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

I have been tense today, waiting for my laptop to be ready to be picked up. I am glad they did treat me right this time. I kept on top of them, pushing gently to get it done so I could pick it up. Right now I feel better. I have a program on to watch, and I am relaxing. So I guess I feel good. I hope it lasts.

I'm numb, and feeling incredibly vulnerable. I just want to go to bed and not wake up until my head's back in the game.

Exhausted.

I have had a bad stomach all night.

I am on a out of control roller coaster and my heart will explode before it is going to stop.

I woke feeling bright, happy and alert. I feel today will be a good day.

Now I have a migraine without the pain.

One eye has almost shut down, luckily I can still see clearly out of the other.

Feeling like I want to bolt down the doors and windows. Anything else might tip me over the edge. Feel vulnerable, lost and can't identify with the outside world...empty. Don't quiet know how I will get out of it today, will I tomorrow?

Numb. And it feels good to feel that way. I don't want to feel at the moment. I don't know how I should feel.

I am feeling nervous and confused. My husband had a bad episode of hallucinations and delusions. He was accusing me of all sorts of horrible things. I got angry at him, and realized it and caught myself. So I feel bad about that. I tried to be better with him. it is the disease and not him.

I already made the chili for today, my daughter and her family are coming over for dinner. I will ask for her help learning how to attach files. I am looking forward to that. In spite of our rocky start, I still hope today will be a good day. My husband depends on me for everything. He really needs me. I wish I would not get angry at him when he hallucinates and has delusions. I wish I was kinder and more understanding. Live and learn. I so want to have a good day. I am feeling nervous.

Please don't be angry at yourself gizmo, that is onevitable as a 24 hour care-giver. And for your husband, also.
And LBD has nothing that can be used (for medication), I know sometimes it is unbelievable.

Even more so, it's actually good he feels able to let it all out- he feels more free to say out loud what he's thinking or feeling (even with the dementia) than in a hospital or care home. So it's actually a positive.

Chili.. mmmm. :)

So nervous and apprehensive about seeing my aunt and cousin for the first time in 5 years. So much to say... I have a really big knot in my tummy :eek:

I'm feeling OK, but mentally exhausted. I've been journalling for hours, which wasn't my plan but I started the day writing my dream diary and so much has come up I decided to stay with it. It's been really helpful. I haven't journalled much lately, and I'm thinking I need to try to do some everyday, to avoid the need for this kind of weekend marathon.

I don't really know what to do now, though. There are lots of things I need to do but I feel so tired, flat and a bit fragile, although kind of restless too.
