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

Today I'm feeling very grateful for GreenFrog2. Your reply has really put me at ease with how I was feeling the other day. It feels really good to have someone understand. Thank you so much :hug:

(((Phoenix))) I get like this. I go and do something successfully, and I just want to wallow in the success of it.

I must admit that many people tend to take my response as a rejection, but I don't have it in me to reassure them that I am not rejecting them, that I just need to keep my life pretty simple at the moment. So it can be a bit of a double edged sword, but I guess that interpersonal relations are like that.

When I heard such things, my instant response was to help them anyways. Don't know why. But yes, I would love to talk with them, perhaps they let out their tiredness through that or get empty. That might make them feel some peace.

I am not sure this would work or not.

I understand your whole post.

Today I was feeling good and hopeful. And then I had an appointment at a clinic to find a new T. They gave me a formula to fill out and the questions triggered me at the end, and I wanted to tell the receptionist something but she cut me off, so I left upset and scattered.

And then I forgot to stamp my ticket on the Metro and they caught me! And he wanted to see my ID, but I don't carry my ID around with me, because it is my passport, but he said that he would call the police, then he started getting nicer and I payed part of the fine and have to pay the rest later. Almost had a panic attack in the station and I am all shaky, but I'm home and everything is okay, and I have to start thinking of good things again. Challenge for the day. :bag:
 
I'm feeling a little better now, the pain killers are doing their job, I've just taken another 2. Darling H is going to vacuum the lounge for me.

I have walked the dogs (very short walk and very owie) and been to the butcher. Driving and getting in and out of the car is painful and it was quite a performance getting my leg over the bath tub to have a shower;).

Now I just need to bake banana muffins ahead of my candle party tonight. I doubt there will be many of us but at least the ones who will be there are friends.
 
Conflicted

I have been debating with myself since yesterday about calling to see my counselor. It's almost like 'pulling teeth' to get me to go in yet once she closes the door I'm okay (is that weird?).

Right now I'm just trying to decide if I need to go in or not, it's getting to be a really stressful time for me with exams and New Year's is coming up (a time of year I'd rather forget). I don't know, I don't want to go in for no reason--could trying to avoid escalation be a good reason?
 
I woke at 4.30am after having an awful nightmare, played some music and attempted some course work, cried like a baby for an hour, pulled myself together, sent children to school, cried like a baby again, tried to lie down, no idea if I slept or not, woke up with a noisy head again, feeling very flat today and a bit shouty. My support worker cancelled so that made me feel better I don't have to talk about bad men today
 
I am excited, I may get my camera today. I will have to learn how to use it. I am a techno illiterate. I will have the guy at the store explain everything to me. I am feeling excited. I have been waiting for this since we could not post pictures anymore.
