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

@Ms Spock, I hope you can find other ways to calm yourself and soothe yourself and I'm hoping you feel better soon.

Calming and soothing of the self is very important. I would like to improve my skills about this as this currently they are poor.

I'm feeling very nervous and uncertain and unable to deal with complications of life today. :unsure: There were certain plans in place, and then everything got switched around, and it drives me crazy! :confused: I do best when there's a plan... I hate it when all the plans fly out the window. :eek: Everyone expects me to know what to do, and how to do it, and when everything has to happen... but how can I do those things if the rug gets pulled out from under me? :dead: I'm trying hard to just deal with life as it is... but, well, that doesn't work either... if I don't have a plan and keep everyone on track, then at the end of the day everyone's upset AT ME because they didn't get what they wanted or what they expected. Frustrating! I'm feeling really frustrated. :banghead: And tired of this! :hungover: And irritated. :shifty:

Can you calmly, without blaming anymore point out the complications that occurred today, explain how that changed the planned program?

Hear what people are saying perhaps do some reflective listening. Then ask for some problem solving - what suggestions would you have to prevent things going haywire if you had to handle this situation?

I am feeling good, had contented night watching movie with husband. Now apprehension filters in. Will it be no sleep until dawn? Usually. Have movie to watch. In between riveting books right now. No obsessive thought last few hours. Physically without pain. Tense tummy.

@Ms Spock - love your 18th c heroine. I can survive anything if I have access to sense of humor. It gives me perspective.

I have crazy nerves when it comes to dealing with calling anyone re business matters. I cancelled a paper in November but realized today they charged my credit card as if I didn't so have to call tomorrow. I psyche myself up beforehand and try to breathe. Got to call another place that said Free Delivery, but nyet. It's a great accomplishment after.

No obsessive thoughts is great! I had real problems with that last year. No physical pain is pretty good as well.

A sense of humour is important and I have a good one though wouldn't have known it last year.

Got to write the accomplishments down and cherish them. Note the work that went into preparation and really think it through. The success that is. Perhaps use the successes to replace the obsessive thoughts? That might work.
 
I was startled awake. No iea what woke my, but I come up swinging and ready to kill. I feel aggressive today, not assertive but aggressive. Ready to put people in thier place and force them to respect my boundaries or leave. One problem, this aggressive attitude and especially any behavior is not acceptable at my job, where the people that done repsect my boundaries are. I feel alot of energy, but still no hope. I am strong in anger and indignation today. Soo a small red ball of anger wrapped in a big black ring of agressivness, wrapped in medium blue of hopelessness and the ever persistant medium yellow rings of anxiety. I find it easier to relate feelings to colors...
