The first thought that I had this morning was....
"Perhaps I should get up now"
How are you feeling today?
I'm fine. Not overly positive, but also not really negative. It's how I feel a lot of days out of the week, actually.
The first thought that I had this morning was....
I’d better get moving as I’ve a busy work day ahead..
How are you feeling today?
I’m feeling ok but have a few things on my mind.

Hi, Butterfly,
- The first thought that I had this morning was....deep, deep sadness because I had a nightmare about the death of a 20 year old cat I used to have. I had him since he was 9 weeks old and we grew very close over the years.
- How are you feeling today? Mixed. Anyone who knows what is happening in my life knows that I am battling terrible circumstances and battling to maintain a forward looking and every-so-slightly-upward-looking outlook. Until my blood family is out of my life, I will keep feeling pain.
Today,
Sun is shining
Woke up breathing
so should be good start
but feel sad
Today feeling OK. A bit more optimistic than yesterday so I guess that’s good 😊
The first thing tgat came to my mind is that it is almost Friday :) i am waiting for the weekend to spend time with myself and my partner.
I feel sleepy and tired today.
My first thought this morning was to be grateful for another day :)
@SoulfullyAButterfly thank you again for your thoughtful posts..
my first thought today was to achieve some much needed tasks, and surprised that I actually got 90% done..
also stopped drinking a little while ago (3weeks +/-) and again had the strength to say no to friends who brought me up some beer 🇦🇺🦘✌️🌄🐾 they asked a few times and once over the shock they were understanding., also weird but a great thing for my mental health..
Oh I was thinking going to be a packed full day and on the very warm side. And try to stay Positivr and grumpy lol@SoulfullyAButterfly
Today I really don’t have a positive thought. It was a rough night and I probably slept 4 hours. Now I get to shower and go to work. I’m having a very hard time right now.
The first thought I had this morning, was that I slept through the entire night, which is rare for me!
- The first thought that I had this morning was.... Let me get some caffeine in my system! And that... is exactly what I did!
- How are you feeling today? I am doing alright! Although it is barely 7 AM for me currently. I am going to try and make today a productive day on 7 Cups.
@HopefulBambi
Hehe, that was my 2nd thought this morning! Sipping that wonderful beverage right now!
@HopefulBambi great attitude and screen name ✌️🐾🇦🇺🦘🌄👍

- The first thought that I had this morning was... "Wow, what a bad dream" lol, but it's okay, and those bad dreams are getting better. It involved my mom and meanness. But I reflected with gratitude on the positive things she gave me, and the love she gave me despite the dark aspects of our relationship while she was alive. I thought, today will be a good day, it doesn't matter if I had a bad dream. I am loved.
- How are you feeling today? (💛💚) (couldn't decide, but leaning toward green!)
My first thought about this morning is errands because I'm an adult. Closer to my bigger goal(s) and money to pay rent. More adult life. Heading towards freedom.
Pretty bad, for kind of personal reasons, not all of which I am comfortable sharing yet, to a greater extent than this. Let’s just say, yesterday, when I was out on errands, I really got a sense that a lot of people disliked me or thought I was somehow repulsive, some of which people I didn’t even know. As I am trying to work from home, it is very difficult because I keep thinking why do people seem to hate me so much. Am I really physically ugly or repulsive? Are they forming really really negative assumptions about me? Any number of horrible worries like this keep going through my head and make it all but impossible to focus on my work! If so many people find it so easy to hate me, then perhaps I should be asking why am I even alive? Seems like I shouldn’t be, If my presence seems to bring out the worst in people!
I deal with this a lot. I've been thankful to learn more about Rejection Sensitivity. I live with a lot of assumptions about what other people think and it's always negative. I feel you. 🥰
@SoulfullyAButterfly
My first thought on waking was, "I slept through!" An uninterrupted night's sleep is a rarity these days. But probably just a result of a very disturbed sleep the night before.
I'm feeling good.
@Clio9876
I can relate to this. A sound sleep helps you to wake up fresh and there's some magical peace of mind which you get after a good sleep.
So happy to know that you're feeling good. Hope you have a great day/night ahead!
@SoulfullyAButterfly
It is that time of day where I begin to really look forward to spending time with my wife over dinner. It's a beautiful thing!!!!
@anamcaranv
That's beautiful indeed ♥️ Thank you for sharing this. ☺️
@SoulfullyAButterfly
First thought:
I realized I over slept.
I'm feeling:
It's going to be a beautiful day ahead!
First Thought: "Wow, I am still here."
Feelings: Grateful 🙏🏾 and prayerful.
My first thought was about my 1st steps in my plans for healthy change. Today is day 1.
Life is incredible and terrible at the same time. While sometimes I could do with a little less bad, I'm grateful for all of it nonetheless.
@SoulfullyAButterfly
the first thought i had today was to practice good hygienics and take my meds on time!
today, i am feeling normal, i plan on doing some chores, volunteering on 7 Cups, and playing alot of video games!!!
The first thought that I had this morning was why I wasn't able to wake up as early as before. Why do I feel so tired?
Thank goodness I eventually fell asleep!
I'm feeling so-so. I was up a lot in the night. I also realized that my physical pain is an eating when not hungry trigger. That's a great realization but now what to do with it....
The first thought I had today was that wow I slept well. (And to have tea to maintain that!)
Feeling excited about this week
I feel tired and sleepy.
The first thought i had is that i have to wake up for work. I also have to take my meds.
As I was awake most of the night, I'm not even sure where morning started!
@SoulfullyAButterfly
Argh it's only 4:15.
I'm ok. Yesterday was a better day in my progress. I wish I had better sleep but I will adjust as best I can.
