Feeling empowered after the past week. Pushed through some tough things and learned a lot, and very ready to put the new lessons into life.

Happy. Have my family in the same room as I am. I love them.

Torn. Just got news that my aunt, mom's sister, had a heart attack last night. This is the aunt who stopped talking to me the year after my mom's death for no apparent reason, but shortly after I admitted to her that I had been an in patient for depression. So I'm not sure how I am suppose to feel. We use to be close. I know my son is upset, because they were close. She's only in her 60's. So far, two of her sister's and her father died in at that age. Not good.

I'm feeling good. A quietish day today. Hubby and I went to buy a new bird table and niger seed feeder. The birds should be happy, they now have - niger seed, fat block, peanuts, black sunflower seeds, hi energy seed, mealworms and suet pellets. Maybe that is slightly over the top. Still, I enjoy watching them in the garden.

Proud and grateful that I managed to give my kids a good day yesterday, and a decently good day today. Also so grateful that they were so lovely all weekend, and that my oldest ones understand my PTSD well enough to not take things personally, and to get out of a room(my very small kitchen) immeditely when I panic and ask them to. Very foggy and gone on/off. Very tired but fairly calm.

I'm in a good mood today, happy you could say. I usually don't do this until after Thanksgiving, but since I only have two Thanksgiving decorations, I also put up my Christmas tree and some other Christmas decor. I love Christmas lights, in fact when I was in Junior High (now known as Middle School, I made some HUGE Christmas lights. The principal liked them so much that he put them into the showcase outside his office for the season. What a happy memory, one that I celebrate every year when I put up my tree.

Anxious. Hypervigilant. Rejected. Forgotten. Sad.

Calmer then I was earlier.

I feel happy :) because I like the man that I have become. Despite having many challenges and setbacks, I continue to persevere. I am finally reaping the rewards for the hard work I've done and I feel strong and empowered.

Hugs for all in need,

I have been feeling like I am letting people down again. Basic tasks are hard at the moment as I have Bronchitis - no energy and in constant pain. I have also been waking my family at night with my coughing and my hubby has become irritated with me.

I feel angry at myself that yet again an illness has got the best of me and I am unable to perform simple tasks such as cooking and laundry.

I feel frustrated that for the last week I have had a bout of insomnia and when I get to sleep I have nightmares...

I was so sick, that I missed my appointment with my therapist.. I feel disappointed that I wasn't well enough to go.

I feel like I am fragile and that I could break - lack of sleep does this to me. Trying to stay positive but finding it difficult...

@CourageofSnow Be kind and gentle with yourself. You need to heal from your sickness and feeling guilty about it won't help it heal. You need to provide a tender, loving touch, to yourself. I know it is difficult. I often end up crying when I am really sick because I feel so guilty that my family, husband, is taking care of me. Even when he is just tucking me into bed. I end up apologizing. Seriously, we can't help that we are sick. If situation was reversed we would take care of them.

Take care of yourself and try not to beat yourself up. Hope you feel better soon.

Nervous about my physical coming up today. Thankfully it is not a gyno visit. I haven't seen my doctor since the day I broke down in his office, before I ended up inpatient in the psyche ward. I really do not want to talk about that but I know him, and he will ask with that knowing look. He really is a nice doctor. I just don't want to talk about it.
