THEN a whole heap of guilt often creeps in about it all. It's a pretty interesting phenomenon really. I think its great that you've been able to recognise the difficulties of settling down into normalacy. Just remember hunni, that yes, lotsa things in life are routine and ordinary... but YOU are not ordinary, you are extraordinary... thus your life, the important aspects of it (ie you're kids, how you treat yr husband, your friends, people you meet in the street, yr rel with God etc) make you extraordinary :). Those plus the achievements and discoveries you make on your own are also gonna be the places where you find wonder and joy in life... something that far surpasses the manic and craziness of things or the meltdowns on teh couch. YOu can do it!!!

You're feeling slightly well, but still bruised, and unable to do a lot of things still, but feeling well in your brain. And feeling lost in the state of mind of normality. It's like everything is in a stand-still. Where to go, what to do, what to think? I had to go through that period right after I came out of the hospital. It was a really tough adjustment actually. But you just have to persist and wait it out. Only time is going to get you through. You will slowly get into the groove naturally. It's hard to believe, but it's true. It took me several months, with some bumps along the way. I don't know what it would be like for you. But what you're going through is not unusual at all. You're not the only one, ok? :) ((((Zena))))JChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15334635689175224268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6709375526155793906.post-74824035873732703772009-07-16T21:07:06.404-04:002009-07-16T21:07:06.404-04:00I just wanted to thank you for all the support you...I just wanted to thank you for all the support you give me.

I love the song that just came on! <br /><br />okay, on to the COMMENT part of this comment:<br /><br />This is really good insight and good to know. It's good to understand what situations can act as triggers. Is it calming to know that nothing is actually wrong? Is it calming to know that, in a way, you're "overreacting" to the "normal day?" Is it helpful to know that it's just a "normal day" and you don't have to fix anything or do anything - that everythign is actually fine? Is that thought a relief or a stress inducer?<br /><br />I kind of know what you mean by difficulty with "normalcy." I always explain it to people by saying that I have difficulty with energy transitions. If I'm used to running around with large to-do lists and then I encounter a day (or even a week) where there's less to do and I just have to... be - then I go a little crazy and create various self-assigned missions (kind of like your to-do list yesterday). When it's crazy, I wnat it to be calm. When it's calm, I make it crazy.
