Every time I turn around

Every time I turn around

Hi All,

First time here. Guess I just want somewhere to reach out to.

I have bipolar and complex trauma. The last several months both have been playing up, more so the trauma stuff.

Every time I turn around there is a problem or issues. And then every other time, things shut in my face. I have spent years trying to get help and settle everything. Yet nearly every time, people run out of ideas and I am too complex.

I sit her and go how can I be too complex?

I work, I participate in the community, I am back to studying full time. On top of this I function - just with difficulties. How am I too complex?

All I would like is some help to deal with issues. But because I am post-grad psychology, there are few therapists that will help. Again, live in a isolated area, so limited services. Oh but try telehealth - oh wait, your too high risk.

How are you not supposed to get down and sick of everything? How are you supposed to see the point in continuing? It's not like I am not trying to sort things, and waiting for everyone to fix my problems. So why does everyone feel it's "too hard".

sorry, probably a slight rant.

It's so hard when you want something and it isn't happening the way you imagine it. It's a strain for both of you. It's sounds like you're both really stressed.

Try to go gently 💝
