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

I feel lazy. I've decided Tuesday is MY day off. It is almost 1pm and I've been up for about an hour. H is away so it is just me and the dogs.

I feel I am clinging on by my fingertips. So many flashbacks to my accident brought back by solicitor visits and psychologist questionnaires, plus it will all happen around my accident anniversary next month.
 
I wrote a summary of my abuse experiences in my diary yesterday. I haven't looked back at that stuff in quite some time and it has left me feeling sad. The sadness seems to be making me feel unhappy and a little bit ticked off, so perhaps I am finally getting to the anger that I've buried for so long.:confused: we'll see.
 
I feel overwhelmed. I have tasks today which I must do, including going to work. I am due at work in an hour and I'm sat here instead of having a shower. I should also eat, I know going all day with just a banana in my stomach does not make for energy.

Thanks to friends here, I don't feel as alone as I did. You folk are my online family.
 
Paranoid. Are my medications making me worse with side effects, dependancy?. I know I need medications, I can't handle this on my own. The last couple of times I tried to go medication free, I ended up being hospitalized after a month or two (psych ward).

Loved. My wife has tried several time to reach out to me and let me know I'm loved the last few days. My cat has been clingy today and the last few days. He has wanted to be on my lap, and be loved, petted, and hug me. He lays on my lap with his arms stretched out hugging my belly.

Paranoid about my pain. It has been getting progressivly worse the last few months. It has been dibilitating at times. When will this worsening trend stop? Will it ever get better? How much medication, new medications will I need to deal with the pain? What will their side effects be?

Bored. I haven't been able to find anything to do that is enjoyable the last week or two. It's hard to be engaged in the "real" world doing "real world" things when I'm in so much pain, and my anxiety is preventing me from leaving the house other than to walk around the block late at night.

Depressed that all of the above and other things are preventing me from enjoying life.

Depressed that my sex drive, enjoyability, and ability is falling through the floor. Wife has her health problems so it's been solo for the last 3 years, but it is one of the only things I look forward to. One of the only things I enjoy in life.

Jumpy. I scream "like a little girl" at just about any sudden noise. My startle response is off the charts.
