I still feel off-kilter today.
It's not just because of the accident. I mean, it was pretty minor all things considered. I think it's just all the stress of everything that happened yesterday combined. On the plus side, I didn't feel nauseous or lose my appetite, so that's definite progress since summer. On the down side, the fact that I still feel like this just goes to show that I'm not entirely recovered. Another plus and minus to it; it's a weaker reaction than I was experiencing before, but it has now lasted into the next day. It's annoying feeling bothered like this. I can't tell if I'm a little high-strung or just a little sad. I don't even know why I should be either. I just want to curl in a ball and ignore everything, but of course my mind can't stop so I need to stay occupied. But I'm bothered and nervy and can't focus. Stupid emotions and the vicious cycle.
At least it's not a strong reaction anymore. I'll hold onto that positive as proof that I'm recovering. I can deal with this without curling up or hiding or clinging to someone. Someday I'll be back to my old apathetic self that can just roll with all the punches.
