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

[Spiderallis]

T-time isn't for another few hours yet and I'm pretty sure I can feel something bubbling up to the surface. Thus far it's stirred up a bunch of physical issues and discomforts that I know are really emotions being misdirected. It's really uncomfortable.

@Snowwhite, aww thank you, that was sweet and I'll try to keep your advice in mind, grateful for that. Apologies for responding late, I haven't seen your message sooner.

What I'm feeling today is some mix of anger & inspiration so basically inspiration, anger's my baseline for 'I'm alright', the other bits to feelings I'm yet to figure out because the rest of my head isn't talking to me. DID problems gee.

Tired, panicky, hyperalert, depressed, stressed.

My back pain kept me awake most of last night, if it wasn't the pain it was the usual insonmia. I've noticed I'm shuffling my feet when I walk and carrying even the small amount of shopping I had to do today was enough for me. Everything just feels so heavy. My brain feels scrambled and I awoke several times in the night to turn a light out that wasn't even on.

I feel like I've taken 1 step forwards and about 100 backwards.

Yea! I know what you mean, I suffer from chronic back pain, and it stops me from doing many things like I would like to do?

I get so frustrated with it, it ruins my life, and if that's not enough, I still have these mood swings and nightmares, which are really hard to live with, as I have no control over them at all

I am feeling on cloud nine because I am going to start my first college class since 1975. I am making a lifetime goal come true for me a dream I have hidden in my heart for so many years. i cannot believe this is really happening. I feel so awesome right now.

If the usual back pain wasn't enough to deal with, today it kept going into spasm. Had no sleep again last night, tomorrow my GP has agreed to a telephone consultation as he only saw me on Friday.

I have so much to do and I can't get any of it done, I managed to do some washing up today and that was about it. Furthest I've been is to get the bin in before it was nicked.

I'm getting tired of being in pain and tired of wingeing about it.

I am feeling pretty darn good today. I am a official registered student who applied for a parking permit all by myself and they will send it in the mail. I am feeling very sore from lugging around heavy things so when I bought my books today, I also got a good backpack which makes a world of difference. I feel so different now and am so inspired and happy and content. i had my first class today and have the next four days off to stay at home and take the girls swimming. I feel so darn contented and at ease. I am amazed at how well I am doing around strangers. No triggers at all and I have found that people are really friendly and so very helpful. I am just feeling great. Next goal is to go to the counselor and have her help me to find a full time job.

I know exactly how you feel, as I also have chronic back pain, and it can Hell to live with. The only thing I can do, is make the best of any of the "better days" if I'm lucky enough to have any?

I also find it extremely frustrating as I've always been an active person, always on the go, and my brain thinks I can still do things, but my body can't?

Oh @Gadgie I know exactly what you mean. Have to keep reminding myself that although my mind is about 16, my body is nearly 50.

:depressed:. I have a cold, at least I think that's what it is. But hey, at least I can think straight today.

I'm nervous about not understanding what is so uncomfortable. I can't place it, there's just something vaguely bothering me.

I am feeling very fulfilled right now. I am so content and feel so peaceful. I have four days to study and I am struggling with the reading but I know that my quest is a good one ensuring a better future for myself. I did not give up on my dream and feeling very satisfied about this.

I am feeling so good about being able to keep the girls until Sunday and have some real fun with them.\

I am worried about my daughter and the surgery she has to have.
