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

[Red Feather]

I'm feeling a lot of sadness and despair. I think my ex triggered me last night. I am trying to focus on not giving up. I'm not going to give up. I can get through this.

Self hatred because I couldn't go to the gym today.

Depressed because I haven't done anything in my life since I've graduated.

Just worn out with all the emotional ups and downs this past week so will take time out for me today!

I have a massage scheduled for tomorrow, so needed!

I am having such a hard time with the grief and feeling despair. I am blessed to have the girls one more night and day. I just keep pushing on. I so want to feel better.

Today has been very tough, severe anxiety over the kids and school
scared~ I won't be able to do it
Discouraged~ Thoughts of giving up cross my mind and I don't like that, This began about 2 weeks ago.

Do others have these kinds of feelings at one time or another that suffer with PTSD?

Been crying off and on today.

Feeling alone

I hate this

I want it to all go away!! I'm tired, I'm so tired of fighting.

 

[tired of the fight]

Overwhelmed is an understatement.

We all have experienced this at different levels. What helped me was going into therapy and when I was refered to a psychiatrist ... as I had become suicidal ... finally diagnosed the PTSD and put me on medication. What I appreciated with this Psychiatrist was she gave me time to discuss which medication could help me.

It's not easy being in your state right now and you can only do your best right now. If you know some grounding tricks like keeping your attention on you breathing (breath in by the nose and expire through the mouth); contracting your muscles very hard and let go - start only when the tingling sensation end.

Gentle hugs (((tired of the fight)))

I need to be alone, to breath and relax but 'alone' is impossible to find.

(((HUGS))) come visit me :cool:

I feel proud that I went to the gym for the first time. I did aqua fit and loved it. I even introduced myself to another lady who hadn't done aqua fit before (I have). I was so anxious before going but I did it. I rewarded myself with a coffee in their cafe.

I know I shouldn't be, but I'm feeling pleased that my dental hygenist appointment has been moved to Thursday.

I'm starting to feel anxious about tomorrow. I have my fitness (or rather unfitness) assessment at the gym.

Feeling a bit better today.

 

[Britt.f7]

Anxious. I have to take the dogs for a routine vet check, but I hate leaving the house. I know this is good experience for me, just hate that it has to be so difficult. It really shouldn't be.

Absolutely nothing this morning. Which was actually quite nice.
Then a stint of feeling desperately sad and about to burst into tears for no apparent reason. Then (and still) slightly on edge.

Feeling better today. I try to keep telling myself that the bad feelings will pass.
