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

I went and had the breast cancer and ovarian cancer tests today and that was immensely stressful for me. Then I came home and rested, napped, did the 21 Day Challenge with other forumites and went out to belly dancing.

I feel much better after resting.

FRUSTRATED !!!!! My anti-virus is blocking me from being able to properly communicate with this forum. Have to wait for my son-in-law to come over to fix this situation. Sorry to all my forum friends.

Vulnerable. Close to tears since I'm awake. I experience flashbacks about being beaten with fist on my back. My back hurts so much, and so does my soul too...

And I'm annoyed; I can't get rid of that bloody sinuses inflammation! I rinse them everyday, and every time there's some bloody pus coming out. Yuck!:wtf: The edema in lungs decreased the last two days, so breathing is quite more easy.

A change in medication is throwing me all out of sorts. It's not terrible, but it did take me a while to figure out what was going on.

I'm feeling lifted up by Albatross's Happiness Challenge after only 3 days.

I'm angry right now at tv shows that go into sexual abuse. I'm angry at myself that I can't sit through an episode like that without getting so anxious and triggered that I need to leave the room. I'm angry that I'm angry with myself when I completely and logically understand THIS is where I'm at right now. I'm angry that people turn on their tv and watch this stuff and then change the channel seeming to forget that it HAPPENS to children and people in general ALL THE TIME. It's not an hour long created plot. It's a reality. And that's what I'm feeling right now.

I didn't expect to be back so soon....I have been deathly ill with one of the worst bacterial infections I have ever had in my entire life. I am slowly healing, but what is special about this is that it has changed me in some fundamental ways. I "see" things differently.

I don't believe that I can take the little things in life for granted any longer and I feel 'super focused'. Every little thing that once seemed unimportant in the overall scheme of things, now stands out as some of the most important things in my life. The things that once seemed to be so "big" and important are actually little things that I doubt I will take much notice of in the future.

To my mind, I had a 'brush with death' over the past several days and this has had a major impact on me....I feel blessed to be alive, grateful and tuned in to life in way that I have never known before.

I am feeling a great deal of terror, anxiety, panic and fear today underneath it all.

 

[JustBe]

Anxious and unsettled. Frozen and lethargic.:wtf:

 

[Chincho]

Triggered and scared.

I am feeling tired of the same old patterns perpetuating themselves and me allowing it. I wonder if I will ever build a life for myself outside my parent's home. I'm 36 and PTSD landed me back home with them. It's not the best place for me to be. I'm looking for jobs everyday. I apply and hear nothing back. It's frustrating and depressing. I guess I'm just having a bad day.
