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

[Lionheart]

Physically, I am weak as a newborn kitten, but mentally and emotionally I am light-hearted and care-free. Having beautiful weather, so I am going for a leisurely stroll this afternoon, (if I can gather up enough energy). Have been on bed rest past 48 hours (along with 7 days of antibiotics) and I finally feel health returning, so I really want to get out and enjoy the outdoors today.

Hugs for all who are struggling,
Lion

I'm a bundle of nerves today. This afternoon I'm seeing my M.D., there was some problem with my blood tests last time and I misunderstood the letter- I didn't schedule an appointment about it right away. She's going to be upset with me! Hopefully I can stay calm this time, we figured out that waiting in the lobby raises my blood pressure into the high range.

I'm proud and exhausted. I finished my graduate school application and am ready to mail it tomorrow. What a scary thought! At some point my life needs to move forward. And if I don't get into that university I'll keep trying until one accepts me. I'm just a little concerned but enjoying my elevated mood.

In quite a lot of pain and discomfort tonight. Frustrating gripping cramps in my legs. Ugh.

Very fragile.

I made a big move in therapy today. I trusted and told my therapist that I'm very frustrated with life because for years I was told I was going to die due to health issues. I was told this when I was 15. despite that I had made peace with that and everything that I would miss. No career, no relationship, no kids etc somehow I was at peace with that. I was content to die. Funny thing is I didn't die. And now... Now my psyche is all messed up. I was preparing for death. I never prepared for life. At age 22 I find myself completely at a loss what to do with myself.

So...

I'm very fragile today... I think a good cry is in order...

Deeply depressed.

 

[ms spock]

I feel pleased that I made big progress yesterday with my psychriatrist.

I am feeling a bit anxious today.

 

[ms spock]

I am feeling very, very stressed and very very anxious. So I am taking myself off to exercise.

 

[BlackbirdSinging]

I'm angry. No. Wait. I'm full of rage right now. I can't even explain it. I'm just so full of liquid fire like anger that I want to just scream. I want to break something.

 

[ms spock]

I exercised and that was good. Felt a little bit better.

Then felt utterly miserable and then okay again. Coming off the meds has brought up all the feelings.

OK, this may sound a little "out there", but I really hate changes in barometric pressure. My body hurts and I can't help to wonder what effect it may have mentally?? Probably the mental effects are do to the physical discomfort, but Winter Storm Wanda is playing havoc with me today. :(

When I listen to my body, I feel sore and a pain around my heart. When I listen to my brain, it says I feel depressed and worried. When I actually use my brain to combat the feelings, I know if I take a painkiller I will feel less sore and if I don't mope about or think about the parts of my life I have no control over I will feel better. So, I'm away to go and feel better.

Sending out a hug to all those who have offered hugs recently :hug:, and a daft face :wacky: to all those who aren't feeling good today, in the hope that you may smile.
