How Are You Feeling Right Now?

Weird. In the dentist I nearly spilled the mouthwash cup all over the place, my hand was shaking so badly. Adrenaline from the waterboarding. Now, as 3pm approaches I seem to be feeling slightly more relaxed and myself again. Not perfect but better than the first 6 hours of the day. Wish I knew how to improve those first 6 hours, it's an ordeal taking 6 hours to wake up properly and feeling so anxious for half the day.

I get the slow wake up in the morning, too. I have to get out of bed 2 hours before I can get anywhere, and then when I start working it’s another 2 hours just to re-establish what I was doing yesterday. I guess 4 is less than 6 hours, so I should take it, but I’m using a lot of coffee to make it happen.

Yeah I'm usually slow to wake up and get going, but not THIS slow. I'm going to work on being functional after 4 hours 💪

Weird again. I could barely have felt iller when I got up. Sick, shaky, nose streaming, nauseous, exhausted, eyes streaming, yawning and a sense of total despair about ever feeling right.

Currently I couldn't imagine feeling much better, though do still feel a bit tired.

This has been a pattern the last 3-4 days, so when I get up I just have to force myself to get through the first hour, then another hour, until things start to improve. Feels terrible though, that first period. 🤷

Not feeling 100%. Seem to do better as long as I don't do anything. Managed to eat despite the nausea and malaise, still not as bad as first half of the day but not lifting altogether. Probably have a bit of anxiety as my friend is supposed to be picking me up and taking me to her house tomorrow, but there are warnings everywhere about not travelling, so if the weather turns out as bad as they're saying, it might not happen, so I don't have any certainty about how tomorrow will go, but have to plan as if it's going to happen anyway 🤔

Irritated, exhausted. I'm worked up about the pressure to be ready to move things tomorrow. I'm not done. Son left some junk in a storage area more than I thought.. I asked if I could make it for the next day. no reply. He's busy, he's a landlord. Its enough he offered to help me move, movers cost a fortune for what I have.

I have to push myself in the morning and hope I have enough plastic tubs because I can't just drive and go get them. If I could drive my car it would be easier. Actually I just thought of it now, I'll ask the neigbor above who offered to help to shove the junk in my car. I wish this had worked here, but at the same time I'm relieved to leave. I complain again, but this boy can't help it upstairs. I'm not mean, but he runs all day and humms. It's ok, but I stay home all day. If I worked, it likely wouldn't bother me.

I'll have no internet until I can set something up there, here the neigbors let me use theirs. The rent will be less, heat less since it's a smaller place.

Apprehensive. I hate going to bed at the best of times, but lately the pattern is that I go to bed feeling great, and wake up feeling like complete shit, so I kind of don't want to signal the end of feeling good by going to bed. Maybe tomorrow will be different, will see what the weather is doing and if my friend can still pick me up to go for food and playing with the dog at her house.
