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

[amethist]

I am feeling that if I don't get off this ride of being a supporter for a few days very very soon, I will drown in it all.

Time to think about booking a few days away on my own.

@amethist That is proactive and creative thinking.

It is good to know your own limits and boundaries.

Feeling a bit better today.

Yay! All my worrying worked! lol

Today I am feeling like I want to get things done around the house. I know that's not really a feeling but I don't know what the feeling is behind it. I bought some things to help organize my house and I've been going through and donating a lot of things I don't use. I guess I feel, um, still can't place it.

I really didn't want to get out of bed today. I want it to be a sleep day. Yesterday, I didn't want today to be that. I'm sure the grayness outside isn't helping motivate me. I feel just kind of blah. Hopefully it will go away soon.

Exhausted and burnt out, from the emotional weight, I am carrying and my sleep debt. Even though, last night, I managed to get almost 6.5 hours of solid sleep. Feel like, I am sleepwalking through today. Not a good sign. Tomorrow morning, I see my nurse practitioner, for the first time, in several months, to connect with her and find out about the mini psych assessment done, last month.

Am with you, @Britt.f7 , about wanting to sleep the day away.

I'm much better in myself, had a quiet day but I keep expecting it to go wrong. :rolleyes:

I'm aching all over as if I have worked out, which I haven't. I don't know if it is low iron or calcium which it has been before or something else. Oh well, plod on Crafty!

Just remembered...I had to drive into Manchester last night, in the dark and along two very busy motorways. I was terrified and my sat-nav decided not to talk to me!!!!! BUT...I did it and I got back safely - phew! I have to do it all over again next week!

I feel like I'm meant to be happy, or at lest content. But I feel like I'm just existing in a physical sense, without really connecting to my emotions :/

I'm also hungry, one hour to go before dinner!

 

[roaminggnome]

I am numb. My body feels numb. I hope I'm not going to dissociate. Okay time for grounding techniques.

 

[franciemarnie]

I am tired. Hard to know what I feel when feelings are not extreme. I feel kind. And like I just want a break. Not sure what to do today because I am so tired. I spent a lifetime with Emergencies! (Needing tending.) No emergency now. No big wind to shoulder against. Weird having nothing to "fight".

 

[fly away home]

This morning I was feeling scared, frustrated, anxious and on edge with the knowledge that I had the day off and was going to be home on my own. I had placed high expectations on myself to get into the studio and draw. These days in the studio are rare.

Now that I am on my own I am allowing myself to go a little deeper and I see that I am feeling alone and sad. Probably why I was so up tight earlier, just pushing the sadness down so I could get girlie off to preschool and not crumble in front of her. I had to apologise to her a few times for my behavior. I was not very tolerant of her desire to place stickers all over her face rather than get her shoes on just before we walked out the door

I feel like a bad mum.
I feel emotional
I feel scared of myself
I feel despondent
I feel isolated
I feel useless

I'm not sure what direction to take in life and there are big decisions I need to make but I am hiding from them.

I am terrified of the future.

I am feeling kind of low and depressed today. Yesterday at the doctors I got a flu shot and have been experiencing flu symptoms all fever, chills and aches and pains. I woke up exhausted.

Britt sometimes I wish I could sleep the day away. I can understand how you may feel about it. I hope things improve for you very soon. I know what you mean about gloomy days. They make me feel down too.
