Something’s not right

Oscillation between two mind sets

Oscillation between two mind sets

Sometimes I feel like I’m on top of things and don’t feel like my trauma defines me and I don’t feel so ashamed and scared. Other times I want to hide from the world and feel like a **** (I’m not going to say the word here since I don’t want to trigger anyone) 😭, I feel so ashamed that I don’t want people to know

Re: Oscillation between two mind sets

@Shaz51, I took fish out of the freezer, had it with some bread and cucumber. What are you having?

@RiverSeal, it helped a little but I’ve had way too much on my mind today. I found myself disassociating while talking so I just told the crisis text supporter at the time that I would reach out later if needed. Bipolar and CPTSD are a rough combination. I know my pdoc gave me the heads up of taking a bit extra meds, but I guess I’ve been trying not to. I already had a dosage increase recently

Re: Oscillation between two mind sets

@Shaz51, leftover pizza sounds nice.

I just had dinner, still feeling ugh. I don’t think the heat is helping, I feel faint. Memories won’t leave, I suppose I will need to let them pass. It’s taking a toil on my self worth. I feel so worthless, so disgusting, I feel like I’m to blame 😢

Heat does not help @creative_writer so important for us to keep cool 😎 and hydrated

Re: Oscillation between two mind sets

@Shaz51 yes I’ve had lots of water, I think it’s just too hot in Melbourne this weekend. I don’t have air con in my room either, just in bed in front of the fan feeling utterly miserable. I’m hoping it passes, but it’s sticking for a while

Yes, @creative_writer use a wet cool washer on your face and wrists

The weather up here is very muggy and wet this weekend

When you start doing something you sweat soo much

Re: Oscillation between two mind sets

@Shaz51, I was browsing through online stores. I need a pick me up, buying something may empty my bank account but it’ll make me feel better. What are you up to? xx

What drink do you like xx

In response to: Re: Oscillation between two mind sets

Re: Oscillation between two mind sets

@Shaz51, if you asking about cold drinks, then probably coconut water. I also love my tea, like matcha, ginger, camomile floral blend one. What about you? xx

In response to: Re: Oscillation between two mind sets

Re: Oscillation between two mind sets

Ohh , they sound nice @creative_writer , I will have to try some of those drinks

I like camomile tea

And I used to grow lemongrass to make lemongrass tea which is nice
