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

Woke up feeling rather happy :) today: glad the hassles with family holiday plans are over, that we got together and had a good time. My daughter (who contributed to one aspect of my PTSD) :blackeye: was invited to the holiday get together yesterday. I did not know she'd be going :wideeyed: and hadn't seen her on Christmas for, I don't know how long, maybe nine or ten years. :speechless: I was a bit spooked when I saw her, :eek: but there was very little interaction between us, what there was, was good, :whistling: she didn't stay long :rolleyes: and I wasn't triggered by her presence as I usually am. So, feeling good and proud of myself for that! :tup:

I slept eleven hours last night and the night before. :tup: :tup: :tup: Yea! I've got energy today! :D And I've got lots of adult things to do: get the car towed (it broke down yesterday), clean the house, pay bills, blaa, blaa, blaa . . .:coffee:
 
I'm anxious and frustrated and tired. I've been wrestling with distorted thoughts all day. It's so exhausting to go over and over and over and over and argue and argue and challenge them. I sat outside in the sun. I had a cup of hot tea. I took a little nap. I've even been reading articles on how to stop distorted thoughts. I feel like I'm just going in circles and not really getting much relief.

It is so truly hard I have immense compassion for you.
