How Are You Feeling Right Now?

[AvidFan]

been fighting a cold or flu or some type of bug. obviously when i'm sick my chronic pain gets worse. i'm finally starting to get better, it takes more time to bounce back when ou get older lol

I am starting to find this. I have bounced back from a lot of things in my time, but currently whatever I'm experiencing is sapping my strength and hope, as much as I keep trying to bounce back. It's hard. Trying to take it one day at a time. Hope you feel much better soon.

Broken. I've gone to bed at 10.27pm. I'm starting to worry I'm not coming back from whatever this is. ☹️

I hope that you will be coming back. It is tough and something I am experiencing more as time goes on.

How I'm feeling is chiaroscuro. Glad for my run today, sad for brokenheartedness, glad and grateful for certain people and things, angry about someone and circumstances.

Made a lazy people meal today, running out alots so need to go groceries today or tmrw but I'm hoping my kitties aunt can help clean my cats so I'm waiting for that.

Absolutely terrible. I feel like I've been stepped, spit and crapped on for a lifetime. If you combine the resultant indignance with my what is my keen awareness of a total lack of future prospects, then you have my current mental state. This is a chronic issue and it feels as though there's only one way to resolve it.

I am glad to hear from you for the first time in a while - but sorry to hear of your ongoing circumstances. I'm afraid I don't have any words of wisdom, I feel in a similar state without feeling much hope at the moment so all I can offer you is my solidarity and ❤️

Horribly depressed.

Need to get into the shower. Don’t even know how.

Need to send back an expensive book I ordered. The second copy I need to send back because defective (but in very different ways). Feels stupid to even try to order it a third time. And this supposedly trivial matter really suck the last bit of energy out of me.

Hey, just sending you some positive words of encouragement. I know it's hard, when you're in this position. And everybody's mind kind of works differently. For some, it's about breaking it down into parts. Or steps (mini). Others, it's to just "do," & not 'think.' For me, in this situation, I might try to attack or challenge my ego. And say, or taunt myself, into believing, "Well? I bet you can't do this thing..." To which I generally reply: 'oh, yes? you wanna bet!'

I'm alive. Considering reinstating the amitriptyline, if only to try to figure out if it helps and makes all this go away - confirming it's withdrawal and not something more sinister going on. I mean in the middle of everything I had another shitty cancellation this week, so am more money down, and while I was at the office the ceiling light fixture managed to fall apart and fall right on me. Never happened before in the 150 year history of the building in any of the dozens of offices, apparently. Ever get the feeling the universe just has it in for you?

Thank you for words of encouragement. It helped a little. Breaking it down in smaller steps usually works for me. Ended up working now too, even though it felt hopeless at first.

Just so ready to leave this world. Always tired. So fat, but just want to eat. Eat bad stuff of course. Only real pleasures in life is bed time shower or bath, my teddy bears, and sleep.

 

[AvidFan]

So so. I've reinstated. Now wait some hours to see if it makes any difference, or it might take a few days. The literature suggests if symptoms resolved fairly quickly, we can be pretty sure discontinuation has been the source of all my woes. But time will tell. After 3 weeks I could not go on any more without trying something.

Putting feelings where they can't hurt me, which for me means being active. If I can't make them stop tehn I'll throw them in the furnace of workouts and runs. That installed virus of self-judging leftover catholic crap can just f*** off.

Sometimes I wish we could be more like Mr. Spock of Star Trek. No feelings. But the would be problematic too. We learn to self-judge when we are young and never seem able to unlearn it.

Very lonely

He surpressed his emotions.

I'm stuck on a loop. It's got to change, I know that it will, don't know when is all. I suspect I'm still carrying around another person's garbage, and I want it gone.
I am also deeply sad about how this world would seem to be better off without humans.

My daughter lost her job and my son in school full time but still working, I feel the stress of meeting all the bills. Then there's my own mental health issues like my repetitive thoughts, or how I keep going back and seeing how I could have done my life differently. Then my daughter would likely speak to me and introduce her baby to me. Its a trade-off. I accept her ambivelance. I feel like it's my punishment or sentence for being a hedonistic person in the past.
