Well the no crying thing didn't last very long. An old member of our Resolve group showed up to the meeting tonight with pictures of her adopted baby boy. She adopted him last December. As soon as I saw those pictures I couldn't hold them back any longer.
We had a yoga instructor come to the meeting and we did a relaxation yoga session. As we got to the end and the really relaxing stuff, I almost had a panic attack. My body did not want to relax. I told Eric about it when I got home. He said it happens to him too. His chiro explained to him that when your body is used to being in a tense state all of the time, it begins to think it's normal. Then, when you finally get to a state of relaxation, your body rebels and ratchets up the tension to get back to "normal". So that's what was happening to me. I had to concentrate really hard on my breathing otherwise I would have lost it. It's sad. I used to be the most mellow, relaxed person. Just another thing that IF has done to me.
All of this stress has taken away my appetite, which is probably a good thing for me. I had a beer for dinner. Not that healthy, I know. I don't have the energy to fix anything, and I'm not hungry anyway. Bleh.
