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

Re: Starting to struggle

Sure I can @Fluttershy1 . I can’t bring a teddy to the picnic though because I don’t have one!

You might need to share yours with me - if that’s okay.

Re: Starting to struggle

Awesome @Fluttershy1 !

Phones don’t last very long nowadays. By the time you have to change the battery, you may as well buy a new one.

The phones seem to be getting larger and larger in size. I hate the big ones because I have small hands and they don’t fit in my pocket. Hence I bought the smallest mini which came out last year. I’m pretty happy with it.

Then again, I use my iPads a lot more than my phone. I use the iPads for work so hence I have the LARGEST one out!

I hope you like your new phone. I think it’s so clever how they can retrieve all of your info with a click of a button and install it on your new phone. Makes life so much easier.

Thanks for sharing your teddy. I appreciate it.

Re: Starting to struggle

I only use the iPads for work eg meetings, zoom, WebEx. @Fluttershy1


Rarely I might watch something on them, but I never play games.

I hope your phone will keep you entertained. The camera on my iphone13 is pretty awesome too. It’s all I need. Im not planning to be a photographer any time soon.
