I'm very low tonight, I'm afraid. I'm swinging between hopelessly depressed and sad, violently angry, and numb. I can't concentrate. I'm having bad dreams. It's just the very fresh grief, I'm sure. But I'm not myself and I wish I felt more normal right now. Thank you for inquiring. Just going through the fire right now, I think. And tonight's not been a good one. Wish I could report better news, but that's where I am right now. Hugs to you, Daima. Wish you were here to give me a real one. I'd could use it.
If i may make a suggestion?
do not deny yourself your feelings.
they are yours, you own them, and there is nothing wrong with them.
As a cyber friend..i dont want just all the good new. I want the bad, the ugly, ...all of it. You are very normal. I would be concerned if you werent feeling the feelings you are feeling.
