Starting to struggle

Starting to struggle

I was doing so well, my moods where manageable and now I feel like I'm losing control my anxiety is bad my flashbacks are more present, family are causing lots of stress and controlling me I don't know what to do, it all feels really to overwhelming.

I feel like my whole world is falling apart, my stress levels are high, my moods are always fluctuating, I have random anger outbursts, I'm isolating myself from nearly everyone.

My dad hasn't even really contacted me, I'm really upset, I feel like he doesn't care or even wants to give me a call to see how I am. His wife is really controlling and she tends to judge me. They want me to go to Christmas with them and I don't even want to see them.

I find this time of year is triggering.

Am safe

My other favourite is 'every storm runs out of rain'. They sound cliche but sometimes they work!

Sorry to hear that @Fluttershy1

Is there something nice you could do for yourself?

I had a bath before and it helped me.

Hi @Fluttershy1

That's not great news. I'm glad you found the fortitude to share and reach out here though.

I really like @Snowie idea of warm bath for destress. Epsom salts are amazing too!

Are you ok? 💜

Re: Starting to struggle

@Fluttershy1 do you mean meh as in sadness, unmotivated, stressed? ☺️

I think you are smart. Perhaps things get you down because you see more than some other people.

Can you find a way to express some of these emotions?💜💕💜
