Feeling strange being abstinate
I feel strange today because I am well mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. This is a rare state for me. I'm almost wondering what to do when I'm no longer grazing. So, it just seemed natural to reach out and say that I do feel good even though this is unfamiliar terrirory. It's so odd for me to feel "normal" or what many people would just say is ok.
Try to find a hobbie that you enjoy. Do you like to paint, draw,bowling,tennis,work crossword puzzles or word puzzles,watch movies,sew,kni****ch tv,reading books, exersizing,walking,golfing, surfing the net? Do you like building models, doing jigsaw puzzles? There is soooooo much to do besides eating.Find a hobbie.Find something you love to do. Do you play an instrument? Think about what you love to do and enjoy it. However, if you love food like me, after my gastric bypass, I find tha****ching the food network on tv is enjoying. I know I cannot eat the food, but I love watching the food network. I guess I am addicted to it.
I just thought I'd add that part of this odd feeling is that I am bi-polar and rarely feel this good. And, I do mean that I am feeling good without being manic. I know I have to stay on my meds. I don't work and receive an occupational disability due to my mental condition. I hope to be able to start doing volunteer work in about 6 mos and maybe some part-time work in about 9 mos. My wife would really appreciate that since it would get me off my butt and generate a little extra income. I retired under Fers through the Fed govt and I am allowed to earn 80% of what my last job is being paid now. But, I am not allowed to work for the Fed govt or do work similar to my last employment. That still allows many jobs that can use my skills and abilities.
