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

[scared]

I wish that I could figure out how to get my life back in just the littlest way. I want to be able to leave my house by myself and be ok with it. I am going to call some ptst therapists today to see if I can find a low income one. I got some more phone numbers. This site is great it makes me fell like I am not alone in the world.

I'm edging into depression, trying to find something to hold onto so I don't submerge into the black goo again.

Right in one way maybe - perhaps you have another sense of "right". I know there are no easy answers, just wanted to send you some support and the possibility that you're doing what's best for you at the moment.... who knows?... this whole thing is a minefield.

I hope you feel better soon.

Sad, lost, like I want to cry and like I am crying inside but yet no tears will come out. Disconnected, hopeless. There is no escape from the torture of the past and present.

I am so sorry you are feeling this way but it is helping me because in the way you expressed yourself I can identify here with people here for the first time since my tragic event. There are so many times that I am a basket case because I can barely feel anything and do not know how to feel or what to feel or too scared to feel, since it is too overwhelming but your words kind of bring it all together and make me realize that I am still alive and there are people like me. I'm not alone so thank you so much for sharing and helping a lost sole here.

A bit overwhelmed. Coming back from a vacation and stepping into major stuff is playing with my mind. I will be fine though! Had a great time and feel ready to tackle things head on.

I am feeling a mixture of emotions, but that's okay. A feeling of relief, sadness, and then of course, the trusted, anger, to throw into the pot.

At least, I am aware and know what's behind me feeling this way and it means change and growth for me, which is a good thing!

Horrible anxiety again this morning - but I spent a good portion of the day practicing the breathing technique my T told me to do. I also listened to guided imagery affirmations and some relaxing instrumental music. I think it actually helped!

I don't feel as anxious tonight. I have some energy which is unusual after working all day. I might get some things done tonight. And then tomorrow morning it's off to see the horses. I love having something to look forward to :p.

Feeling challenged by a leaking radiator in my flat - I struggle to cope with the dishes, let alone something like this, and it's Friday night so I'm not sure if the heating company will be able to come before Monday. But I'm pleased that I've stayed calm and done what I can. Trying not to feel victimised or get into anxiety about how all the other radiators will start leaking etc.

I have an incredible bf. I really do. It's cool to think today I actually noticed other things. Like my mind was actually somewhere else for awhile.

I feel pathetic.

((((((((((((((((Hugs to those that need them)))))))))))))))))))))

Feeling a bit exhausted still, getting my body to function after being in serious depression and flat out pain is a bit harder the older I get, it's a bit frustrating not to mention scary as I struggle with fear of the next episode nipping at my heels. Staying focused on the here and now helps to not overwhelm me but is certainly not my natural state of mind.

I'm grateful it's the weekend. Hope everyone takes good care.

Feeling grateful. Radiator leak has turned into a bigger problem, and building issues are something that can really trigger my anxiety. But I'm thankful that I have a contract with a good company who are dealing with it and I didn't have to find an emergency plumber and have someone I didn't know in my flat. I'm thankful that it started while I was in the flat so I could catch the leak quickly, rather than it soaking the floor for hours while I was out at work. I'm thankful that the engineer doing the emergency repair today was helpful and found solutions for the various extra problems that came up. I'm thankful that I can afford to pay for it.

Trying to ignore how tired I am (already sleep deprived then last night had to set my phone timer for every 90 minutes so I could get up and empty the bowl catching the drips) and trying to remember my DBT skills for radical acceptance and not making a bad situation worse.

I hope everyone has a good weekend too, without the complications from the ptsd. I feel good today, I do not have the morning anxiety. I am grateful for that.
