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

I am feeling better than I did when I first woke up. I am looking forward to my day. I hope it will be an adventure. I hope my husband will be able to play the guitar. We will be busy today. I am grateful for that. Today will be a good day. I keep getting intrusive anxiety provoking thoughts. I could do without them.

Hugs for all who are struggling today. Hang in there, it will pass. And you will be giving me a hug when it is my turn.
 
Today has been a duvet day. I shift from feeling shivering disgust and alarm at how out of control, unaware and devalued I was. I get glimpses of emotion about how patently absurd and tragic a litany of events in my life were and how ridiculed I must have been. It seems unfathomable that people who purported to care for me witnessed this like a circus reel.

I feel the fear I used to wear like static on my skin. I hold onto myself and have no energy for exertion. I imagine effort which is received warmly and returned equally on its own merit, like this is a dream out of my reach.The only way I get it is by pretending.

I do feel warm and rested, even if it is at the expense of a daily life. In the past few weeks I have on a handful of occasions woken myself up with a little piggy snort. Bliss, actually sleeping! Good for laughs too!
 
So I will keep working hard. I will keep focussed, but I will stop judging myself as less than everyone. I am how I am. I will get better and improve all the time. It is just going to take time.

I am keeping in mind how much I have improved this year with my disassociation. I have really improved a lot. I have along way to go but I am doing really well. I am with people without constantly talking and entertaining. I never really thought I could get my anxiety around people down to that level. That is pretty amazing for me.

Hi Ms Spock!

You should be very proud of your self. Keep up the good work!
