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

((((((LauaieJ)))))) ((((((Hope)))))) :hug:'s to you both.

I am very tired today.The doctor took me off the Gabapentin I was taking for Restless Leg Syndrome and Cramp and has put me on Amitriptyline. The side effects are much less, just a very dry mouth, but I'm not sure it is working.

I get cramp in my calf occasionally, more so on the sole of my feet; but the worse is where my toes curl down on their own and stay that way for a while. it leaves me in pain and even wakes me up. Not nice at all.

The doctor said if the new drugs don't work I will have to see a neurologist.

Apart from that I'm doing really well.:tup:
 
I am disappointed to see my stamina and endurance is low. This is why I suffer so much and if little things come in my I get tired too quickly. I want to work. I have to live so much. It has just started. But it is not good to have low stamina. It doesn't make me feel good.
 
CraftyCath- Thanks for the hugs. They were put to good use and things got better.
I got home the other night and the computer worked properly so I applied for three jobs.

Today is a great day. I just got back from aqua aerobics and feel tired but good.
 
I am both disappointed and frustrated all at the same time. I have been trying to find a job before my last semester ends without any success. I have interviewed with two companies for positions that I already have a year experience doing and still didn't get the jobs. I also did a phone interview today and it really did not go well. I just froze and was unable to come up with any good examples for the questions they were asking. That and I got the feeling they were looking for someone with more "leadership" abilities. I hate those questions about leadership. I mean I have a hard enough time interacting with people in general so leading is not even considered as an option.
 
So here I am leaving the house everyday, exercising, and living life. It's a little weird.
:) That's wondeful. Can I borrow your motivation?

I feel tired as I have been functioning on very high levels of stress for a few days. I feel hopeful about the future. I feel depressed, guilty and ashamed, for some reason, about failing at things I tried to do recently :( overwhelmingly so that I will write about it and take it to therapy.

Still; I do feel hopeful, and need to remember that.

Sending smiles to you all :eek: look out!
 
I am so overwhelmed. The emotions around disconnection from people and family are so scary and lonely. My SI is strong at times. I feel like this will never end. This feeling is overwhelming. I am trying to remember it is just a feeling.
