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 😞

@BlueBay. I'm right beside you.
Why should be classed as a swear word.

Hi @oceangirl
Thinking of my dad is making me very sad. I'm sorry I just can't help it. It's not easy to just not think of him.

Re: not feeling good

Yeah @utopia - a big fat swear word.
I'm sorry.

Re: not feeling good

Sorry should also be banned. As should - should. I'm the worse one for using these words @BlueBay.
Do you have your comfort box ready & your chocolate?

Re: not feeling good

I'm around @BlueBay
Sorry to hear that you're sad tonight. Anniversaries that bring up past trauma are really tough.
Have you got things in place to take care of yourself tonight? You mentioned above you were going to chat to your husband - how did that go?

Re: not feeling good

@utopia just ate some chocolate. Got nothing else ready
I'm feeling a bit destructive tonight. I think bed is where I need to go.
@NikNik I haven't spoken to hubby. I don't know how. He'll think it's dumb.

@NikNik @utopia @oceangirl
I had a shocking night terrible nightmare of my parents and abuse.
I am scared to go to sleep tonight. I don't want to close my eyes.

I don't think it's dumb, I think it shows a lot of emotional intelligence knowing why you're feeling the way you're feeling and the best way to manage it. Maybe he'd see it that way too?

Re: not feeling good

@BlueBay. Your hubby can get you a stash of chocolate before he goes to work in the morning. Just let him know it's medicinal.
If you are finding it hard to talk to him - could you write it down on paper and show him. Something like - tmw us dad's birthday. I expect it will be a hard day. I expect I may cry. I'd like to be alone to do this. But I'd appreciate chocolate to help me get thru the day.
Once this is done. It's over and then you can sleep.

Re: not feeling good

@BlueBay. Set an image in your mind. Your island. Picture of puppies. Chocolate cake. A lake.
Keep that image in your mind. Breathe. Slowly close your eyes - keeping the image there. Breathe in and breathe out. If your mind wanders - don't worry - just breathe and picture that image.
