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

Very exhausted and sad as well.

I was just about to write a reply of how I feel when I got a smile on my face. Before I started typing away I felt a lot of things, and happy was not one of them. Thank you for starting a thread on how you feel, because I cant remember the last time someone asked me how I felt, just because.

I feel optimistic for the future, because a stranger cares about other strangers. Thank you for giving me that. Among other things I also feel:

sad
lonely
anxious
unappreciated
lost
confused
humiliated
tired

Feels good just to let it out. Thank you again :)

Feeling ill and I'm frustrated with it.

I went to the doctors and she has ordered a chest x-ray to see if my heart is enlarged as I am breathless and my blood pressure is too high (140; it is usually 110 or under). I also have to have a full blood screen again.

Is it my calcium levels? Is it my iron levels? Is it my heart? Is it just the menopause? Or something else entirely?

Will be standing by your side virtually when you go see the doctor. Sending warm Lighted waves out your way ((((Ms Spock))))

Frustrated cause it's chemo day and there will be insomnia night in front of me with hot spells - no not menopause but «chemopause»

Nervous, because Sunday I read an article that some specialists at University Laval (Quebec city) have found a method to counter PTSD symptoms. There was no mention of the nor which lab and specialists so I called the psychlogy deparment for some informations. The secretary mentionned that she didn't know which of the professors would be in charged as she hasn't heard about it. She checked out the list and found one name of a women that worked on a PTSD project, it turns out it was someone I know from my bac years at the University. I'm waiting her call, sur hope she has answers for me.

Sorry about the chemo Froggie. :(

Just realising that having a visitor is probably not helpful in another way too. I normally only sleep on the sofa and in order to pretend to be normal am staying up until after 5 am (not unusual regardless of others being here) and then going to bed.
Probably not helping that much.

Feeling cut off from my feelings and upside down ish...

«chemopause»

:roflmao: You are so funny Froggie. I hope the 'chemopause' symptoms pass quickly. :hug:

I am in so much pain today and am anxious about going to the hospital tomorrow for a chest x-ray and fasting bloods. Parking there is a nightmare and always stressful (and expensive!) so I will be glad when it is over.

I have been meaning to e-mail a family member who sent me a very snotty letter but have been putting it off. I did it earlier and she deflected my questions about how she treats me saying she loves me. I asked her how she can say she loves someone and then treat them badly and that I wasn't going to put up with it (she previously said she treated me this way because she was going through the menopause :rolleyes::whistling:). I'm looking at my e-mail tab and it looks like she might have replied.:eek:

 

[Froggie]

Glad that I managed to make you laugh ((((CraftyCath)))).

she previously said she treated me this way because she was going through the menopause

Hope this snotty letter situation gets resolved we have enough stress and anxiety to deal with PTSD AND menopause is not an excuse to not use our good sens. Some let go because THEY THINK that's what menopause does bull:poop:

I woke up with a headache and my breathing is not so great today. :(

Exhausted and emotionally spent but somehow still good.

Went to see family doctor....Diagnosis of fibromyalgia confirmed. I'm starting Lyrica to help with pain..finally!!! I feel so much relief and gratitude for my new doctor. Also had an EKG done which came back normal. woot woot :) I'll be starting nicotrol inhaler this weekend, to help me stop smoking. I am all kinds of excited and happy today. :tup:

 

[Froggie]

I feel like :poop: today. Do not want to go to work. I just want to wail and cry, but nothing comes out. I feel like my insides are all torn up, my heart is broken. I feel broken and I'm painfully aware of it. I feel muddled and confused, grief stricken and so so sad...and I have to work 12 hours. How am I going to get through this day? I have to put on a mask as I work in customer service. I need more sleep and I need to cry desperately.
