Maybe not twice as strong, but still strong, and I feel just as unable to do anything about it. You sound like you are fishing for a more specific reply then the generality of your question would suggest though. What are your feelings besides simply that they overwhelm you? What are they about? What events surround them? If you can give that much background, perhaps it is easier for some of us, or just me in particular, to relate.
Most overwhelming to me is feeling lonely and so very emotional some mornings. I am reactive, as though cranky, and overall it is feeling of frustration like being unable to get comfortable. I am lucky if I am blessed with the sudden sensation of my eyes watering from time to time. It robs my energy and I have to talk myself up to things, to concentrating, to thinking, to relaxing. Everything is hard and unnatural. I feel I just want to fall to my knees and for my body to liquefy. I want only to hide in the deepest darkest corner. I want badly to be held close, to be helped, to be saved. That is the feeling of it. My mind will run like an engine which does not have the oil to keep from wearing on itself, or coolant to keep from overheating, but it is like something someone has neglected and does not care anything about or for. It must take the grace of God for me to take any foothold here and gently help myself into a better condition. The problem does not seem to have any cause at all, but it just happens, and I am to be patient and learn maybe to take better care of myself.
