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

[Tinyflame]

I know what it is too, though I probably don't have the correct words to describe it: we 'pretend' so much, that is, most of us project/ present/ do what we have to despite what we're dealing with or experiencing or feeling. In some ways it's an act, even if we prefer it or we need to, or have elements of sincerity or things true to our character embedded (that is how I feel anyway).

But I don't want to be part of anyone else's'act' or 'required' schema, even on the sidelines. I know how I feel about others in mine. That makes me feel, what's the word(?), -'yucky'. :( A burden being part of it.

Also, off the subject, I fear when I complain about anything, 'doom' will follow. That feeling/ fear is always just below the surface, anyways.

I am feeling depressed today but cannot nail down a reason nor a cause. Trying to lift my spirits. Days have both good and bad in them and so far this is a good day. I am functional which I am happy about and have a list of things to do to keep busy and out of my head and I feel so good about that.

I'm morbidly depressed but still stuck on it doesn't matter, let's watch out for the small things, and ffs self don't drive right now.

Like I'm out of my body, but feeling the huge weight of it. IDK, maybe "confounded?"

Cabin fever with 3 kids. I'm feeling a bit bonkers and bored.

@Panda Bear, didn't any of your kids have school today? I know I had to go back... lucky them. ;)

 

[Panda Bear]

No! We had a freak snow and then feezing rain/ice storm that moved in early Sunday and took all day to thaw out today.

We don't have the infrastructure to keep roads open and clear when ice hits. Also, we don't salt our roads either. Fish lovers and all, kills our rivers and streams. Salmon rule :banghead:

It was only bad, my battery died in my van leaving us stuck after it thawed out! My husband works 1hr from home.

@Panda Bear , I understand not wanting to kill the streams and fish as I too am a nature lover. Now that I work for the schools I dream of snow days. :hilarious: None So far this year... Sorry to hear about the van, I hate being stuck without transportation. Hope tomorrow goes splendidly for you. :hug:

@Junebug your post moved me...:hug::hug: Sending warmth and light to the areas that hurt. XxOo

Thank you dear @Recovery4Me . :notworthy: :hug:

I suppose what I think or feel is just silly. But I really have no strength for 1/2 truths anymore. Nor being where I am not wanted.

It's funny, because I always recall that saying of "God's", ~"..My thoughts are not your thoughts, My ways are not your ways.. ". Well I'm sure of course my thoughts aren't God's either of course, but my thoughts aren't the average person's, which is why I think of that saying. It's too bad I wish they were. :( Because I think it, feel it, believe it, live it, etc, doesn't make it correct, or even good. But it's so for me, & in relation to, and in compared to, other's thoughts & ways. My reality. :(

Junebug (((hugs))) doesn't make those thoughts automatically incorrect either. When I was 7 years, I had a series of different thoughts ( or to use your phrase~not the average way of thinking). I was beat for those thoughts and taunted. Now, many of those thoughts or my choice of what reality might be IS reality and the main stream thinking. PTSD does not diminish the nobility of the cause. Believe in you, your dreams and your heart.

I feel a inspirational song coming on...:whistling::clown::hug: Sing it oh Junebug:joyful::hug::)
