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

Feeling 'washed out' and tired. Also feels like I'm on an emotional swing

Be kind to yourself. Question what it is you need. Self soothing, tools, support, foood or sleep. Hope you find it what ever it is!

I feel anxiety that my husband will come home today, and like every day...he will ask me what I did today. I do nothing.

Are you really being truthful to yourself about what you did today? Not saying that's not ok cause I have had many of these days. Be kind to yourself. Try writing a list of what you did. You were on the forum today. That is self help and therapy. I found keeping a list helped me see what I needed to work on and how much I really did. Just a suggestion if its ok?

deedlerock: In Sweden we have a expression that says: "Shared pain is half the pain, shared joy is double joy". (Maybe it's a expression that exist nationwide, I don't know) SO: I think it's good to share your pain and sorrows! And ok to "whine" about stuff thats bothering you. But I recognize the feeling! Sending you a hug too, if that's ok! (((deedlerock )))

I feel zoned out. It is from the pain pills. I will get through this I hope. My next test isn't until the 19th, then I see the surgeon again. I am getting a 2nd opinion, but they haven't called yet and its been about 2 weeks. This is like torture.

I am having a rough day today. I am trying to remain calm with everything going on. My husband is having a bad day for the dementia. He is confused and agitated from what is going on. I encouraged him to stick to his routine and he is doing alot better now. I have the grandkids here watching movies. We locked the doors to try to be safe. My daughter had to go and drop off the rental and pick her car up. I hope it does not take too long. I am trying to remain calm and not worry.

I'm feeling somewhat accomplished. Had a long chat with my sister. Reached my goal with the tree skirts. Still have things to do to them but that has to wait until another day. Drinking the last of my wine, than no more. Can only be good for my mood and weight I'm sure.

but they haven't called yet and its been about 2 weeks

I'd call. I think that's too much of a wait. I hate offices like that! I hope, if you decide to wait, that they call you soon.

Today has been most physically challenging and I am feeling unwell, worn-out and sad.

"Shared pain is half the pain, shared joy is double joy".

I like this - being here and sharing my pain and helped me immeasurably - can't even being to describe how much.
Even being able to share small joys helps me to appreciate them - they are valuable and now I don't dismiss them. And, I love it when a friend share a joy of there's - it always makes me feel some joy as well.

Otherwise I am feeling just plain worn out. Everyday is such a challenge and I keep forgetting about the light at the end of the tunnel - I am aiming to have most of my problems mostly sorted out by the end of the year. It's a big ask as there is so much to attend to, especially within myself. But that's over 300 days of making some small progress each day! If I can do this, if I can bear the pain and confusion and deal with the hideousness of dealing with my PTSD symptoms and issues just a bit each day, then by the end of the year I could be the new "me".

If it was not so scary I would be looking forward to meeting her......

"Baby Steps" it's from the movie What about Bob with Bill Murray, it's funny, nothinhg like a good laugh especially about a man driving his therapist crazy
