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

[LaurieJ]

I am feeling horrible. My mother tried to trim the dog's ear fur and cut her so I've been at the vet all morning. I'm home now and she is coming out of the sedative and it's horrible to watch and hear. I'm hiding upstairs while others are taking care of her and keeping her safe. I just took my anti anxiety medications and am hoping they kick in very soon. My nerves are shot. This dog is fourteen years old and in ill health to begin with and I don't know how much longer she will be around. She is breaking my heart.

I am feeling good. I am so happy that my daughter and the girls are having a mini vacation, but dissappointed that I will not be able to get out of here today to go and visit my daughter and the girls. Feeling down about that. I hope to cheer myself up and feel better. I will take it easy today again.

I had a super time with my grand-daughter yesterday and today. Did me some good as we told each other how much we loved one another. Times like that are very precious and help me forget the eurk moments.

I'm feeling proud of myself because my emotionally abusive father wanted to come over to my house and I finally had the courage to say no.

I am feeling okay today.

I am feeling better than I was. I look forward to tommorow when I can get out of this house. I am having cabin fever.

I am still miserable with depression mixed in. I could look at a rainbow right now and find the tragedy in it. I was triggered by the injured dog and all the yelling here. It makes me feel like a little kid again. I'm going to cuddle with my stuffed animals and watch cartoons and hopefully feel safe and better.

Frightened, with anxiety feeding depression!

I am getting so worried that I will not be able to make the social connections that I know I need to be healthy. As each week goes by I am going out and doing some things and gradually getting to know some people, and building the foundation for friendships.

Unforgettably, as this is a slow process, I have far to much time to worry about it and whether it will actually happen or not!

It is happening and I have to keep reminding myself of this - it is supposed to take time for people to get to know one another - I have to ficus on this simple fact and stop expecting the worst.

Maybe I am getting really worked up about this as the Easter Long weekend is coming and I don;t have any thing planned yet. I can hear you all suggesting that I need to organize something, but my anxiety has been jumping in front of me and wrapping me up in my warped thoughts shield so it is getting hard for me to thing and act straight.

Promise to self: I will decide what to do and who to call by Wednesday and then I will implement the decision!

Today has been a very good day! :) I happened to find some pleasure in service, relaxation in peace, hope in work well done, security in my patience and love, ...and eagerness in a day fairly well lived.

It was warm today and I can't wait until the sun and the warmth really comes out and I can look forward to getting outside again to do yard work.

I feel excited.

Depressed. I mean I feel really depressed. And frustrated. I really need a break from the intensity of this.

Oh I really relate to what you are going through GreenFrog. I also worry I will never make healthy connections.

It is taking such a long time. I did spend some nice time on the weekend with a friend and met some other nice people.
