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

[Srain]

Absolutely!! I smoked for 33+ years and quit, this after my mother smoked 50yrs and quit:eek:..if that 2 pack a day old broad could do I thought I could too! ;)

I feel good, slept like crap but I'm not feeling it. We are taking the Fur Sisters to beach this morning and letting swim around. I haven't been there since last year so this should be fun :)

I'm a bit unsure as to what the imagery that came to mine and my massage therapists mind mean. I saw black crows, and she saw a cemetary:eek:

I don't want to jump to conclusions and think that it is foretelling a literal death, as some deaths can be more symbolic...but it does coincide with this thing with my father??

I don't want to jump to any conclusions...but I do kinda want to paint the scene. Feeling creative, but not motivated.

Feeling annoyed because one 25mg pill of Zoloft later I'm having brain zaps, many of them, and a headache. Damnit! I'm going to sleep now. Day cancelled.

 

[Jen93]

Feeling overwhelmed- it's all so complicated.

Feeling sleepy.

Feeling hopeful- intake session for counselling on Friday May 18th! Yay! Now fingers crossed that I don't dissociate and go loopy because it looks like a principal's/ headmistresses office setting.

I had a flashback for the first time in ages today caused by something I was watching on the TV. I wasn't aware of it until I started to feel anxiety and panic taking hold.

As soon as I was aware of it I instantly grounded myself, told myself it was only a flashback and not real and just got on with it.

That was real progress for me, I haven't done well with flashbacks before, tending to panic and dissociate, but this time I got control and carried on with my day as normal.

I think the EMDR I had over that issue must have worked! :D:tup:

Woo! Well done CraftyCath that's brilliant!

I'm feeling a bit concerned for you freak o nurture.

Brain zaps after only one zoloft? I haven't taken them in a couple of years, but it usually took a while for that to start happening. I guess different peoples brains...?

Hope things improve. I've 'cancelled' many days before for bed...which I should probably go to right now as it's 4:46a.m here and i've been up for an hour and a half now.

Feeling sleepy again.

I am feeling overwhelmed and anxious because I just figured out some terribly important aspects about my complex trauma, but can't figure out how to put it into words. There are dire pressing situations that are triggering and have to be overcome for a real important appointment with my ex and the mediator. My T isn't really helping me figure things out. :eek::cry::eek:

Relieved
Anxious
Tired
Being seperated from my mom and sister is getting easier.

 

[Spiderallis]

Terrified, a few things in the present here-and-now startled me, sent me back into flashback type things. Had to explain to someone I love a lot that I'm afraid to see them right now because I might not see they're behind the things I'm imagining if I lash out. Told a few people I love em, told those who know not to worry. I'm trying to come back. Grounding didn't work this time and I need more practice learning not to float away. I'll keep trying until I get good at it.

 

[Red Feather]

A bit relieved after getting some advice from a friend. Now I wrote everything out and why things trigger me. It's like I am figuring myself out.

Throughout much of the day and fortunately still, ......I'm feeling very happy, blessed, tired, pleased and still very happy.
