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

Still feeling mentally and physically tired, but the pain is gone, the new stomi system is easing the haematosis and I haven't loss any blood today ... I could see it drain from the sides of the bandages. So tonight is rest for the head and the body ... Thank you all for your support... great thanks to (((Solo))) and (((Missing_the_sunshine))) who both so caringly stood by me Sunday to Monday during the worst part of my pain. So grateful for forum friends...
 
I am feeling alot better> I have to write letters to my daughter and his psychiatrist. I will do that later. We are going to taco bell tonight. I am feeling alot better. It is good to get it out of me. I did alot of that today. One step at a time will take me to where I want and need to go. He will either survive or he won't. Not my problem anymore. I will let him be responsible for his feelings and make some good and healthy boundries. I am feeling so much better. Still need to cry. What is it going to take to get me to cry? Losing him? I sure hope not. I need him around for a very long time.


I will fight for me. I will do this.

I guess I identified some of my feeling tonight, well at least at a glance and as far down as the H's on this list:
Hi! Thanks for your recent post. I've been away since August of 2010 according to the forum. It came to my email address and I followed it back to the forum. Of course, since it's been so long I had to reset my password. I'm expecting my first grandbaby, a girl, on July 8th. I'm also losing my best friend to cancer. I've been busy buying baby clothes! Most recently I've focused on sizes, 9 mo, 12 mo, and 18 mo. I'm attempting to sew her an outfit for next summer. I even bought a new sewing machine since it's been 16 years since I sewed. I've had it for 6 weeks and haven't managed to use it yet. I mentally and physically crash every weekend (both days). I just can't deal with the upcoming loss of my friend and I feel exhausted and very depressed. Still there are times when the excitement of the new baby buoys me up. I hope to hear from you and other "old" members, soon. PEACE....Valor
 
((((wildfirewildone)))) this will be a confusing moment for you as you experiencing a very happy moment of becoming a grandmother and at the same time you are losing your friend to cancer. The latter is sure to drain your energy, but the baby will help you find peace in Life. On top of that, you have to deal with your PTSD. Feeling compassion for you. Keep coming online to vent out, this helps to get our thoughts straightened out.
 
((((((((((((((((Junebug)))))))))))))))Always in my thoughts
(((((((((((((((Chincho))))))))))))I hope you feel better soon

I'm fighting with the dregs of another Migraine, depression, and awful nightmare of my ex who was so emotionally abusive. Waking to find it wasn't him next to me sent me into nausea, tears, and stabbing pain as I couldn't shake the dregs of those memories.

Now after a cup of coffee and watching my silly Girls herd my Hunny from room to room while he tries to get ready for work, leaping over each other, I feel better. The sick feeling is easing off and the person before me would NEVER say or do such horrid things to me. After so many years I still have to reboot that thought. :(
 
I also do not know what my role is as yet but my T tells me just to enjoy my life now and have as much fun as I can as I never did before. If I look back I am lost, if I look too far forward I am lost so I try to live in the 'now' and just enjoy it while dealing with the past and moving towards the future. Getting the balance is so difficult.

Cath,

That is exactly what my T and my oncologist have been telling me. So maybe what I am feeling is out of balance? lost? confused? Never thought that identifying emotions would be so difficult.
 
I can't believe I'm writing this but I feel mighty good, dare I even say happy.

I have had a good day. Work this morning went well, I finished everything I needed to do.

I'm feeling proud that, not only did I go to the hygenist but my bleeding gum percentage is down from 17% to 7%. Wow, a 10% improvement. Now I have the challenge to improve further. It was high because of the damage to my teeth in my accident, then all of the dental surgeries took there toll, but now I feel I'm in charge again.
 
She still hasn't replied to my emails.

Give her time Nadia. If she's a good T she will not want to rush reading your history. It is anxiety producing waiting to hear what a T has to say, particularly if it is a new T.

((((((Nadia))))))

but I feel mighty good

Wow KP! You go girl! Well done!

I feel OK but my mouth is still sore and swollen. I don't have access to the car until next week so I can't see my doctor until then and that's if I can get an appointment. :rolleyes:
