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

Find myself waffling somewhere between self-doubt and self-confidence. I've had a few days recently of feeling very confident and handling what life throws at me really well and even some really stressful situations without a symptoms flying to the surface. Then there are days when the old doubts and messages creep up and then I doubt myself and don't handle anything really well. To know that I am worthy and capable seems to be such key mindsets to just living. Finding consistency seems elusive, but something so worthwhile to strive for.
@intothelight, this really, really spoke to me. I'm constantly bouncing from one edge to the other, back and forth. I'm trying hard to find the balance, and it's *so* difficult. I actually wrote myself a document on my hard drive to remind me that I am worthy and smart and that I deserve good things, too, and I try to read through it everyday. It helps, sometimes. I mean, I wrote it... so I know I believed it at some point, even when I can't remember how I could ever feel that way. But I struggle with this, too, everyday! :hug: if you want them.

To everyone who's under the weather or not feeling well or having a difficult time, I just wanted to send out some :hug: if you want them. Hang in there! Everything changes, this will, too. And, of course, if you're having a great day, that's great. You get hugs, too, of course. :hug: Jeez. This is getting all mushy, let's move on... ;)

What am I feeling? (Why is this so incredibly hard?)

Frustrated. :confused: Nervous and anxious. :eek: Grateful. :joyful: More nervous and anxious about something else. :oops: Happy. :)

(How is that combination even possible? :wacky:)
 
Crappy. Sad. Upset. I can feel the anger in there somewhere, but I don't do anger, I'm too afraid to show any anger. Nauseous. Annoyed because I like couldn't figure out how to spell nauseous for the longest f-ing time. Upset. F-ing pissed off that my Flash player decides to crash like every 5 minutes. Just having a really sucky day. It's a suck fest. PTSD sucks. Life sucks.
 
One of my signs has presented. I’m feeling okay about it but a bit cautious - keeping an eye on things. Sometimes things happen that I thought I made happen. For example, I was passing a neighbour’s house the other day just thinking that it used to be milk or newspapers pilling up outside that let burglars know no one was home. Today day it’s no cars in the drive. They have three cars so it’s quite noticeable when there is no one home. A few days later they got burgled! Just a meandering thought but it left me feeling quite vulnerable. Coincidence? or synchronicity? Left me feeling cautious and making a note to think only positive thoughts for awhile. It helps to share the crazy.
 
:- ] Tummy's better. But I'm feeling crappy/pissy :-[

I have a "new" boss of a little over a year . . . Some of the stuff he does just pisses me off, especially when he asks for other people's input on something that I've managed for more than six years - then days/weeks later comes to a decision which is the one I had come to earilier (based on experience which the other folks don't have). Errrgh! Doing that is such a waste of everyone's time and enegy! :rolleyes: And an ding to my ego :cautious: too
