Wow, a Part 3. Thanks Anna.

I'm feeling depressed and disappointed in myself today.

Thanks for thinking of me Dee. I'm feeling better tonight. It was just a bad fight I had with my husband last night. It brings the worst out in both of us.

feelings do pass

least · 09-08-2009, 05:55 AM

Feeling depressed and anxious this morning, don't know why. Will try to keep busy with housework and such to keep from thinking about my feelings too much...

scaredykat · 09-08-2009, 08:35 AM

Feeling sad and worried today. Got bad news about my dad. He has Alzheimer's.

least · 09-08-2009, 10:14 AM

Feeling angry and disgusted with dk. She's put me in a bad spot - once again - with not returning the two dvd's I rented for her and her sister last weekend. She told me that they had been returned but the store called me this morning saying they were three days overdue. And since they were rented on my account I'm responsible for the overdue fees. I will NEVER AGAIN rent dvd's for that little brat. She's screwed me over for the last time.

least · 09-09-2009, 05:31 AM

I just realized why I was so depressed yesterday. It was 11 yrs ago yesterday that a good friend (and former counselor) killed himself. He was a medic in Viet Nam, and vets were a large part of his counseling clients. He was my age and I was distraught at his early death. It wasn't until several years later that I found out he killed himself, not died from a heart attack as I was told by his wife.

So no wonder I felt bad all day yesterday. Rest in peace, Keith. I still miss you and wish you hadn't felt that suicide was necessary.

NewLeaf · 09-09-2009, 06:16 AM

Least, Scaredy, Nands....

Just wanted to poke my head in and say I'll be thinking of you guys today. You too, Dee.

Not entirely sure how I feel this morning, but wanted to post here since I need to deal with them. Feelings, that is and they've kind of been all over the place.

Quite frankly, I wonder what today will bring. Off to work now, but I'm sure I'll have a much better idea as to which way the pendulum's swung by the time I get back -- time to unwind.

scaredykat · 09-09-2009, 10:05 AM

Good to seee ya on here Newleaf.

least

Not sure how I feel yet. Kinda of blah.

ananda · 09-09-2009, 11:30 AM

i'm actually feeling strong today

eeks gotta go to work

scaredykat · 09-11-2009, 09:15 AM

I feel all right today. Just trying to stay in the day and not worry about family.

least · 09-13-2009, 07:00 AM

I am feeling depressed and bored today. If I don't get off my @ss and get busy then I'll probably have a movie marathon today after walking the dogs. And if all else fails, I can take a nap.

least · 09-13-2009, 11:33 AM

Took a nap and now feel some better, tho still tired. Having a cup of coffee to 'wake up'. Still bored, not so depressed tho.

least · 09-14-2009, 06:47 PM

alternating between feeling pissedoff and worried cause I don't know when dk is coming home or how she's getting home...

least · 09-15-2009, 05:32 AM

woke up feeling very sick this morning, don't know if last night's stress was the cause.

least · 09-18-2009, 01:31 PM

Feeling anxious cause dk was supposed to spend the weekend with her dad but has decided to stay home instead. I was looking forward to the peace and quiet but now will have to "detach" from her drama and ask God for the peace of mind and strength to deal with her this weekend.

ananda · 09-18-2009, 02:18 PM

very very scared but exited and hopeful at the same time

WantToHeal · 09-18-2009, 02:43 PM

A little lower from the decent day I had yesterday. Specifically a little more anxious. Going to pick up "The Anxiety and Phobia Workbook" tonight and work on it this weekend. Seems to be very highly reviewed.

Especially to those who are feeling a little (or a lot) down today...hang in there!
