I'm not in a good space right now

Hey @Arizona , sorry that you're feeling awful. I hope the audio book is a good one. I admire your ability to check in with yourself and your self care skills, to me it seems like whenever you post here about feeling bad, you always post about what you're doing to connect with your pug or about doing something nice for yourself. Hopefully you'll feel better soon.

Hey, regardless of how you're feeling you're still in the wake of well earned progress.

It can be helpful to remind yourself that wellness is more of a journey than a goal. You come down from one mountain, trek through the valley and start climbing the next one. OMG, we are Sisyphus's boulder aren't we. Whoever came up with that analogy must of lived in a very hilly area. Maybe recovery is about having the mountaineering adventure and not carrying a boulder (or swapping for something more carryable).

And, that's what we call a mixed metaphor.

Hey @Arizona

When you feel better, it seems like your suggesting that sticking up for yourself made you feel awful? How did the interaction go, was it full of emotion or did it involve just talking about behaviours and impact?

hi @Arizona and welcome to the forums not sure if Ive come across your posts before but I would just like to say something positive to you if thats ok I can hear that your struggling today but I also think that its so great that inspite of how your feeling your still finding things in your everyday life to be thankfull for so well done for reckognising those positive things,also listening to audio books sounds like a good idea and do be gentle with yourself,what are some of your favourite audiobooks?
