Not been feeling like myself for a while

I haven’t been feeling like myself for quite some time. I can’t say exactly what or how I’m feeling, it’s emotionally & physically draining. I was just scrolling on social media when I came across this post & it actually made me smile so I thought I would share it with you. 🥰

Hi MoominMomma

Sorry to hear that you are not feeling so good.

When I read your post it did make me smile. Thank you.

I've not had much to smile about lately as I too feel so rotten.

Big hugs to you 🤗

Thanks for reaching out with these words. I always feel bleh at this time of year and have done for 54 years and as a child of 10, always feeling sad, blaming myself, not allowed to tell anyone. Thank goodness that we are (on here anyway) more accepting of mental health issues. For me it is riding the wave of this rising and overwhelming, panic is not (the word) I'm looking for, but this wave that breaks over my head and drowns me in stress. I've found my SAD light after moving house, now 5 years ago so have begun to use that again in the hope that it will help me. Apologies for the over reaction, but I wanted you to know that you are not the only one feeling a bit.?...wishing you and everyone on here, peace, love and light 🙏

I feel like this, more so as time goes on and find it really difficult to think of relatable ways to describe it to people without Lupus or similar diseases. Yesterday I just felt really ill and weird, but was unable to describe it to my husband. I feel like I'm on the verge of tears or something, but couldn't explain why. In the past couple of years it's sort of like I'm drifting/floating along, constantly knackered, uncomfortable and in pain much of the time. I don't feel like I'm living, just sort of hanging on, if that makes sense.

Hope that doesn't sound too depressing! ❤️
