not long to christmas and how things are at the moment emotionally

not long to christmas and how things are at the moment emotionally

in terms of emotional state Im probly just as stressed yet trying to keep things calm and orderly just the same as anyone else is at the momment theres still alot to do others probly feel as if they havent got things all together emotionally even if on the outside it looks like things are together? felt a slight bit of panic this afternoon but a family member was very reasurring,Ive been listening to heaps of music but currently have an annoying tooth or gum problem in my mouth which is annoying took paracetamol extra twice today to releive it or it could be part of stress as Ive had a bit of headache/earache type feeling too,need to get rest for now then onto more things to do ,as for eating well I seem to be eating less kind of a crash diet as theres stuff to do so getting excercise as for sleep well thats on track just have lack of motivation to get up most mornings ,in terms of eating healthy food Im trying but ate take out today,brushed my teeth for the first time in a while so my tooth /gum issue might need strong mouth wash to get rid of germs,as for contact with family well things are busy so on and off although the peple Id really love to talk to will wait till christmas day to give them a call worried about one family member who may be alone although I hope not,putting my feet up for a bit not heaps of self care but when I can,might talk to lifeline or someone tonight if needed to just vent ect a little bit of trying to keep peace with certain family members as there has been recent conflict so well see what happens there,sometimes its hard to be present in the moment,I like asking people how they are going but I dont like people asking how I am so maybe deflecting,anyway tonight Im probly gonna sleep well except for the toothe/gum issue dont want to take too much paracetamol a bit sensitive to loud noises too today.thanks for listening.

thank you Greenpea tooth and gum issues have eased a bit just exhausted at the momment as medicine had cafiene in it so kept me awake,Im trying to do as much self care as I can just listened to about 10 minutes of music about to leave home again for food pick ups ect so tired ,last night was feeling as if I needed someone to pick me up and hold me literally carry me as they would a child but today just yeah tired but self care has to be a priority so after all last minute stuff is done I think I will have a nap for a few hours later today,definetly need to make a phone call to a good listener in my family as well,have a good day greenpea x
