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

Hugs, Grace and Seedling

I'm OK, but feel really unstable, like I could go down easy if anything gives me a little push. The guilt about my brother is there, like a black hole just waiting for me.
 
Panicked that I'm stuck in this anniversary thing and can't communicate about it. Worried that I'm not going to make it for real.
Self-doubt about every thing I say or do.

I'm sorry Seedling. Hang in there and try to enjoy the holiday. What are you going to be doing for Christmas?
 
I'm feeling pretty miserable but I'm at work and have had to "get into the spirit"for xmas.

It was kinda uplifting when we first all exchanged gifts, and for a while I felt like they liked me...I have this real insecurity that no one likes me. I also, contrarily, have the attitude that it doesn't really matter either way,but I have real trouble even knowing or accepting if people do like me, and usually end up missing out on fun because I'm convinced they don't so I don't hang out with them. It's been going on for years now.
 
A mellow day, just the four of us hanging out at home -eat, enjoy some presents and relax. Have kept the Christmas prep to a manageable level and enjoyed much of it. It's the stress inside that's been unpredictable. It's all tied up in a Christmas theme, every day I remember what was happening last year. This is the first anniv, so it's all new. Coming apart at the seams some. Have been using xanax.

I can relate to this one. I was told the "don't matter either way" was a natural self diffense thing to compensate for the insecurity.
 
Feeling really good for 4-5 weeks now....WOW! Not sure if it was a break thru or the new meds...maybe both, but it sure makes me hopeful :D
