Does anyone else ever get so sad it feels like it's hard to move? I feel like that today. I am so sad and my limbs feel heavy and I just want to lay down and sleep.

I hear you.

Some days I just lie on my bed and space out, try not to think. Just be me

Looks like we joined about the same time - maybe it's a phase?

Oh yes. Many, many times. Heartache is exhausting and takes its toll.
Im sorry you're hurting so much today. If you can, just let it ride. Feel what you need and sleep if you're sleepy. Take care of yourself.

More times than not. The only thing that helps me is...moving.

Yes, it happened to me. I have learned to listen to my body. If I feel like laying in a fetal position on the floor I do so. Of course I also get help from books, SI, therapy.

With me if I pretend like the feelings aren't there and rug sweep, those darn feelings come back only worse.

I try to feel and process those feelings the first time. It does take time to get through the shit sandwich we were served. But I tell you, it is a lot better on the other side.

It is literally paralysing at times. I can't move , talk, eat even simple tasks are a challenge.
Exhausting.

It nearly ruined my relationship to a good client and took my business income significantly down the year of DD.

Oh yes, it seems that it hits when I really don't want it too.

If I could only feel like that at 4am!

Sometimes the exhaustion is overwhelming, on days off I have had to just lie down and then end up sleeping for 3 or 4 hours, unable to get up.

I just go with it when I can. I think our bodies need it.

I know , sometimes I feel like I can't even feel the lower prt of my body.
