Feeling all sorts of stuff

Feeling all sorts of stuff

Today has been intense. Some wins, some triggers, and a bunch of everything in between.

I feel numb at the moment. Im lying in bed hearing a bad domestic incident from my neighbours. Im starting to disassociate. It's overwhelming. Sometimes that happens next door but tonight's is intense, idk if I should involve police or anything.

It's putting a damper on the achievement of finally being discharged from community mental health after the discharge process began 3 months ago. My gp is now fully in charge of my medical and mental health treatment.

My life has come a long way over the years. Im safe now. My mind hears what going on over the fence and regresses, I feel like I'm their kids. Idk.

Re: Feeling all sorts of stuff

Hello @The-red-centaur I can hear how much it's affecting you at the moment. Do you have some headphones that you could put on to maybe try to quieten the noise? If you are concerned for anyone's safety whether it be your own or others you could always ring the police and just let them know what's going on.

Well done being discharged from the community mental health team, that's amazing and I'm so proud of you, you have come such a long way ♥️.

I'm here if you would like to chat at all.

Re: Feeling all sorts of stuff

Sorry to hear you're struggling, I dissociated for the first time the other day and it is so intense and terrifying. It's so hard to explain to others how it feels, like an out of body experience. I'm trying to parent 2 kids with poss Autism and extreme anxiety, I feel you!
