Stressed Out
Hey guys! I don’t think I’ll post my meals today because I am feeling really frustrated and stressed out. I actually just wrote a whole post about it, which turned out to be a loooong rant. I decided not to publish it for fear of losing all my wonderful, sweet, loyal readers. Anyway, writing it actually did make me feel a tiny bit better, even though I’m not publishing it. I just feel “yuck” right now.
I apologize for skipping my meals post today, and also would like to apologize for not catching up on all your blogs. I only read and commented on a few last night, and even then I only read the most recent post, not all the ones I missed. Sorry, I feel really bad about that. I don’t think I’ll be reading any more today, as I am feeling down in the dumps and feeling sorry for myself. I’m going to try and snap myself out of it, as I actually am really blessed and have a lot of things to be grateful for. It’s kind of stupid the things I’m stressing over, because they really shouldn’t be affecting me at all, but I’m just letting them get to me. I should be focusing on all the good things in my life and be thankful for them. And I’m sure that other people would love to have the “problems” I am having, as they aren’t really problems or a big deal at all. I am just making mountains out of molehills, hence the mopey mood, but I’m sure it won’t last for long. I’ll catch up on all your blogs tomorrow, because I’m sure I’ll be happy by then, and I’ll be able to write all the nice comments you all deserve. So, I’m sorry for this depressing post, but I’ll be back tomorrow and I’ll be happy and have a positive attitude. Have a great day, everyone!

sorry to hear about the stress, I think we can all relate to those type feelings. I know that when I’m stressed I have a major tendency to sit around and feel “blah” until the feelings subside. but hopefully you find a positive way to sort through your problems, and come back when you’re up to it!

First, totally publish your rant if that’s what YOU need. Your readers will understand. Second, don’t worry about not blogging your meals or reading/commenting on all the blogs. Seriously. Third, I am sorry for your stress. I hope you feel better soon.

we ALL have days like that and totally understand– (i’ve been having a LOT of stressed out days lately and sometimes you just need a day away from the blog world when you’re feeling icky)
hope you feel better tomorrow… just try to de-stress and we’re all here for you!

Oh, I am so sorry you are feeling this way. And I agree, rant away. That is what blogs are for, to talk about whatever YOU want. I hope things look up for you soon, keep us posted on how you are doing.

Please don’t worry about it! I have a hard time keeping up with commenting too

You know what, I’ve been having a day JUST like yours today. You’re not alone! Don’t worry at all. It sucks, but you are ALLOWED to feel bad for yourself and to stress over petty things. Everyone has days like these sometimes. Don’t apologize for it. I hope you are feeling better tomorrow.

I totally understand where you are coming from and from experience I can say that when i focus on my problems they seem bigger and bigger I would suggest that you stay busy… give to others and do stuff that takes you out of your own mind becausr thatis when I dont focus on my problems but give of myself and It makes me feel better and realize that my problems are not the center of the world!

Please don’t apologize friend! Life is about balance and it sounds like you needed to not blog. And that’s okay, right?
Whatever is bothering you is valid. Small things and seemingly unimportant problems still matter and still have an impact on your mood.
Thanks for your candidness. You’re special!
