How Are You Feeling Right Now?

[FlamingoWrangler]

It is burden and stress. Even sometimes when I breath, it automatically sobs. It's weird. I was fine a few months ago, I want to get rid of this feeling.

I hope the heaviness eases.
The sobs seem to sneak out unexpectedly when a soul is fractured. I hope you can find a way to lessen your stress and get rid of that heaviness.

Like death is knocking at my door.

Like death is knocking at my door.

That is how I feel so much of the time, like so many here. Beaten down by everything around, physically and mentally.

 

[Windhover]

I'd like to talk about how I feel but also not to broadcast my continuing shame.

I go to sleep thinking "what am I going to do" and I wake up the same way.

Sitting with this anxiety while I somehow work out issues regarding cancer surgery is so difficult.

Let me know how the warranty thing works out, @1964dodge . Lol

@Lane sorry about the bite. sucks to help someone out only to get bit by their dog. I used to daydream about my grandmas dog with no teeth.. It made me a little less scared.. 🤪

@seabird it’s a painful anniversary. So many emotions. Be kind to you.

I started following a local police officer that was shot. A local program did a “hometown hero” type thing this morning. I shot a picture of the tv and sent it to him. He didn’t know he was featured. I didn’t realize it, but it was the anniversary of his being shot in the line of duty.
More about bad anniversaries later.

I read all the feeling. I hear you, even though I can’t respond to everyone right now.

several weeks ago I fell and injured my shoulder. I have iced & taped it in an attempt to heal it. No progress. Went in for evaluation. Need MRI for likely rotator cuff tear. NOT enough ice and tape was used!

Stay upright folks, falling sucks.

Frantically trying to figure out transportation to cancer surgery on December 3rd.

Its a long drive through major traffic to a big city.

Waiting for a call from a social worker, if that doesn't pan out I am dependent on strangers pretty much.

This sucks.

Heavy weight in my chest

Like death is knocking at my door.

unfortunately, the reaper isn't knocking on our door yet, he's just lurking in the shadows but won't commit to the bit yet lol

Feel your pain with HMRC - total *******s

Are these the same people that stop pension payments to retirees because the system says they are dead (but they are not, in fact, dead)? I heard a story that I don’t know if it was literal or just an illustration, but it described an elderly gentleman who walks into the office to try and prove he is still alive, and the clerk believes the system over the flesh and blood guy standing in front of her.
F**king bureaucracy!

Yeah - they're currently targeting people who've sold stuff on Ebay etc to help with cost of living, trying to tax them as businesses - threatening letters etc. They have access to bank accounts, PayPal, etc, so can just pluck the numbers and if you don't contest it, you're a business and must pay up.... don't know how it is in the US.

A social worker from the hospital is supposed to call in the next two days. I'm just so upset and having a hard time with this.

Angie, I hope the surgery and the drive will go smoothly somehow. Thinking of you and sending positive thoughts.

 

[puffymilk]

Feeling a tiny bit better

Feel dare a say it a bit proud of myself today had to go see the Doctor so today was the first time I have left the house in 2 months doing that makes me feel a little good

also Doc told me I am not fit for work and gave me a fit note for the next 2 months told me to put 100% into healing my depression and getting back on the right track

Guess I'm going to live with pain in my hip for the rest of my life. Physical therapy has not really done much to reduce either the severity or the occurrence of it. So much for exercising not smoking or drinking much - these choices have not prevented the damn pacemaker or the arthritis in the hip. Good thing I enjoy exercise though. Going to start a thread in the Long Term Physical Illness category of the forum so I don't take up much space here. I take up too much space in real life.

Toasty. Just got out for my night walk, literally freezing out there, but house is at least warm and dry for now.
