    Not feeling the world today still, barely made it out of bed this morning. Feeling absolutely exhausted, drained and washed out. Still haven’t had the energy to do any house work, just about made a bowl of cereal but that’s about it. Could sleep for an eternity.

    Today I am telling myself it is okay to worry, as long as I don't get carried away, not losing myself in it.

    Life is hard, being a chronic, housebound, there are uncertainties, self-doubt, so it is not weird to worry. It is part of who I am.

    I am a worrier, but also more than that. Life is hard on so many people, and apparently 'We live in an epidemic of anxiety.' I am guessing there is nothing wrong with me :)

    Thanks for your support and kind words, @Catherine21 Yeah, telling myself not to worry is only adding fuel to fire. But often it is difficult not to go down that road of self-blame, isn't it?

    Wow, Karl Jung - sounds interesting indeed.
    I am currently reading a few pages a day of Tara Brach's Radical Compassion which is definitely about being human and all our so-called flaws (those can turn out to be our strengths actually, but that is another book by a different author).

    For me it is mostly the feeling of responsibility, but not much considering what I myself need. I am learning to change that, but it is far from easy as indeed we live in a demanding society. Not much room for people who are ill. Makes me sad.

    Sounds awfully familiar, especially the guilt. Sometimes it even activates my flight-fright system when I don't know how to get it out of my head.

    Today's self compassing was this guided meditation, it changed my perspective from 'I am stupid' to something entirely different. Thankfully. May appear easy, but it is not.

    And then something else came up and now I am back to being sad and shaky, feeling unworthy. What did I ever deserve for life to become such a nightmare?

    What do you do for self-compassion, Catherine? Or anyone else here?

    I did not go out today.. it is getting harder to go out so I missed my two hour session.. I never stay the entire two hours ... I hope tomorrow will get the courage to go out for another volunteering two hours as well .I hope you are all ok..so far… good afternoon, evening and night.. and sleep tight. And try not to get a cold ...

    Sorry you didn't make it out today @Schildpad. Tomorrow is a new day so see how you feel. Where do you volunteer?

    Too late for me, I already have a cold!

    There was a handful of people I missed very much on here that's why after 8 months I'm back, Bluebell was one she always checked on me on the threads on days I wasn't around that's something very few did and I never forgot It. I hope she will also wish to come back one day and whatever her reasons for leaving are aren't unresolvable. Please tell her I'm back and send her my very best 💛

    another quiet day at the mill, scraped myself out of bed and did a bit of washing. Then spent most of the day just watching tv, really struggling to say the least. Moved my appointment for my coflu boosters for probably the fifth time. Just honestly don’t want to leave the prison cell and don’t want to face the world.
