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

So so tired again today
But happy again today
I'm still in love
And I love her.
I'll never give up on her
No matter how hard it gets.
She IS that special, my Beloved:inlove:

disappointed, frustrated, angry, and sad yet determined.;)

I am feeling drained. My mind is full of flashback images, it won't switch off. I feel guilty as I am at work, I must finish a newsletter, issue membership cards and do membership reminders. The phone keeps ringing with new bookings for which I need to organise drivers. And all I can do is sit and stare.

I think about taking a diazepam to help calm me, but some stupid f*cking pride thing stops me. I should be able to deal with this but all I see and think is broken glass, being trapped and crushed.

((((KP))))

There is no shame in taking medication or even in taking off from work when something like this happens. If it were me, I would be lying in the bed watching TV and chewing those diazepams up. ;) Seriously though, KP, Please take good care of yourself, we need you here!!!

Emotional analgesia is a new term to me. This is what my sufferer does with alcohol and I in turn, use food for. :coffee:

I feel the weight of my 'caregiver burden', another new term and wholly understandable. This is why self care is soooo important. And this is why I am so appreciative of this forum and my supportive friends and family!

Please take a bow. I am so indebted to you! :tup:

I'm just hanging on, probably doing better than it feels right now, though it feels painful and a bit confusing.

I hate that I have an obligation tomorrow and feel pressure to go into a situation I feel unable to control my symptoms. :(

((((Hugs)))) for everyone.

I've turned off the feeling switch today, to get it a rest.

Have to leave the house today, do some shopping it's been three days in hibernation.

Feeling a tad bit better, today.

Still angry, sad, and frustrated, but now I'm anxious, too!

Will try to relax with some computer time and some reading.

I have taken a diazepam. I will not feel guilty, in fact I thought about how many I had taken in the past year. I have taken 12 x 5mg tablets in the past 12 months - that sounds a lot. BUT it is only 12 tablets in 365 days. SO, I feel proud that I have managed my symptoms.

I am feeling tired now, I had a nap earlier, pain meds, diazepam, a meal with H and a couple of glasses of wine.

Bedtime soon.

(((HUGS)))

 

[CaringMomma]

Actually, that is really good. You haven't really taken that many. So, very proud of you, KP! Keep up the good work. You deserve it. (((Hugs)))
