Do you have anything you can do as a distraction? Eg. colouring in, listening to music, showering, having a cuppa, watching tv etc

Re: Life and trauma

@Oaktree I've tried everything possible. But I'm just left angry and frustrated at myself cos nothing is working.

I am sorry that nothing is working. I usually go to bed if nothing else works but I know that doesn’t work for you.

Re: Life and trauma

@Former-Member I'm sorry you didn't get too much sleep. I can't even imagine how mentally and physically exhausted you must be right now!

Do you have any ideas at all when it all seems so much more difficult at the moment compared to previous times?

Re: Life and trauma

@Former-Member I'm sorry it has come to this, but it sounds like the best way forward considering how much of a toll everything has taken on you recently. I really hope this can get you some of the support you need. I know you've tried so incredibly hard but its also hard to recognise and accept our own limits so dont see this as weakness or a failure, just you being strong enough to recognise your limits.

Thanks for letting us know what is going on and please keep us updated on how you're doing. I really hope that you can feel better soon.

@MJG017 it's my heart that's the biggest issue now. Been sitting at 179 for the last 5 hours. I'm on my way to the hospital now but it's not looking good. Thankyou for everyone's kind words ❤️

Re: Life and trauma

@Former-Member I'll keep you in my thoughts and hope they can get that heart rate down. I've seen how that can affect people like with that friend i mentioned who had similar hear issues. so much stuff you're dealing with, surely there's some good news due to you soon. Take care Gremlin and rest up as much as you can.
