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

[SeekingSerenity]

Now I'm incredibly angry.
and I'm upset,
but mostly very very angry.

 

[Sethe]

I feel as if I just drank a bottle of poison (after talking with my mother- if you call that 'talking').

There are small parts that feel strong because I did stand up to her.

I know what you mean, (((((Sethe))))) Good for you for standing up to her!

I'm on day 7 of severing ties with my mom and sister. It really is the best decision that I've ever made for myself, even though it is painful. They both have been poison in my life. Enough of that. I'm on to better days and I know the healing will come.

And, ((((workingwithc-ptsd))))), I'm very happy that you are doing so well. It is very encouraging. Thank you for sharing.

Go, Momma!! :)

Woke up with a stuffy head again. Maybe it was a bit more than just a cold virus, this on top of everything else.

Come on now give me a break. Bath with Rose, Marjoram and Pine oil later.

Its a new day.
Lets start again,
Optimistic

Lonely

Great job, Sethe! It is far from easy to to do what you have done!


I feel a bit more clear today, there are people here who are helping me to understand the process of last week. For that I am forever grateful. I'm still in and out mentally but I'm giving myself a break to work on what I can, take care of myself how I can, I'm eating as well as I can, and just be where I'm at.

This has to be good enough for now. I think it's better than I done with this issue in the past so I'm not taking on anyone else's guilt at the moment - the tank is on FULL at this point, thank you very much.

Football today.

 

[KP the nut]

I feel I am surviving, but only just. I feel like I have been in denial, as if I have been fooling myself or maybe I am the fool. I will never be free of PTSD symptoms, yes I think I can control/manage them but I know it will be a continuous fight and I don't know if I can do it.

I feel tired, I have been up for 5 hours and I need a nap.

I feel as if I am whinning and pathetic.

KP you are not whinning or pathetic, just human!

No you won't ever be totally free of your symptoms but over time you will become more proficient at managing them. You are strong enough to get through this rough patch KP, stay strong & keep going, remember that recovery comes in baby steps & sometimes we go back a few steps before we can move forwards again.

You are in my thoughts xx

shame
tempted
disconnected
emotionally muted
spacy
tired
apathetic

I am ill with some kind of flu bug. Was up sick last night. I'm not sleeping well. chills, aches, swollen glands, low-grade fever, physical exhuastion; the works.:(

I feel sad, like I want to cry, but just don't have the energy. :unsure: I have another chronic illness with no magic bullets and I am feeling a bit sorry for myself because of it. *(not my usual style)

On the other hand, I am at peace tonight. I have made some good friends recently, am moving out my isolation, suspending mistrust, etc.:)

I got a call from my daughter tonight that really cheered me up....it was funny;
She called, ...the phone rang, ...I picked it up, ...the voice says, "I Love You!!!", ...I said, "I love you too, who is this????" :laugh: (I really didn't know who it was).

Lots of big, warm, healing, hugs to all who need them,
