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

[Philippa]

Melancholy. On the verge of tears most of the day, but they never quite made it out of my tear ducts.

Feeling settled in my home, warm and wondering whether to go to the studio and paint or stay in and meditate, read and just hang out with the cat?

I'm grieving, and sorrow is deep but noticed joy there as well, last night especially.

Glad that my hangover has passed and feeling back to normal again...albeit a bit fragile. A bit anxious.

Looking forward to my tarot card reading tomorrow with a very well renowned reader who I am excited to know is now living in Melbourne, and who a work colleague of mine is actually living with. I have been following this woman for quite a while and wished she would move here.

I am feeling the urge to take substances tonight by myself, as a creative tool, but undecided as to whether I will?

 

[Abstract]

Not a happy little camper at present. Dreams have become out of control again and I am careening between denial and some realities. Feeling fragile and suspended. Just want to wrap up in my soft blanket and not work or see people.

 

[Philippa]

I did wrap myself up under the covers for the first half of the day Abstract. I could have stayed in bed all day if it weren't for my tummy telling me to feed it. Sometimes you just have to make like a caterpillar in a cocoon.

 

[Raj]

I feel empty inside and alone.

 

[Lionheart]

I feel a tiny bit depressed, but not overwhelmingly so. I do feel lonely although mostly I feel blessed, peaceful and relaxed. I feel loved and cared for and only wish that I had my forum friends in my 3D life. Pain and fatigue whether it be physical or emotional is so much easier to handle when there are friends close by. I feel really grateful for my friends!!!

Relief that yesterday (Mother's Day) is over and today is just a regular day. I have hope that it will be a good day too.

 

[LaurieJ]

Tired but good.

 

[CraftyCath]

Feeling ill and I'm frustrated with it. :(

I went to the doctors and she has ordered a chest x-ray to see if my heart is enlarged as I am breathless and my blood pressure is too high (140; it is usually 110 or under). I also have to have a full blood screen again.

Is it my calcium levels? Is it my iron levels? Is it my heart? Is it just the menopause? Or something else entirely?

:confused::eek:

Glad you cocooned yourself Philippa. Sometimes it is the only right thing isnt it? Hope it allowed you to emerge refreshed. Glad too that you fed that tummy! Also important self care.

I could have easily done so the whole day if I had not had work appointments and had someone staying with me.

Guess I should be proud as treating myself that kindly at all used to be impossible and I have come a long, long way.

The cr*p I deal with these days is big cr*p but the way I deal with any kind of cr*p these days is a million times better than in the past. ;-)

 

[edgar]

I feel unmotivated, empty, and withdrawn. I hope my soon to be therapist can give me some of that hope back.

 

[Philippa]

I feel kinda desperate, but not sure why exactly? I'm still a bit down and melancholy, a bit gloomy. Feeling queazy still from too much alcohol two nights ago. I think I'm a bit depressed, but it's not overwhelming at this stage. Looking forward to my tarot card reading this afternoon though...I always feel relieved when I have posted here to get clear on where I am at in the moment.

Progress not perfection, that's the goal. I also need to acknowledge how far I've come in the area of self-care.
