Quoting Jethro: For me, last weekend was a bit rough, but with each successive day I'm feeling a bit better...not as moody. ******************************** I'm in somewhat of a quandry...and maybe you guys have some insight. You see, I've been in a strange place the last couple of days. I think I've had to cut off some of my feelings in order to deal with the A. Now, I'm feeling rather apathetic about everything...don't feel those deep feelings like I was. It's making me uncomfortable and empty. Is this a natural progression to this crap, then those feelings will come back? Honestly, I think I'd rather feel the pain more if that meant I'd be able to "feel" more.
Hi again,
I wanted to respond to this on your thread. And I caught up on your thread as well.
Wow. I can really relate to what you've been feeling lately. I get those feelings in waves too.
I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one!
I'm also glad to see that you are begining to feel better. Can you pinpoint what you did that contributed to the rise in your PMA?
For me, I looked in the mirror, saw my reflection looked pretty and realized that my outside didn't match up with my inside. And I liked feeling pretty better than I did feeling sad. Things started up from there. But they didn't get totally turned around until I had posted my post, had a positive response from KAW, and did an activity that I'd been looking forward to for a week.
I have to remind myself to focus on the solution, not the problem.
