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

[Lionheart]

Today, I find myself struggling with Depression, SAD, CFS, FM, PTSD and disturbed sleep patterns.

I'm feeling battle-weary and I'm just going through the motions,....slow motion!!! :( I feel lonely, sad and angry. I feel helpless to do anything about it.

I always suffer with intrusive thoughts when I am ill (emotional reasoning) ie; "I feel bad therefore I must be bad." :unsure::tdown: It is all I can do to stay on top of negative thinking. :cautious:

I feel physically ill, lethargic, weak.

I woke up feeling great. Hard not to when your dog gets all excited that you are up! But, after my therapy appointment, I'm feeling a little down. We have chalked up my recent lack of motivation to stopping my abilify/latuda. Time to find something else that will work that won't be as expensive. Sigh. Can't get in to see the nurse practitioner about it until Dec 11. Have to hang in there. Hopefully it won't get worse.

I had some good sleep and I feel very good right now. I am grateful to feel good anytime it happens. I think of the good feelings as a gift.

Mentally and physically exhausted. Slept 17 hours in the last 5 days. Emotionally totally numb and trying to wake those emotions up!
Triggers are less intense today though.;)

Frustrated at stupid technology issues! My wifi's died on the first day of my holiday!! Trying really hard not to let it get me down.

@jaccat I really hope that you are able to get your wifi back on very soon. I so hear where you are coming from.

I am feeling nervous because I have my first therapy appointment later on in the day. Trying not to freak out.

I don't know what I feel. I woke up and everything started annoying me. People keep talking and it's annoying me. The tv is annoying me. I feel like almost everything and almost every sound is annoying me. My therapist would ask me what I need in this moment and I'd probably say I don't know but I think I need quiet.

Why do people have so much to say? Why do 2 tvs have to be on with the volume up too loud? Why does my mom have to say everything to the dog twice? Telling it it's such a good dog yes it's a good dog. Why does my mom have to say it in a voice that's 10 times higher than her regular speaking voice?

Why is everything annoying me? That's annoying too. I feel sad too. I can tell because I keep starting to cry at all of the most stupid and pointless things. Last night watching tv I started crying every time people talked about anything with emotion. And I kind of feel restless. I feel like I need to do some deep breathing and distract myself. Maybe I'll read and sit on the deck for a little while. I don't know. Reading does sound good.

Very sad at the passing of my sister yesterday. Heart aches. Grief.

@Pottershand I'm sorry to hear that. My condolences to you and your family.

@Pottershand I'm so very sorry to hear that. I couldn't even imagine. My sympathy.

@Pottershand, keeping you and your family in my heart and thoughts. I am sorry for your loss.

Quote......."Sad today. I couldn't make it to my T appointment and the lessening hours of daylight is depressing me. I hate the winter."

I'm with you on that one, I hate this time of year. I've been told that I've got SAD. "seasonal adjustment disorder?" That's just a name they gave it.
