall, okay, almost content. :joyful: I'm...

Hahaha! I'm glad you got the joke... because after the fact I was thinking I took it a little too far. I really do have the stupid sense of humor of like a 9 year old. ;) LOL! :wtf: Hey, years ago, I fell down some stairs (total accident... I'm a klutz) and I landed on my tailbone. It was...

LOL! @Definitely..maybe, in heels... yes, definitely a workout! I remember when I was working, running around downtown in heels. I'm glad those days are over! Sounds like your day was really fun! :) You're on, for the next dance party! So... yesterday I did end up walking around Target...

Let's see... I did have a pretty good day yesterday. I did leave my room, I made lunch, I rested, we went to Target... but I didn't make dinner. By dinner time I was totally out of it. Exhausted and scatterbrained, having trouble focusing. Not unusual given the flashbacks and other stuff...

I'm grateful for my family. :chicken: I'm grateful for the community center nearby which has a library, a track and a gym. :tup: I'm grateful I'm feeling as well as I am right now. :happy: I'm grateful my family is understanding and they just laugh (kindly) when I stomp around upset. It...

That's what this thread is for... so I think you should post just as much as you need to! I just... I wanted to say I SO empathize with that feeling... like, what I went through, it can't be possible, did I just make this stuff up, am I crazier than I think I am? And I constantly have to...

LOL! Totally get it @Definitely..maybe! :laugh: And I've got to charge my iPod Nano... it has a pedometer and somewhere I have a something like a watch band for it, so that would be cool. Because it is surprising how much walking happens when you're not even thinking about exercising...

Yesterday I did manage to work through my feelings, get ready and leave my bedroom, go outside, go shopping, go to the movies and in general rescue the day from a PTSD-induced depressive funk. Yay for me! Watch as I stick my arm straight in front of me, turn my hand palm up, and then go ahead...
