hi faryal.
yes I am still seeing the psychologist.  Once a month.  I was hoping for once every two months but we will see tonite...
 
Diva,
great mionds think alike!   I was just thinking about that book I wanted to put together... and what I would need to do it and what I want to put into it... while I was punching in the numbers this morning .
 
and I think I figured out the trigger to this mini-slump.  okay depression. 
 
 It is resolution time!  people everywhere are making plans for their healthsss, physical, financial, social...  and I am just being happy with my little poof, poof train of healing after that really rocky summer I just had!  Well my mind will have nothing with that and went into automatic!  and of course with no courses and no goals ... no projects and no plans set out the conclusions of the subconscious were negative... next step was lets go deeper!  and dig for proof of the negative in the experiences of the past ... and lets extrapolate and paint a picture of the future with all this data - a fool-proof  process to make a bad situation completely horrible!!!
 
and I know better ... I do exercise the cbt, but like many here ... I have to dig through all the feeling and all the pain to find the negative thoughts.  I have to reaaly search for the bad habit that occures in the blink of an eye and take it to pieces. and it is exhausting.  That was problably why I needed the day off Monday, and why I am really hair-trigger today with the tears.

Hello Wildcat,

It sounds like you have a lot on your mind lately. I am sorry to hear you do not feel fulfilled at occupation anymore. 

I can see that you are questioning and wondering which way you want to go and what you truely want. Those are all very worthy questions and unfortunately hard to answer sometimes. But hang in there, you are smart and inquisitive and I am sure you will find some answers.

As for wanting to express yourself, I totally understand. Sometimes there is just something inside just wanting to come out. Have you considered new outlets for that energy?

Anyway, I wish I could help you out more. I must admit I am exhausted today and as such am all out of smart things to say. All I can say is that I am here to listen when you need to vent!

Hi Wildcat,
 
 I repressed all emotions as a young adult -to survive-  and learnt nothing about reacting to life.
 
This is very interesting because it is specifically for this reason that the emotions are so intense and overwhelming later in adult life. Repressing and suppressing emotions only drive them deeper into the being so that when they are triggered to resurface, the reaction is amplified.
 
Although you may have done this to survive, it has now caught up with you.  Relearning healthy ways to channel and redirect negative emotions is the key so that you can feel more in control.
 
Let us know how your sessions with the therapist are going if you are still doing them.

faryal;
why is this??
"It is highly uncommon for you to feel the overwhelming emotions that you do - after all being a mom and working woman are very challenging!"
 
part of my learning / training with my therapist is all about emotional intensity.  i repressed all emotions as a young adult -to survive-  and learnt nothing about reacting to life.

Hello Wildcat,
 
It is a good thing that you chose this site to put your thoughts and feelings into llegible words. Believe it or not, it is therapeutic to allow your thoughts to flow freely into a visible form where you can read them and reread them - sometimes the answers come in this way.
 
While reading your post, I was curious about what supplements you are taking currently? You are probably aware that there are many natural remedies that can aid with low energy, lack of motivation, bad mood, irritability and, low stamina in terms of completing tasks. Sometimes taking the right nutritional element can correct many of these symptoms - speak to your health care professional or someone specializing in naturopathic medicine.
 
It is highly uncommon for you to feel the overwhelming emotions that you do - after all being a mom and working woman are very challenging!
 
Members, please share how you create balance in your roles as mom and working woman and what works to rejuvenate and replenish your energy to do both as best as you can.
 
Wildcat, you have expressed your creative energies many times on this forum.......make a list of what is pleasurable for you and take the time to do something creative each day even if for only 10 minutes.
 
Keep us posted on how you are coping!

hi gang.
 
i will be rambling for a while ... okay?  So working in the first sense is functionality.  I am not broken, i am able in order and able to complete tasks.  And I ofter feel defective.  I do not have the energy level that gets others through the week or month.  I am not able to complete a set task without falling asleep infront of the screen or without becoming irritable.  I want more I want recognition and I want diversity but all that was taken away ... why due to restructing or me???
 
Work in the sense of day to day tasks, housework, homework.  This is where I usually end up in survival mode. Laundy strewn about, dishes piling up, dust a blanket on most memories...  why bother?  bacteria and virus need a home.  No to puppy mills. No to the unethical harvest of sea-kitten. No to the destruction to the habitat of bacteria and viruses.    I these tasks is the raising of childern and here i wonder... and I equally negligent!  am I negligent in providing too much attention ?  or by being a poor example?  Have I transmitted my defective genes to my children?  already my son had my migrains that need accupunction treatments!!!  My daughter is .. well she needs .... she is ...  crazy excited.  And coping is not living. 
 
Then there is the occupation I do.  I put numbers into a computer fo a company.  I have done so for 10 years for money and every once in a while they say thank you.  But I want to play with colour and talk with people.  i want to be late and work late every once in a while.  I want a bunch of people to see what I did.  I want a something at the end of the week not a back-up sent to a computer archive cie.
 
And to tell the truth I do not know what I truely want.  I have this undirected energy in the middle of me and I seem unable to direct it!  I do not have any desire to put it into the haling of my physical entity I am.  Maybe i could create a little something downstaires for the mental me...  I have no energy requirements for the daily tasks at hand.  i am doing jack today.  No will and no motivation to pick up socks.  And I took a simple sick day from the office to recupe from the holiday rush and from last weeks bitter artic cold weather.
 
Money would help take care of a few things that are causing me stress.  But in the end I do not have a 5 year plan and it is driving me to distraction.  I am bored.  I want that work that is fueled by ambition to motivate me.  And I do not have that, so everything is looking flat.  I should be setting little plans in order.  I should be calculating savings - for braces and all.    
But   no action.  only hours and hours of  .... maman it hurts,  maman its painful.  and of course I will become uncool and mean and the wicked step mother in the next 5 years at home... so of course I want personal action!  but what.  What am I ready for? and what is available?
