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

Apologies for posting again so soon. New stuff is surfacing. I feel like I'm going crazy. I actually sometimes wonder if I am, if I've made everything up and am actually crazy.
That's what this thread is for... so I think you should post just as much as you need to! I just... I wanted to say I SO empathize with that feeling... like, what I went through, it can't be possible, did I just make this stuff up, am I crazier than I think I am? And I constantly have to remind myself that I *DID* go through it all... that I probably only remember a fraction of the bad stuff and that I'm amazing to still be here, to be able to get outta bed in the morning.

I really, really get that feeling of having new things surfacing and not being able to believe everything that happened to me actually happened. Lots and lots of hugs. :hug: Hang in there. Be kind to yourself. I don't know exactly what your history is... but I know whatever happened, it *DID* happen and you deserve so much compassion for surviving and for facing these things now.
I am worthless of any love.
That's so not true, and I hope you know that! You are so worth being loved! This stuff is all so hard and fills us all with doubts, but hang in there, just keep moving forward. Hugs! :hug:

Am I going a little crazy with the hugs here? I don't think so. Lots of love and hugs to all the wonderful people on this forum. I hope you all find a pocket of peace today, even if only for a few minutes. :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug:

@franciemarnie, so sorry about this thing, this Prirformis Syndrome. Please don't take this the wrong way... but all I can think (and sometimes I have a sick stupid sense of humor) is that for you, exercise really is a pain in the butt! :wtf: ;) :) (Sorry, sorry, sorry... maybe I shouldn't have said that... I was just joking around. When things really bite, sometimes all you can do is joke and laugh. I have my fingers crossed for you that this is just a passing thing... because I'm with you, I don't think I could keep it together without lots of exercise. Feel better soon!) :hug:
 
@EverOnly358 - LOL! Re pain in the butt. Actually the dif between sciatica and Piriformis is that I have no pain when I walk - only sitting and lying down. But I like to do squats and lunges to keep my power core and that hurts to do, and is a pain in the butt! It is another challenge which now doesn't bug me so much. I like finding ways to transcend the system.

Feel good in all ways - save butt.
 
I am having a PTSD day and feeling like I need to run (like fight or flight). I was in my dad's 2nd floor hospital room when a code red came over the loudspeaker. There was a fire on the 1st floor. There were strobe lights, alarms, and the nurse shut the door and locked us in. All the visual and auditory things going on put me right back to being in 2 WTC on 9/11/01. I felt like I had to run but couldn't move my legs. I felt myself go numb and felt like I was going to pass out. Lightheaded and all. I guess I'm no good at emergency situations. I'm going to take it easy the rest of the night and try and calm down more.
