Need help.... feel totally alone
I so wish I had someone to talk to .... someone I could just really chat to and say what's going on.
Feeling so isolated and alone.

Re: Need help.... feel totally alone
I'm just really struggling atm. Had a pretty heavy confrontational session w my psychiatrist (who is my rock) and I feel like I need some closure from the conversation.
I'm having SH thoughts and the need to punish myself

Hi @Ayesha, good job logging in, as LJ said, "you're not alone now. Talk to us. Maybe start by describing the room you're in & what you're doing.

Re: Need help.... feel totally alone
I hate feeling like i didnt really get to 'finish' something or that things are up in the air after sessions... it sucks. I have felt that way before. my psychologist lets me email her in between sessions. so i'm able to get stuff off my mind sometimes by writing it away and knowing we'll get to it next time. uld it help to write some of the stuff down thats still buzzing, gnawing... so that you'll feel like you've at least done soemthing with it.
Then what can you do that will soothing and nice just for you?

Re: Need help.... feel totally alone
Why do we feel we have to punish yourself when someone hurts us?? Sounds like the session put your stress levels through the roof and the disconnected emotional pain is too much for you. Can you do some 'Grounding' exercises, or mindfulness to relaxing music? Or @TaiChi, Squeeze an IceCube, suck a lemon, burn some insense? Notice things.

Re: Need help.... feel totally alone
I'm finding my past really difficult to deal with my multiple MI really difficult to deal with and my recent very full on mania episode that to be quite honest scared me difficult to deal with.

Re: Need help.... feel totally alone
things are always changing... nothing stays the same... even though i hate the round a bout life that i seem to be on... i have started realising that for me at least things do change.. even if things seem really dark, difficult and hopeless for a while... it will ease up for a bit.. its easy for me to lose my perspective really quickly. i wonder if that could be happening for you abit (not to lessen what is going on for you though!) I have recently been just so low and overwhelmed that everything in my life is just awful... but the last week or so that fog has started lifting a bit again and i've been planning for next year again! working out what things are in my control and that i can focus on...

Re: Need help.... feel totally alone
I really don't know how I'm going to EVER accept all of this.
I'm on monthly visits with psychiatrist I am going to try and gather courage to ring and see if there is any room for a double appt.
