  2. Deep well
    Emotional trip
    Pressure
    Repeat
    Energy drain
    Seriously fowl
    Stuck in the mud
    Inner turmoil
    Off my rocker
    Needlessly complicated
    Involved in healing
    Seeking others
    Talking it through
    Actively involved

    Thanks Garry. I’ve felt one way or other from time to time!

    Healthy outlook
    Energize the bunny
    Always trying
    Love myself
