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

[Deleted member 12723]

I am feeling ok. My sister called me yesterday and luckily I was out of the house. I am dreading her calling me. I have not heard from her in three months and I thought she cut me off and I was relieved. I really dread having a phone conversation with her.

??? Interesting. Perhaps you are not emotionally available right now for your sister.

I am feeling weird without having anxiety. I can focus and have energy. This is all odd to me. I don't remember the last time I felt this good and my mind was quiet. I'm not preparing for the next bad thing to happen. I am in the present. I am not focusing on the past or worried about my future. This is strange and I pray it lasts.

Is there a word for wanting to help when there's nothing to be done? My sweetie had a bit of a medical issue, it's been handled and he's fine. He says there's nothing I could help with. Darn it... how do I stop worrying if there's nothing to shift that focus onto?!

Confused. Today was a weird day for me. I was tired and cranky and it didn't seem to go away. I didn't want to isolate but when I was around my family everything was overstimulating to me. The tv was too loud. People around me wouldn't stop talking. There were moments I'd roll my eyes. It seemed like everything that people asked me were pointless questions because the answer was so obvious. I don't know why I was so irritable today. Even that was frustrating me.

I am feeling good. I had a happy time looking at an art exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art today near Circular Quay.

It was a beautiful day.

I am feeling so very tired. I had a big day. I did a lot.

I have had a hectic few days and I'm feeling proud of how I have managed them.

Some days were better than others and one thing is for sure. I have been way out of my comfort zone.

Today sees me hiding in our home office whilst a nice but noisy man replaces the bay window in my lounge. Lots of banging, drilling and earlier, breaking glass. The glass and drilling are stressors for me, but so far so good. The dogs are laid at my feet, giving me comfort.

Residual blues of the Monday morning type. Still no apparent reason. Very tired, but the sun is out for a bit so that lifts my spirits.

I am put out at my H. He knows I need some uninterrupted studio days, at least one every few days. I'm working for money which we don't have. That means not making up an agendae for me which interrupts the whole flow of thought, colour and form at any point in a day. Please, I am so far behind. Yet we are older and I shouldn't put the whole burden of snow shovelling the drive way on him. DUNG BEETLES!!!!!

I am feeling that I need to move on with my life and that it is possible because I feel like I have strength for the first time since diagnosed with PTSD.

Feeling hopeful and encouraged that I have the right veterinian for my dog. He's actually consulting with Auburn University this afternoon and they may make him a "case study" for a safer treatment.
