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

[Lionheart]

I am feeling the effects of tramadol and flexaril (sp?), but I am still having pain from muscle spasms in my neck, arms and shoulders. It is making me feel irritable, but overall I am doing rather well despite the pain. *(I'm stubborn that way):roflmao: If this continues into tomorrow I may have to see a doctor and get further treatment.

Anyhoo, :whistling: I am still feeling happy and light-hearted :happy::giggle::laugh::playful: (even though I am hurting physically). I spent the day with family and friends and I feel loved :inlove:,understood and at peace.

I'm sending healing hugs to all who are struggling
...along with the reminder that things can get better.:tup:

Wishing all peace, healing, and comfort,
Lion

I feel: awful because I'm depleted.
Depleted for numerous reasons.
Angry because I can't manage all this.
Scared because lately far too much tends to be scary.
Irritable because I'm feeling entirely to worn, depleted and overworked. Also, because I'm just miserably overwhelmed.
Sad.
Overwhelmed!

I feel tired of being the one who is always sick...

Same here: I feel sadness and exhaustion, because yesterday evening I've got my first suppurative maxillary/ frontal sinusitis during the autumn/winter season. The pain in my face is massive. And I'm fighting chill and fever. And when running a fever I have to face heart problems which then often lead to oedema in legs and lungs.

Feel quite angry at my bloody weak body which isn't able anymore to activate the needed immune defence, after more than 20 years of these f*!@ing suppurative infections, tons of antibiotics and 6 surgical interventions. I really don't know from where to take the energy, because when running a fever, I can't sleep. Am very sad!:cry:

@SweetLullaby Feeling for you, the pain I have been having is from my sinuses. No infection just pain and inflammation - awful; I do feel for you and wish you strength.

I am also sick of being sick. I have twisted my knee and it hurts like mad and have absolutely no energy.

My anxiety levels are better today and I enjoyed talking to a forum friend yesterday.

After reading some responses to a posting I am feeling less guilty, though still some emotional pain. I'm really thankful for this forum.

I'm tired, which is okay because I got my stuff done for today. Chilly from going out to do that stuff, and thinking I feel a cold coming on. Still depressed, starting to consider that 'default mode'.

Very paradoxical today. :sleep:

I fell ill earlier this evening; sore throat, fever, chills, body aches etc. I think I may have the flu. (However, I did get a flu shot a couple weeks ago, so I am hoping it will be short lived). I am up now with insomnia and I am feeling really crappy; weak, tired, depressed, sad, irritable, etc. :sick::grumpy::meh:

I'm going to attempt to pamper myself; drink fluids, take Tylenol, eat soup, use a heating pad, etc and maybe, if I can get some sleep, I will feel better in the morning.

@Lionheart777 I hope you heal quickly. Plenty of rest if you can. You can still get a different strain of the flu after a flu shot. Doesn't seem fair though does it?!

 

[Lionheart]

Thank you so much Britt.f7,

I am feeling a little better this afternoon, but still going to take it easy and pamper myself till I am over this completely. You are right, it doesn't seem fair. I am not the best patient in the world either so that doesn't help matters much. :meh:

The weather has turned kinda cold here and I think we are looking at highs in the 50's, but at least the sun is shining and that helps a lot. :) I feel hopeful to be back on my feet soon.

:hug:
hugs,
Lion

I'm feeling a bit more ill today- not much room for emotions, just fever and exhaustion.

@Spiderallis take care of yourself if you can. Plenty of rest. Seems to be going around.
