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

[ms spock]

I feel more here.

 

[jaccat]

Tired, ill, run down, fed up, just want to sleep but don't have time.

 

[moonbeam]

Hungry. Tired. Confused. Unhappy.

:hug: Hugs for anyone who could use one! (I'm not sure how I'm feeling today yet.)

@Kim500 : Thanks for the book recommendation. I will check whether I can get it here - but it sounds really helpful. Thanks a lot and also some hugs for you. :hug:

I'm feeling less aggressive than yesterday, but disappointed...and like there's too much at once for me to deal with...and that I can't fulfill all expectations of other people.

I guess you could say I have been feeling like I'm not really myself lately, and noticed that it started the day after my brother in law made a complete ass of himself by going overboard on drinking to much alcohol and was being very aggressive towards my wife and myself, which triggered me really badly. As he was being extremely rude and extremely disrespectful and trying to start a fight with me the only thing going on in my head was how to defend my family and take him out if I had to. He was doing nothing but attacking, and even though he has apologized and agreed that he went to far and agreed that we won't have any alcohol in the house and that he wants to look into going to AA. My subconscious keeps me on guard whenever I'm around him. I trust him with our boys but I just can't shake this feeling. He has unknowingly shown me that he can be trusted since the incident but it's just tough.

I'm cold and confused.

I'm so EFFIN angry! Some dude who thinks he's my friend just crossed my boundaries big time.
If I didn't have PTSD it would probably not be a big deal, but he knows I have it and he crossed me anyway.

If I were to be honest to him right now, I'd tell him "bite me...!" :mad:

I feel like I am containing my thought cascades can rumination. I did extra listening to "The Mindful Way Through Depression" this morning to counter the feelings/thoughts spiral down.

and that I can't fulfill all expectations of other people.

Thank you for the hugs dear Anrish!!! When I read 'Co-Dependent No More' I realized that it's not my job at all to fulfill the expectations of other people. I have my own soul, my own SELF, my own beliefs, my own path that I should follow, and THAT now decides what I will or will NOT do for other people. If I just did what others wanted, I would be a mannequin, not a real person. I was created to be who I am, and that alone. I'm not perfect at it believe me, but by cutting down a lot on doing what others want that I do NOT want to do has helped greatly in saving my sanity.

Radise go on with your bad self and tell him how you feel and mabe you could consider fading this so called friend out of your life. Just my opinion. I seem to always fight back when I am pushed into a corner. I wish you the best in whatever you decide to do.

I am feeling peaceful and content today. I do not know why.

Much better. Like my fever broke in the night. Clear headed, relaxed.
