I feel a bit overwhelmed by dark emotions. I am having mild gastro issues and it may be a virus. I was supposed to go to therapy today, but because I don't want to get anyone else sick at this time, I called first, and they told me to stay home. I just ended a very close friendship yesterday, and I'm sad. The first case of coronavirus was found in my county today by someone who had not traveled. I am scared and feel somewhat alone.


I know that I am healthy (except gastro whatever is going on inside me right now), and my Mom said she is free to talk tonight about my friend, and another friend of mine and I are going to check in with each other this evening as well.


I think right now I need to play the distraction game, and get some work done.

Sending hugs to anyone else who may be struggling with dark emotions during this time.

Hang in there. This is a tough time. Distractions are great. I am planning on watching tv show. I’ve been binge watching Younger. It takes my mind off things.

(((WovenGalaxy))),

I think yesterday was hard for you. Yet, I am impressed that you decided to practice some self care. Sometimes, that can cause these emotional struggles and even can be felt in one's digestive tract. That is something I tend to experience myself.

From what you have shared this has been an ongoing challenge for you. When that happens with me, it tends to really affect my digestive tract. I can experience it so bad that I can even get the dry heaves. Take this day to relax and find some relaxing destractions. That is what I try to do myself.

Thank you Divine, Open Eyes and Mickey Cheeky

I went for a walk in the sun, talked to my Mom on the phone, watched Grace & Frankie, and wrote some. My day got better. My stomach is finally feeling better too. I had some pita chips and tzatziki sauce with no problem.

Mickey, I like the idea of taking this time to focus on myself a little, and to get some things done.

I really appreciate the support from people I have gotten here. Thank you.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
