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

[BlackbirdSinging]

Anxious. Hypervigilant. Impatient. Irritated. I've been fighting the stupid distorted thoughts all day again. I keep going in and out and back and forth. My system is exhausted. Why can't the people who hurt me be the ones to deal with all of this? Why do they get to go on with their lives like nothing happened? They should have to suffer as much as I do. If not more.

Feeling awake and a little anxious but okay.

Feeling like I can do this daily stuff. I don't need to retreat back to bed. Not that that thought isn't in the back of my head but I am managing on keeping it back.

Today I brought my son to register for high school. I even met a mother of one of his friends. Unfortunately, I do not remember what she said her name was. You know how you just sometimes go blank when someone comes up to you? Does this make sense? Then we did a little bit of grocery shopping at his request. He wanted healthy food. What mother is going to turn that down? We bought stuff for dinner. Than I managed to put a load of wash in.

Doesn't seem like a big deal, but, for someone who doesn't go out much and feels fairly immobile, this is a big deal. Made me feel "normal".

Terrible. I fought like crazy with anxiety hypervigilance and the distorted thoughts today. I ended up hurting someone's feelings. I feel like such an a**.

Blargh + Sigh + Waah
Is that a feeling?

Feeling competent and capable at times then wavering and feeling pretty low. Pushing through as best as I can.

Yes this makes sense to me it happened to me when I had high anxiety. I introduced myself and the woman said to me we just just introduced ourselves five minutes ago.

I had a better day to day. Was full of anxiety earlier after the kids and I took a cat nap. That's part of my coping skill also, didnt rest well last night.

Feeling anxious
scared
tired, very tired.

I'm really proud of you. As I only leave the house once a month and that is going to the dr, and I really struggle just doing that.

I hate having agorphobia has had me for 2 yrs this time. I'd get it off and on years ago and nobody knew.

Following this trauma, it sat in strong. ugh

 

[ms spock]

Feeling really high anxiety. Going to meet a friend at the studio and wish I didn't have to go there this afternoon. But I must pull it together.

 

[BlackbirdSinging]

I'm sad. I feel lost and helpless. I'm scared. I almost hate myself. I don't know what to do. I'm lost in the distorted thoughts and fear. At the moment I'm so upset and disappointed in myself. I can't see my way out. I need help.
