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

[Err0r]

Today, I am feeling utterly defeated & numb. My cousin's new fiance (who has only been with a month) is in the hospital because of her PTSD. My family is being very supportive of her, helping her, etc.

They never believed me.
They never supported me.

Why was/am I not worthy? Why is she?

I felt miserable and was hurting so much today, grieving and sorrowful earlier in the day. I cried at work and felt relief, and much better now. I feel safe and warm at home, ready for bed, looking forward to tomorrow (can't remember the last time I caught myself feeling that way?) I feel sleepy and fading fast.

I feel exhausted.

My husband was in hospital with pneumonia all last week, and he became so ill that it was a close call. He's home in bed now, and I'm very tired, have been triggered the whole time, and really anxious.

I'm in one of those dissatisfied with life moods, where nothing seems to be rewarding, yet I know I have some things to be happy for. I have a new friend, I just got a phone card in the mail from my sister (who I just finished talking to on the phone). I guess it may be because when I took a nap this afternoon, I had a nightmare (daymare?). I dreamed that my husband had just died (he died actually in 2005) and I was having to deal with the initial shock and grief of it all over again (and had to deal with telling folks who didn't know yet and all that). In a way it was like reliving his death all over again. And the memories linger, the dream ones and the real ones... and it is so disheartening!

Feeling overwhelmed by my feelings of anxiety, helplessness and hopelessness.

So pleased that I am feeling better every day. I would not like to repeat the last two weeks again. Being ill sapped all my energy and strength, had me in a bad mood and gave me constant headaches.

Every day is an improvement, probably need another week and a repeat of the antibiotics. Have to try and mow the lawn this weekend and get some gardening done. The place looks rather disgusting and run down outside.

:hug:'s to all that need them.

I feel irritated today. I wish I knew how to communicate my feelings better, more clearly, to my husband.

I feel so alone on this forum at the moment but I think it is my own fault. People did private message me and I responded by asking about them and not talking about myself. I find it hard to have my needs met and I am blocking people.

I find it hard to be around people. I find it hard to identify my needs or have my needs met in any way. It is so confronting.

You're not alone. And just so you know I'm always encouraged when I see that you've been up and active and out and about even when you've posted that it hasn't been an easy day. I hope tomorrow will be a better day for you.

I feel ok right now. I think. In this moment I don't feel overwhelmed. I'm grateful for that. Although now that I've said that I feel like I have to laugh at myself because that makes me feel like I need to "scan my environment" so to speak.

I'm being courageous though I am scared and depressed as all. I don't know how to do more then I am and any less would be hugely problematic. Overwhelmed, enslaved, stressed and sad. Today however, I postponed acknowledging and feeling those feelings for which I could.

Also, this morning I was pleased and proud of myself after successfully making it through my MRI.

O' ya, ...worn out and exhausted!

I feel annoyed that it takes me so long to identify what I feel. Proud that I know I need to work on feeling ID. Sad that I am still dealing with trauma. Defensive that I have gotten no feedback on my post.

I'm feeling like an old, worn out, biotch.
And I couldn't be happier about it!
