How Are You Feeling Right Now?

[Angie]

I hope your appointment went well Angie and that today is a better day.

Thank you. I have an infection of some sort according to my blood work, so have to start an antibiotic.

Wish you could stop with all these infections. Heal quickly.

I wish I could read and help others here but I'm hanging on to my health and venting here.

Helping others is great, but that's only something someone should do if they can do that without bringing themselves down. I don't think anyone would want you to post if it were at the cost of your own health a well being.

There's lots of other members here, and I think we've mostly got a handle on things. I hope you'll get settled soon and that everything will be ok.

Hugs

I wish I could go back in time to when I was 19 years old and somehow convince myself that I’m worthy of happiness and self-respect regardless of what I am, what has happened to me, and whether or not I have anyone in my life to help me see that.

You are worthy of happiness and self-respect. I hope that hearing that from someone else helps.

Please, Dear God, no more

I'm sorry things are so bad. You're welcome to say more about what's going on if you'd like to. I understand if you don't feel ready to talk about it, but I hope you will if it will help.

Wishing you good things.

My throat feels scratchy because I'm getting over a cold, and my brain's empty.

Aw, I hope you feel better.

Emotionally & physically tired. Also have a bad tension headache. Had a difficult time coming home from work last night & then into the night. I was up to 4:00 am this morning. It'll be a tough day. Not looking forward to it.

I'm sorry you feel that way, is there anything I can help with? And even though it might be tough, please don't give up, the day may get better. Also headaches suck, I can relate. lol

Am in the cardiac unit in the local hospital. Little nervous as they have not found the root cause of my condition and planning on the surgery tomorrow. Say a prayer for me that they find a non invasive treatment but I doubt it.

i'm so sorry that i missed this . i hope you are doing better now

I'm struggling but holding on. That's the best way I can put it at the moment. Work is a two-sided coin. It's a distraction yet very tiring because I'm going into it very exhausted with what's going on in my life with my mental & emotional health.

sorry i'm late. work can be an enjoyable experience or an incredible disaster to us. before i became disabled i was a tru workaholic. i loved working because i always found jobs that i liked. of course if you are tired a lot due to mental health issues even an enjoyable job would be hard. i hope you can get some help and be better rested

Sounds like you are making great progress during a stressful time. I hope your depression and stress level stays at a minimum.

thank you. we have made great progress. we are signing the lease on a senior housing apartment on monday. we didn't want to tell anyone how bad it really was. our anxiety and depression levels were around 9 or 10 out of 10, the only thing that saved us was more meds. i'd say it dropped to about a 5 with the apartment confirmation today. i think it's great and will come down more after we we get settled

Feel lonely today. At work even the team lead noticed I wasn't myself. I told her I was just tired. I think I just spend too much time alone. My children are grown and do their own thing. All of my friendships were based around the kids, like other moms. Or when I worked at the club, other girls there. Now I really don't have any one. I try to deal with it as best as I can. Night time and weekends are the hardest.

sorry i'm late. i'm sorry to be honest and blunt but you have 2 choices. remain alone and lonely or try to remedy that. it's hard and i agree once the kids go we lose more contact than just our children. try to have as much contact with your adult chldren but that can't be your whole life anymore. i can't list all of the ways you can make friends but i know you can because of how easy you make frends here. if you lived close i'd love to be your irl friend. please try to put yourself out there and try to make meaningful friends again. i will make an observation though. parents who love their children and put everything to make their child be well rounded and successful adults are lost when they leave. that is a very hard void to fill.

I know this is wrong but I feel stupid for a teaction i had. They remarked on that I'd eaten more fish than they thought and I took it to mean I over-ate, using up too much food that they wanted as leftovers for tomorrow. And that I'm a glutton. After a run I like a large filet of white fish, so that's what I bought, and ate. Now I feel like I shoiuld ask them to portion out my meal for me. But. I bought it, shouldn't I be able to consume it without comments. I don't know. I don't know what to think when someone comments on how much I eat or what I eat. I'm not overweight, afaik. 139 and 5'8.5.

you exercise and are a healthy weght so i say eat what you want. besides good whitefish is low in calories

Ripped up my artwork. I am a worthless, trapped loser.

you are not a worthless loser. i'm sorry you ripped up your artwork. next time if you feel like this please put the artwork in a closet for at least a month before you decide on anything
