How's Your Day Been? Each Day is Different, So Make Your Mark Daily

Not at a great spot had depression last night bad. But today i got to treat myself and went to the craft show. I still have to be careful not to let the sadness come and hijack me. Hit a brick wall with my T and having major problems here. It has left me despondent with ever getting help with regard to the mess inside of me and my head. I have CPTSD. If my T can't help me no one can. So what is there left for me, despair and hopelessness.

Good for you for going to a craft show. I should do that.

I've hit brick walls in T but finally got beyond them. Last summer I thought I wasn't going to be able to talk in T ever again and couldn't see what point there could be in continuing. In my case (not saying you should do this, just my situation) I had to take a month off to stop myself from leaving altogether. It was rocky for a while after I went back, but now I've started making progress again.

Have hope. Healing is possible, against all the odds.

I was confronted with a most frightening experience today and I pulled through while keeping it together and discovering what had gone on. The emotional clarity, direction and my assertive responses to today's experience (a mother's worse fears), I did remarkably well dealing with.

Prayers were answered and an additional much smaller reward, yet very much enjoyed, was that I got to re-experience afterwards, characteristics about myself that had been lost following my auto accident a couple yrs. ago. I had feared that such great emotional thought and control and clarity in dealing, during a very, very, very stressful difficult time, was permanetly lost to me.

My day has been going really well. I have been able to feel relaxed after a good night's sleep. Bright and I have played outside in the fresh and crisp air. Nothing has happened. I have been able to stay present.

Had a pervasive sense of loneliness and sadness today, plus it rained and was cold and overcast. Not the best of days.
I am noticing that there is so much sadness that I still carry with me...I worry that other people pick up on that. I also had to use medication today in order to be free of some anxiety and that kinda bums me out. Am tired and in need of a good night's sleep, but am struggling with insomnia.

Still, I have much to be thankful for and tomorrow is a new day, so I will keep positive and pray for a better day tomorrow. ;)

On a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being the best), I'm about a 3. Very tired.

Feeling super-proud of myself for not resorting to unhealthy coping. It was a struggle, but I managed to go to bed and do guided meditation/doze instead.

Today was a alright day. I can't complain.

In addition to my work and a great deal of reading that I did, I also got some time with my son and then my daughter. And, tonight I will sit with my husband over a zombie movie.

Bright and I had a wonderfully relaxing weekend. We went to visit my mom (Bright's Grandma from whom Bright received lots of snacks). Now we're tucked in bed watching another movie and cuddling, as well as playing on the Forum.

Today was today and though it was far from being a great day, it felt like a great day. I have a lot to be thankful for and likely more then I even ever recognize.

I went to Lowes to get some filters for my furnace. But forgot the paper for the size at home. GRRR

Needless to say I didn't get them yet.

There's some stress, huh. I find it beyond annoying to go to such lengths and then need to turn around and go home empty handed. It happens all the time everywhere, hope the frustration though passes quickly for you and better yet that it works out for you soon and next time Sandra.

Lowe's can be a real pain in the butt to begin with, IMO.
