melancholy ........holidays are usually like this

Lorelli! · 23-04-2019 8:55pm

Was up very early this morning and I'm overtired now! I think I'll have a nice long bath to wind down and warm me up before I go to bed.

Also stuffed after a late dinner.

Sad. Missing one of our dogs which we had to get put to sleep last week. Reflecting on feelings that surfaced during a very intense counselling session yesterday evening.

Scared. A family member is gravely ill and getting worse. I honestly don’t know if she’ll make it through this time.

Stressed. Work pressures getting to me on top of all of the above.

Lonely

Melancholic. Felt like crap earlier but wrote a big long blog post that made me feel better.

Loved. A good friend texted me after reading said blog post and said some lovely things about me.

Graces7 · 09-05-2019 2:32pm

drained all the time now as the CFS/ME gains ground in old age.. But content enough with the beauty of sky and ocean, the love of my cats, work for my hands and youtube and books... and watching my seeds germinate and start to grow.. as long as i am abed, fine. so rich in what matters

We broke up a month ago, and it's hitting me hard now. So upset and heartbroken. So lonesome.

Kitty6277 · 15-05-2019 11:26pm

Pensive, ambitious. Wondering what to do

SaltSweatSugar · 18-05-2019 8:32pm

Jealous, and hating that I am. One of my best friends married the love of her life last year, they’re moving into their own house and they’re expecting a baby at the end of the year. I’m so incredibly happy for them but it’s really made me realise just how far away from that life I am. Its not something I want to happen right now but I’d like to not be single and be starting a life with the right person. Facing all the highs and lows that life has to offer together. Instead I’m still getting over a break up that happened months ago, still missing that person and working on myself so that I can be the best possible version of me. I’m getting so sick of people telling me that it’ll happen for me. I don’t want to settle, but I want kids and I don’t want to miss my chance.

Keep imagining me and my ex will get back together.. .. U could say I'm at the desperate stage of a break up.. .. . I want him back so much.. .a thought that brings me comfort but disappointment too, unfortunately

flowerchild · 27-05-2019 12:52pm

Confused about how I engage in such self-sabotaging life threatening behaviours even though I want to live. I don’t understand.

SaltSweatSugar · 28-05-2019 10:19pm

Proud. Got a new PB this evening for 5km and feeling so good about myself and my ability to achieve my goals.

In turmoil. Got some **** news that I need to tell friends about but have no idea how to approach it.

stop animal cruelty · 30-05-2019 10:43pm

9 times out of 10 I post a negative post on this thread.

Just thinking to myself, 3 times this week I felt proud of myself.

1. I took up a new hobby back last October, last night at training I felt iv made great progression and improvement. Most evenings before practice I wanted to text in saying I couldn't make it. So, so glad I didn't fall into that bad habit... And it's paying off now.

2. I started slimming world 4 weeks ago. I felt it would be a good distraction from my break up, and something good to do for me. I'm down half a stone so far!

3. I had a repayment issue with a company, ongoing for about 2 months. I was entitled to my money back, but with my stubbornness and the fact it was a lot of money..... I finally got it back.

All the above wouldn't have happened of I hadn't been persistent and more so, being selfish. Doing it for me. Doing so because there were the right things to do, and it's being paid off.

So I'm pretty good atm I think.

exhausted,,, cold .....about to force myself to rise and shine.. HEEEEEAAAAAVVVVVVE

Feeling utterly insignificant (but in a good way, 300 meters above Bangkok)

SaltSweatSugar · 09-06-2019 4:06pm

Exhausted, both mentally and physically. I’ve worked 72 hours this week and I’ve never felt as tired in my life as I am right now. Two more long shifts to go then off for 6 days.

Rejuvenated. Although it was very long and tough, this week reminded just how much I love my job. A great week surrounded by great people working together, laughing and making new friends and memories.

Looking out at the back garden. Im getting a little patio and its half done. It's starting to look how I wanted it too. I can't wait till it's finished

Also energetic.

Graces7 · 18-06-2019 7:09pm

Fulfilled as the garden is starting to feed me. Greens for the picking, watching pea pods start to fill out and all the flowers! Out here on an offshore island all is late and hardwon so this is a simple sweetness

Relieved. Had therapy yesterday for the first time in 3 weeks and got so much off my chest. Spoke in depth about the trauma I experienced a few weeks ago and how I've been feeling about it. Talked about post traumatic stress and the impact it can have. Feel a lot less burdened by it and kind of happy to know that what I've been going through is normal after such an experience.

Tammy! · 24-07-2019 4:55pm

I've let my roots grow too long in my hair and it's driving me mad today :mad:

Can't wait to get my hair done tomorrow. Might treat myself and get my nails done too

Exhausted, sick, and scared.

The past few days have been a blur since my uncle died suddenly on Sunday. Spent Monday running around like a blue ar$ed fly trying to sort myself out. Drove the three hours to the town where he lived for the removal on Tuesday. Feck all sleep that night and up again early the following morning to go back to the house before the funeral. I was asked to read a prayer of the faithful. Somehow managed to get through that but fell apart at the next one which mentioned my late mother. Only for a cousin on the other side of the family put his arm around me my legs would’ve given way there on the alter. It was the first family funeral since my mother died and it all came rushing back in a big way.

I’ve had about 10 hours sleep altogether since Tuesday and I’m running on fumes at this stage. I have to go to work in a few hours but I’m wide awake at the moment feeling sick to my stomach, which I’ve been feeling for the guts of a week now. I’m definitely off form but not sure what’s causing it, which also scares me. I know I need to go to my GP for a check up. My uncle was 48 and the most fit, active and healthy man I knew, and it didn’t matter an iota in the end. I’m fit, active and a healthy weight but I have my vices. I know I don’t eat as well as I should, or get as much sleep as I should. I like a drink, but I don’t overdo it. But I’m scared that it won’t make any difference, and I could still drop dead at any time.

I need a hug.

Condolences on the loss of your uncle and your mother. May they Rest in Peace.
My own mother passed away earlier this year so I know all about what you're going through. There's a Bereavement thread on Boards.ie which might help you.
I'm sending you a virtual hug. Hope it helps in some small way.

One of my "faith family" has died; the second in three weeks. She was 92, and just went to sleep. Her entire life in the service of needy folk. Sleep well faithful one!
