does it feel wrong to feel good?

[kiss25]

I am just sitting here again tonight tryin to rationalise my thoughts and i have to ask if anyone else thinks the same way i do
My headache feels a little bit better today thank god after nearly 4 straight weeks, stil goin doc tomorrow anyway jsut to make sure, i am trying to convince myself it just the ha........ but........ i just want to no if anyone sits there when they do feel fine and have no symptoms and goes oh my god i feel normal i feel happy and you feel like there is something wrong with you because you feel good???
i hope you can understand this. like the other day my friend and i were on the net reading all these funny things and just being stupid and i thought whats wrong with me why am i laughin so much, has somebody spiked my coffee. what is that????
i try to feel normal and when i do i think that it's not because i am normal but because something is wrong with me
oh god i hope that made sense if anyone else gets this please reply

Unerstand completely Kiss, when I feel happy and good with myself I think 'what's wrong?' but I am trying to adjust my thinking now, to accept the positive and think positive and speak positive. It's great that you had a good time with your friend, and to know that THAT is normal!

Take care

hi daisybun
thanks heaps for that cause i seriously thought oh god i really am crazy thinking stuff like that but i no i not the only one

[Daisybun]

No hun you're not the only one, I think its natural when you are used to feeling bad and ill all the time to think that something is not normal when you do feel good, that is what anxiety does. But to feel good is normal and i want more of it.

me too its making dp hard to control when it's so hard to just feel good ..... i try so hard and get let down because i just cant stop it but thanks heaps again it means alot to no that its just all these stupid symptoms and not a sign of anything else

[Daisybun]

That's OK hun, just keep holding onto that thought, it is just the symptoms, they can't hurt me, float through it and just visualise yourself the other side, or when you were laughing with your friend at the stupid stories, that can help too.

Take care

claire weekes talks of this often and yes you are right, it is so long that i have felt good that when i do i fear it is the calm before the stoem

it is as though we will not let ourselves be happy

horrible

i think when we have anxiety for a long time we have forgotton what it is to feel normal

so in answer to your question - does it feel wrong to feel good - then NO

enjoy it and eventually you will start to feel good more

Hi Kiss, I totally understand what your saying. I think we get so use to feeling horrible, that when we feel good, Its not normal for us. But really the not normal for us, is the way we should be feeling. So go with it and enjoy the good feelings.

Hope this makes sense?
