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

Mental health funding has been so low for so long that they just don't have the people anymore. My partners daughter tried to hurt herself Saturday night and no mental health support was offered. It is a really sad state Australia is in at the moment, funding for important things is non existent. There are good people out their @Fluttershy1 I hope you find them. If you have a good friend it can make all the difference.

Re: Starting to struggle

sounds hard for you @Fluttershy1 , prob stay away from ex. I moved back to near ex 5 months ago, think saw them once, but have managed to stay away. Also worry what they would say/do if met them.

Good luck with the course, signing up , being interested and attending are the main things

@Fluttershy1

It sounds like things are really difficult for you at the moment. I would block those nasty people on all social media accounts. If you feel like it doesn’t stop you can report it to esafety commissioner at https://www.esafety.gov.au

It a hard when family don’t understand.

It’s also challenging when no one believes you even if you’re right. I’ve had that happen to myself.

Try focus on one thing at a time. If I think about too many things it just scrambles me.
