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

I'm feeling a bit edgy because the neighbors stand in their driveway and talk about my weeds. My bedroom window is over the driveway and I can hear them. Makes me paranoid since they won't talk to me.

People can be so judgmental....If they only knew that weeds are not important! Hugs to monster!

I'm feeling very anxious. I know it's the medication making feel that way, buy knowing doesn't help.

Enjoying the sunshine and the nice weather. Peaceful day.

I've been having the best day! Lots of energy and since I sold my stethoscope and ophthalmoscope yesterday, have now bought a brand new (yippee) wireless printer in addition to the refurbished laptop. I opened the windows and doors to let the fresh air come through and it smells great.

My thinking is a bit more clear today, and I'm on the verge of being able to concentrate enough to organize - something I used to be good at and enjoyed. Twenty years ago, I organized, stocked and staffed 3 different remote rural satellite clinics - on my own. Three years ago, I stood in the living room of the apartment I was losing, and was not able to organize my stuff into a garbage pile and a storage pile - I just stood there with a bag in my hands and simply could not think.

Right in the middle of feeling good this afternoon, I started to get really tense and feel aware of my heart beating fast. WHY OH WHY DOESN'T IT FEEL GOOD TO FEEL HAPPY?! That's just nuts; it makes no sense. And I have always been like that. :confused:

I feel like my head is spinning. I feel like I'm allergic to everything! I feel nervous and anxious about starting a new antibiotic I could be allergic to while in an allergic reaction already.

Sick and tired of being sick and tired. Come on spring, renew my health and spirit!

Well I was feeling Ok today. Went to my chiro and then onto the GP. Had about an hour before the GP appointment so decided to take my 5 year old with me to the cafe nearby.

I ask her what she wants and she wants hot chocolate. So then I ask her if she wants some raisin toast with the hot chocolate and she says, "no I will have the raisin toast without the hot chocolate."

So then I suggested she could have both if she wanted and she answers me very loudly so everyone in the whole cafe could hear:

"Well if I had hot chocolate and raisin toast then I might get a big fat tummy like yours from eating too much!"

I must be in a good mood today because that would have mortified me on other days. This time I saw the humour and sucked my stomach in very hard as I walked out of the cafe after she finished her hot chocolate and toast and I wished I had ordered a double vodka!

Dull but not numb.

I feel like I did okay today.

I can see my automatic caretaking behaviours. I am slowing down enough to see them more clearly. My anxiety is lessening. I feel less anxiety today.

I feel very stressed out because there is a lot of tension aroung me. I feel afraid that this tensions will finally become attacks against me. I fear that people are against me because of little things I did wrong. I interpretate their reactions, their lack of smiles or any behaviour as it is was directed against me.

I feel week and exposed to possible harm. I feel that it is impossible to fight these thoughts of fear.
