Today started out as a good day but as evening falls and my hubby is away for training I'm feeling lonely, sad, depressed and I'm trying not to take it out on anybody. It is really hard to know what your feelings are when you haven't felt them in so long and are just learning to feel them again. Therapy is helping but when i sit back and ask myself is this how I am really feeling or is it a different feeling and sometimes I just don't know? Does any one else struggle this way or is it just me?

I remember feeling like that when I was in therapy ~ the more I thought about it, the more confused I got. So I just quit worrying about it and just "felt." Whatever I was feeling, I just allowed myself to feel. I didn't question whether or not I was really feeling it or not, or if it was real ~ I just felt it. And I just tried to go on about my business and not obsess about it. The busier I got, the less it bothered me. That seemed to work the best for me.

As I got better, I was more able to recognize what I was feeling and why. But for the time being, just feel it and go on about your business. LOL It won't last forever. God bless. Hugs, Lee
