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

[Chincho]

I'm feeling better after two weeks on Pristiq.

I was really angry that I need to take some drug to feel well and I can't deal with my PTSD without it. I saw my psychiatrist today and she was really sweet but firm when she said I should accept the fact that I'll probably have to take some medicine for a long time if not forever. Now I'm working on acceptance.

Surprised and insecure. I reacted in a way today...that is...so untypical for me. I had an angry outburst - at work. I cried out loud, ran to my office, slammed the door and threw my notebook across my desk....:confused: ....I really don't know what happened to me. It was just; everything was too much for me! Couldn't do the house search (we couldn't find the flat, there were no names written anywhere...:meh:), didn't get any information from the house management (data safety measures....:devilish:), wanted to put the car back in the garage and some stupid jerk was too dumb to read the signs at the places and put the car on the right place. I had to wait for more than half an hour until some chick came along to put the car on the right place...:cautious: (I also couldn't park the car somewhere else because all places are for certain departments...), I was hungry, had low blood sugar, needed to go to the toiled and when I returned to my department...they told me "there's someone with a warrant and you shall be the one who already has some information - so you shall handle it..."...that was the point where I snapped...and I really did! :arghh;:arghh;:arghh; GROAR!

I apologized to the two colleagues later one, because that's so not my way of acting...but still...I don't know how to handle anger. I've got the choice to suffocate or to cry...and that makes me feel insecure - I never learned....

My stepsister has stopped talking to me and I do not know why. This has left me feeling very sad. I try not to care but that just isn't me. I know she wrote off my dad and other sister. Maybe it is my turn. She hasn't unfriended me on facebook yet. I have to learn not to care. I can't control what she does.

I feel unwanted and unloved, I worry that I will never find a girlfriend at my age (54) and I am depressed and very lonely as well as sexually frustrated. I feel helpless because I am trying everything I know how to meet a woman who is interested in me and I am not having any luck at all. :(:(:cry:

I feel ok and that is good enough for me. I get the girls tomorrow and feel so happy and excited about this to look forward to. I am relaxing and it is getting cooler now so that makes me feel very good.

@Anrish I can relate to the big meltdown. I have had them myself and feel shame afterwards and think that I am insane but I am not. Usually it is because of talking to a person who does not see nor hear me and has their own agenda for me. I never learned yet either and I am so trying to learn now because i have learned that staying calm produces better results so I get to practice this and learn how to be civil when I am highly emotional. I need to buy some time but I have a really had time doing that so my heart goes out to you and welcome to PTSD. You are not alone friend. Many hugs.

I am feeling happy and excited about getting the girls for the weekend for a visit. I am feeling determined to do well on my quiz I have to take today. I am feeling very good today. A lot better than yesterday.

It's like I used up all my feelings for the day earlier. I thought I might've been angry but knew it was about something that is not here nor now and then confusion and scared and more confused and I'm done having feelings for now. That was too many, I need a break from all this.

@gizmo: Thank you for your understanding words. It really calmed me down that I'm not alone with such outbursts.

I'm feeling like I accomplished a lot today. I feel calm and like I'm about to dive into fantasy world for the next days. I miss some of my imaginary friends.

I'm feeling sad. Today is 8 months since my husband passed away.

 

[Deleted member 12723]

@Chincho I am so sad to hear that your husband died eight months ago. You have my deepest sympathies for going through so much grief. I do understand how you feel because my husband died two years ago and the first year seems to be the hardest. You are in my prayers for relief for you from the grief and all else involved.

There is so much to do when that happens and I remember going through it and my heart goes out to you in a very big way. I have no words to fully express how very sorry I am that he is gone. Many healing hugs.

I am feeling very happy, contented and peaceful having fun with the girls today. Now I am so relaxed because we are listening to music and it is Pink Floyd now my oldest granddaughter is picking the music. It is very cozy and happy here right now. One more day with them have to make the most of the time left.
