not feeling good

not feeling good

At the moment i am not feeling good. i feel like my body is in 'run away mode'. i feel my body is running on a high, my head is so mixed up. i have to go to bed and try to sleep, but don't know if i can.

my hormones are everywhere at the moment; my mood is sky high negative. i can't deal with this anymre. all of a sudden i am not feeling good. i think it is anxiety.

i don't know why i feel like this; i just want to cry but can't becsue everyone is home. i am going to bed. i don't know what is going on. actually maybe it is anxiety because i felt like passing out today.

I went to my GP to have my mirena IUD taken out as I had had enough. But he couldn't find the string, so he sent me for a ultrasound. Had that and the guy said i had two fibroids and a cyst on my ovary. but he couldn't find the string either, so had to have an xray to find the metal piece. they didn't tell me anything. but while waiting i was so anxious i almost passed out.

so now i have to wait for tomorrow when my GP will call me at work and let me know what will happen now. hopefully he can take the mirena out. i don't know.

my body is reacting to my anxiety - i feel so shaky, i need to stop. no point telling anyone at home becasue (a) they won't believe me and (b) they prob wouldn't care.

sorry, i had to tell someone. i feel so alone 😞

Re: not feeling good

@BlueBay. My god. Your family would be devastated - especially your daughter - being pregnant. She needs her mum to help her navigate her first pregnancy and baby. She needs her mum more now than at any other time. She is excited and scared at the same time. She will be worrying about finances and the health of the baby, and if she will cope with the pregnancy and the tired long nights. She will need you to help get her through the birth. It's a scary time for a new mum.
And don't even start me off on all of your friends - both here and in your world.
It's just the negative self talk and depression talking at the moment.
So we need to switch your brain pattern tonight. We'll do it together.
@Faith-and-Hope spoke about breathing. Calm slow gentle breathing.
Just thinking about breathing in .... breathing out .... seeing yourself sitting on your rocking chair ... underneath the palms .... breathing in ..... listening to the gentle waves .... breathing out .... can you hear the birds .... can you feel that soft gentle breeze on your skin .... it's so quiet and soothing here .... a feeling of peace .... nothing to think about .... but breathing .... nothing to do but listen to the gentle waves ..... gentle breathes .... I'm sitting besides you ... simply breathing in .... and breathing out ...

Re: not feeling good

Breathe @BlueBay .... breathe.....

Your daughter needs you and so does your grand baby ....

Your sons need you .... you are still central to their world. ....

The pain is strong right now, but it will subside again .... you just need to wait it out while the storm passes and we are all here with you to sit with you through it.

It matters because you matter ....

You matter and your feelings matter ....

Stay with us @BlueBay ......

We are staying with you.

❤️💕

Re: not feeling good

Hi @BlueBay. I've just gone to bed. But before I sleep I'm going to close my eyes and focus on my breathing. Then I'm going to go toy beautiful safe country and mountains.
Lush green grass. Blue sky. A creek with gentle flowing water. Birds in the trees. The smell of eucalyptus in the air. The breeze blowing gently through the trees. The sound of insects in the background.
It such a calming place to visit. Peaceful. Soothing. Reenergising. You are welcome to come and spend time in my country / on my mountain, if you like. No one else will be there. Just the animals. Drinking from the creek. The birds chatting in the trees. I love the soft gentle breeze I can feel on my skin. It is a beautiful place. You can share it with me.
Simply close your eyes .... and focus on your breath ... you can take my hand if you'd like .... or I can just walk beside you.
Can you see how beautiful it is? The flowers are perfect. Butterflies hovering over them... drinking up the nectar. Find a place to sit or lie here .... and breath in that clean air ....
I'll lie here for a while and listen to the water flowing gently past. ....
Sweet dreams my friend

Re: not feeling good

Everything is getting to me at the moment. tears, anxiety and stress. depression not good, physcially not feeling too good. headaches.

can't talk to anyone, just want to go away. maybe running away is the way to go. i hate this feeling i am sorry to all of you for causing so much worry.

i am being a real pest being on here ranting and raving.

sorry, my life sucks. everything

Re: not feeling good

Good to hear from you @BlueBay even if you are not feeling good. You are not a pest - EVER. You are hurting and need support. I worry about you because I care and if I could take all your pain away I would in a heartbeat. Don't ever think you are bothering anyone with the way you are feeling - we are here for you and love you

Re: not feeling good

@BlueBay. You can always talk here. There is no time you can't reach out here.
Have you spoken to your daughter today? I can't remember when her ultrasound is. My memory! !!
Would you like some diversion tonight? Or to hear one of my fascinating rambles - that poor @Zoe7 has put up with recently? I have a feeling they are good at sending people to sleep.
Am thinking of you. This is all just temporary. This part will be over soon. And then your days will be easier.
