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

pain my arm is worse

Have you gone to a pain specialist or physical therapy for this? I had this horrible pain in my shoulder blade that went down to my finger tips. It even caused some numbness that they weren't sure was going to go away. Anyhow, seeing the pain specialist and physical therapy really helped. Even though I didn't do the exercises at home. Now, when I get the pain coming back, I try to do some of the techniques she had shown me and they seem to work.

Well, I do hope your pain goes away soon!
 
I'm feeling useless. I'm starting to want to sleep more. I started isolating myself almost two months ago. The nurse practitioner had made little tweaks to my meds, but basically the same tweaks each time. I am only getting worse. I see him every two weeks. Last week he brought the psychiatrist in. He suggested we try abilify. However we aren't going to start until next week. I keep telling myself, only a little while longer. Praying that things will start turning around. Sorry for the rant.
 
Is there such a thing as "people burn-out"? I think that is what I have been feeling lately. It is like when I go out, I want to just be with me. Just noticing how there are certain people, I can be me with, and then others, I will be superficial with, and then there are others, I will avoid if I can.

Just something different that I'm feeling now, which probably goes back to when I didn't have a choice when I was working, and I was around lots of people, and at times it was just too much for me.

Of course, can't forget the crap I have gone through with my family of origin. It now has been one year without any contact from them!

Hopefully, some healing is taking place, with now having that choice which before I didn't.
