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

I had the same realization many years ago Loloma. I think there are a few of us out there with this issue.

I delved into it and discovered that I believe I don't really deserve to be either. I think we can learn though, and change those beliefs...meditation helps, and I have had some moments of pure happiness, that lasted for about 10 minutes once...other times of pure Bliss which lasted 2 whole days.

People do like to be around happy people...that's a hard fact of life for people like us.

Maybe it isn't meant to last though. I'm a strong believer in needing contrast in life. I wouldn't appreciate the happy moments so much without knowing sadness...and vice versa.

Please try and be kind to yourself Loloma. I know it's easier said than done, believe me.
 
Confused
Emotional
Paranoid
Hyper-anxious
Exhausted
Crossing back and forth on the edge of losing touch with reality. This sucks because I can't trust my own mind. I need to go to sleep, but I'm afraid to for some reason. Very unusual for me. I opened the door floodgates to emotions as my T suggested, and now they are consuming me and my sanity.
 
Sadness, guilt, fret, worry, tired, raw, alive, safe, pleased, etc.

I'm feeling sad due to the number of stressors and MH of our family.

..Tired. Just something that happens regularly lately, no matter how much sleep and rest I get.
..Feeling raw. Just something that my guts feel when I'm fully alive and not under undo this moment stressors.
..Feeling alive. And, feel guilty for being so. Don't ask me why, I don't know.
..Feeling safe. Generally feel safe days when I'm alone.

I'm feeling pleased. Pleased that I got as much sleep as I did yesterday morning, afternoon and evening. And, pleased that I've accomplished what I have today.

Removing why I feel guilty, fretful and am worrying, due to it causing me to feel afraid. So, I guess I'm now feeling afraid as well. (lol)

..Afraid that someone will judge me. Like who really cares right and what difference does it really make. (lol) (intellectually I know but w/ mind/body (my anxiety levels) won't register)
..Paranoid that someone will kidnap my son, if I say here what he's up to. (again intellectually ridiculous, yet mind/body doesn't register this.)

:O_o:
 
I feel a bit lost and once again sick of pain, same old blah blah blah. I'm grateful my Son's father came through his surgery okay and he is doing better. I miss my forum friends but can't put my thoughts together but my heart is here. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.
