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

[Britt.f7]

So much for feeling good with being validated. Just had a fight with my sister and it did not end well. So I am feeling crappy. I wish I would not let her effect me so much.

Thanks @Anrish and I hope your visit goes well.

I'm tired from trying to convince my dorky dog that she shouldn't run, jump or act like a monkey until she recovers. Had t-time today, so emotionally it's quiet- it takes a day for that to filter through, I'll probably feel a dozen things within an hour tomorrow.

down and frustrated.

I am feeling ok but struggling with faulty thinking and I am doing my best to catch myself and give myself the facts.

 

[Anrish]

Nervous, excited and relieved.

@Anrish - you made it! I hope your trip goes well and you have a super good time there!

I have been feeling down the past several days. It seems that I needed to go back and feel those feelings when I was 22 years old, so many years ago.

It is the morning after my husband's funeral, and everyone leaves. I am alone. I guess I didn't realize at the time how alone I would be, as the family didn't come back to visit.

I buried so much at that time because here I was a widow and also a victim of domestic abuse.

Yesterday, I tripped over something and banged up my foot so I guess I needed to feel some more pain. All I know, I am doing a lot of letting go.

 

[Anrish]

@Let It Be : Thank you so much. I will start to explore the city tomorrow. ...and I will report for sure.

I'm sorry to hear you're having a hard time. Sending you encouraging hugs - if you accept them? :hug:

 

[Let It Be]

@Anrish - looking forward to hearing about what you see and do and eat, so envious:).

Yes, indeed will accept :hug: as I know I am healing so am trusting the process as they say and taking it one day at a time.

 

[Britt.f7]

Excited. My husband is taking the afternoon off to take me to see the movie Spy. It will be nice to spend time with him.

To say I'm down would be an understatement, I haven't felt this low in years, not since the last breakdown. Its scares me that I may be heading that way again.

I told a friend that I was sinking into a depression and didn't even have the inclination to step outside the door, all I got was "well we all have to do things we don't want to." She admits that she just doesn't understand depression, never mind PTSD.

I was reading until 3.30 this morning, only to wake before 6am - 3rd night in a row now. I am eating because I know i have to, I'm not bothering with much else. I don't even have the energy for the panic attacks which are bubbling just below the surface. Can't cry because I'm scared I won't be able to stop.

Yea! I know exactly how that feels, I was there myself quite recently, it's a horrible feeling. Have you got any other friends, or family that could help you out?

Even if it's just having a chat and spend some time with you, I know that would have helped me through that bad spell I had recently, but unfortunately I don't have that, since my wife passed eight months ago, and her family have boycotted me altogether. (Long story)

Try to think of something positive and aim for that, I always try and find one good thing in every day.

Get out of the house, go for a burger or coffee, anything to change your depressing environment, get amongst people, even if means just sitting watching them.

I forced myself to do that, and surprisingly it worked, give it a go, what harm can that do?

Feeling envious of @Britt.f7 going to see Spy, I find Melissa McCarthy hilarious

Going to re watch The Heat and some Gilmore episodes to cheer myself up today :D
