What Moved You Emotionally Today?

I am at the local library, happy that myptsd.com works here. I was not sure that it would, as it didn't used to for a bit there, but obviously it does work now. I think they gone som4e newer computers, thankfully. I have not been here in awhile, as I have to walk here and it is winter.... Anyway, happiness is a blessing today, so I am pleased. Getting some exercise helped too.

So I know this didn't emotionally move me today but I'm ready to say that I was emotionally moved by this even. It was Wednesday evening and I asked my wife and her brother to watch a video that explained what PTSD is and the four different main types of symptoms and my eyes filled with tears because I could relate 100% to the video

@holdenmonty Did it at least help them to understand you a little bit more?

@SheilaKathy it did, my wife has came around to being more of a supporter than hoping it would go away around the begining of October, but it has really helped her brother understand me a lot better and him seeing me accidently start to tear up watching it with them showed him how much of a constant struggle it is for me and he has been a lot less judgemental towards me since he watched it.

Day 8. I was moved by a young colleague of mine, who threw himself into a challenge I gave him and did a greater job than I imagined possible. He's quite shy and nervous too. It's my ambition to build him up in confidence, he's so hardworking.

Some song lyrics made little more sense to me today. Completely moved me! :inlove:

That my best friend bursted into tears of you after I showed her yesterday's post I wrote in here...and the response of @Recovery4Me. She was so happy and moved by our words and reaction - and that moved me.

Felled by the flu for a bit but can pick it up where I left off so I'm behind 2 or three days...

Day 6: Took a client to Dairy Queen last evening for his butter finger blizzard and saw a great blue heron making a nest in the cypress wetland next door. Beautiful bird and it reminded me of the blue heron feather I gave my dad and he wore it in his hat. His last gift from me.

I was moved to seething resentment today by the phone company, who kept me on hold for half and hour, then kept me pushing buttons for an hour and none the less succeeded in doing NOTHING to benefit my phone. They said something about that it would take another hour or so for it to "adjust" but nothing has happened so far and an hour has passed. So that is about 2 hours of wasted time and an hour and a half of tying up my neighbor's phone, all for NOTHING! I am ticked off.

Day 9, moved to sadness thinking about my dad.

Watching someone steal a dime from a soldiers grave. What bad karma! What a lack of morals...

Day 9


... is knowing the odds, but trying again anyway.

Been sad, not defeated.
Got behind, got back up.
Lamented and tasted fear... time to sup on cheese and courage.
