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

Thanks whitneys story for the suggestion -- yep, once I finally got off my duff I made certain I picked up some coffee and a couple of Halloween cupcakes with vintage-style witch picks on them. (I can't eat the cupcakes yet until the headache's completely gone, but when it is...:hungry:)

I'm feeling guilty because I took off today:oops:. However, I worked on my diary because I knew I was numbing out too much which normally slogs me down into utter un-productivity if I let the numbness put me in an almost catatonic state. So, I'm hoping a little truancy will actually help. (Besides, my students have a huge essay due, so they promptly emailed me with a "thank you" that they get an extra class session to work on it without having class; I didn't tell them that I'm the one thanking them for not complaining to the chair.:oops:)
 
Feeling sick and so tired it hurts. Feeling upset and grief and disgust and shame and guilt and dirty. Feel like a brick has been thrown at my face, nose and head are throbbing and my jaw is aching from clenching my teeth, have ear ache too :(. Chest is hurting and whole body aches and is stiff. Feeling like HE is here and is happening again and little me just wants to die. I just want these feelings to pass. :( I hope I can sleep when I get some more meds.
 
I'm feeling good today. Relieved that Halloween is over with and I don't have to hide in the house anymore. It was actually a foul, wet and windy night so it went quiet after 7.30pm. I'm lucky I live in a nice cul-de-sac where the children look for treats rather than play tricks. I did notice on my dog walk this morning a couple of empty egg boxes so I'd guess some places got egged.

I feeling happy I have only one more sleep and then H will be home tomorrow night. Next week he is out during the days but at least he is home at night.

(((HUGS))) to all who need them. I'm having plenty of doggie hugs :D
 
Feeling not quite with it this morning. No anxiety....just a "duh" feeling. Hopefully my brain won't be "duh" today as there is too much to attend to. I did enjoy looking at all of the pics of my friends children and grandchildren and their Halloween costumes. Loved the homemade ones as they were so creative.

(((Charmedone))) and (((Hugs))) to all that need them.
 
Kudos to you Traumagirl :happy: for breaking the cycle and encouraging innocent enjoyment of Halloween treats.

KP, glad you got through it. :tup: Though I adore Halloween, there are neighbors who celebrate all sorts of occasions with firecrackers, which drives me as crazy as it drives my furry ones. So, I can definetely relate to your feeling trapped inside.

I had a rough night and feel so arthritic from all the clenching in my sleep. I was worried about getting it together enough for work today, but, in this last hour, I found my "umph: you can do it" again: hopeful, now.
