I am feeling: Stressed, on edge and anxious. Also kind of: determined and ... determined. Very determined ahahah. IT SHALL NOT WIN! :P

I got out and met new people twice last weekend.

Wow that is GREAT!

I am feeling great today. Went out with a really good friend and she told me that I was not their victim any longer and I was feeling sorry for myself which I was. She gave me all kinds of good advise to use.

What a good friend you have that will call you on stuff and has your best interest at heart.

What a good friend you are to let your friend call you on stuff and you think it through and you take it on. This is pretty impressive in my book.

In order to relay some information in a particular thread, I just gave a brief outline of the sexual abuse that I suffered as a child. I can't believe it but I feel very proud of myself and not at all disgusted or disgusting.

I have come a long way on my healing journey and for perhaps the first time, I feel deeply proud of, and happy about, the man I have become!!! I feel peaceful inside, free, and healed, so that I am beside myself with joy.

I hope this doesn't mean the journey is over.... I never want to get so complacent that I take too much time off from healing myself and my life to the greatest degree that I can!!!

Healing is a blessing that I am glad that I didn't miss out on, as so many have...I could have ended up dead, so in that respect, although I was severely abused as a child, I still consider myself to be very lucky!!!

So many emotions! I felt anger, frustration, irritation, impatience, crankiness and annoyance, yet I mostly contained myself and I did okay.

I had insight and I actually did stuff in response to that insight! So I feel pleased.

Tired. Sad. Kind of hopeful, but the gross fatigue puts a heavy blanket on my feelings.

I am feeling stronger than all this garbage inside and outside my head. I need to set more boundaries. Thanks @gizmo.

I'm so glad for you that you're experiencing this, @Lionheart777 !

Trying to keep my son's stuff(his missing school) separate from my internal stuff so as to not stress myself out(too much). I got out today, because I had to take my dog in to be groomed. She was so shaggy! This is good. It is always good that I get out. Don't need to sit here and mope.

Lonely. Hurt. Abandoned. Grossly vulnerable. Sort of angry. Anger at self and others that's attempting to cover the hurt and keep the tears at bay. Impatient with PTSD and stress in general and the whacked pace of the lives we're expected to live. Feeling like this life is just way way too complicated for me to cope with.

Happy to have finished 3 icons (I took several months to do this) They will be mailed out soon. I am happy too because I am carving icons in soapstone. I had been a stonecarver from age 16 to 45. Now, I get to work with stone in a smaller platform than my previous 250lbs boulders. I didn't lift them. You lift them a little toward verticle then turn them to the side you wish to work. By 45 my stone weight had gone down to 100lbs. Way, Way too small. Thank God for giving me back myn first love.

I feel tired. I'm sick and I have croup again and I have asthma and it's making me wheeze. I already did a breathing treatment. And I have a headache. I just don't feel good. My thoughts keep trying to distort. I wish I could take a day off from them.
