Hey all,
I keep losing myself, I recently lost a family member to cancer and had the funeral and have been struggling for a few weeks while grieving and dealing with a few other things in my life,
I just don’t know how to help myself while im stuck in this loop. I have a lot of other stuff on my plate that I’m trying to manage and was just trying to find a space to where I can express it.
im safe

Oh that's rough @Fluttershy1 I'm sorry to hear that you're not getting the support that you're looking for. What has changed?

I’m quite triggered at the moment, taking time to regroup myself @Jynx - triggered and in flashbacks not a good combo.

Regrouping is good @Fluttershy1 helps to take a moment to get ourselves centred. If you did want to update the team on your current needs and supports you're welcome to 😊
I am about to log off for tonight but I'll tag in the next @moderator if you need some further connection and support. You got this! I hope you get some rest tonight and that tomorrow is easier on you 💜

Hi @Fluttershy1 ,
Thanks for reaching out! I'm here, sitting with you this evening.
What things do you do to look after yourself when you're feeling like this?
