How are you feeling?

Anxious and irritated. I was scheduled to be off both jobs today, and my son just happened to not have school, so we had a mother-son date day planned, but I received a message that somebody at work is sick and she wanted me to come in so she could leave. Now I feel rushed, except I have decided that I have no intention of going in, so now I'm dreading calling her back.

Anxious, annoyed, and tired. My ex is picking our son up (he takes him Saturdays from 8 am-12 pm). He will be late, which I'm a little relieved by, because we got up late, and my son is in the process of eating breakfast. But now my son is upstairs going #2, so he may not be done when my ex gets here. I want to limit my contact with this guy as much as possible, and I hate that I have to get up early on Saturdays just so my son can see his dad for 4 hours. I'm always anxious when he comes to get him, and while he's with him, because he sends me texts criticizing my parenting and everything I and everyone around me does with/says to my child. I'm glad that he texts instead of actually speaking to me, though...I'd probably cry if he said anything to my face.
I'm also really tired, but have a lot to do before going to work this afternoon...
 
Wondering if there is a point in continuing my meagre existience and if I should, what CAN I do?
Miine's very meagre as well. Dull, unexciting, same every day. And at the present, my future doesn't seem to have very much prospect of improving that much, although my supply of hope is endless. So i just keep-on-keeping-on, chipping away at life. At the moment i'm not really that unhappy, but i know i could possibly be quite a lot happier than i am. I just blot-out all my problems continuously (comfort food, alcohol, computer, tv, music, etc), be content with the small pleasures in life, be grateful when i actually feel good (rare), be content when i'm feeling just average or "okay".

I could have written this verbatim.

Edit: well, except for the dullness. I mean, I have the same routine, but certain people and things in my life make it more interesting.
 
I'd like to go nuts today and get my room organized. It's precisely the opposite and I've just been too overwhelmed by the sight of it to even attempt clearing it up. The worst problem, though, isn't the defeated feeling I get when I look at it - it's anxiety.

It's hard to explain, but I get this weird feeling when I go to tackle a project like this, this feeling that there's no point because my existence is pointless and therefore why even bother cleaning my room? I don't deserve to feel good about having a nice room or about taking the time to organize it, because I don't deserve anything, because I'm weird-looking.

Yeah I know, it doesn't make much sense but this is what goes through my head and I'm not sure how to deal with it so I can get things done with some peace of mind and a sense of purpose.

He shouldn't be doing this. Creates unnecessary strain on an already fractured relationship.

Sounds like you want to become a happier person, simply by wanting to enjoy the smaller pleasures. It's a good start.

tired of being alone,cant find anyone like me or kind people around here,its really hard.
It's difficult, man, I know. Hang in there.

I feel good. Went and saw a band I like. Was thinking I was going to spend the whole time on my own but I bumped into a friend of mine and he introduced me to some of his friends. At the end of the night I'm driving into the heart of Sydney taking two people home! Pretty cool end to a pretty cool gig. Also got to chat to another drummer from one of the support bands. That was a little unnerving but I got some good drumming tips.

One of my passengers in the car was a cute girl who I thought I was developing something with, until she drops the "I have a husband" card on me. Too bad. ::p: New friend, though!

Now it's 2:30am and I'm barely tired.

Bad.

I knew a wonderful therapist once who said that good and bad are not feelings, but rather judgments of feelings. Nevertheless, that's how I'm feeling tonight:

Bad.

What is making you feel bad GraybeardGhost?::(: I hope it is something temporary, and your mood can lift soon.



I am feeling so much regret for a decision made years ago. I wish I was like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz, waking up to discover the whole journey was just a bad dream.
 
I'm just having myself a cry. It was brought on by Doctor Who and a Kate Nash song. I'll cry over the strangest things, but it's usually about something else. I think this one is just about feeling lonely. I hide in the house and interact through the computer, but when it is all said and done, I don't want to have spent my whole life alone. I'm sick and tired of being alone.

Sorry to hear you are so sad atm Super. I know how hiding in the house and only having conversations through the computer can produce feelings of emptiness and frustration. ((Hugs))

You're a sweet girl. You'll find someone. :)
