Talking through trauma and PTSD

The me no one knows - SI warning

The me no one knows - SI warning

I’ve made this space to have somewhere safe to talk and share things.

to chat with every one who has shown concern about and for me.

I have spent almost all my life masking, from as far back as primary school (possibly younger).

almost no one knows the real me. Not sure if I even know the real me.

my past is filled with lots of darkness. People I’ve tried to speak with during my life either don’t believe me or don’t want to know

@AlwaysMyself @Bunniekins @Captain24 @Cuddlebear @rav3n @Jynx

hiding behind the mask pretending nothing is wrong. Putting on brave face whilst inside I’m a shattered pieces. Feeling lost and completely alone. No one wants anything to do with me. Relatives only contact when they want something. Going to bed every night hoping to never wake again

Re: The me no one knows - SI warning

@Flutterbug9 how are the 'casual challenges' going for getting out a bit more? Did you find out about the drumming? 😊

And what, pray tell, are 'ziplock alfresco blinds'?? 🤔

All I can think of is dining alfresco, putting the leftovers into a ziplock doggy bag, and umm... then I get confused trying to picture blinds that represent this 🤣

Will be a few weeks before I know how I go with putting the ‘casual challenges’ into reality @Jynx


Ziplock alfresco blinds = outdoor roller blinds

Re: The me no one knows - SI warning

I’m tired @tyme Tired of the pain. tired of the tears. Tired of the mood swings almost every day. Tired of feeling like part of me deep inside is constantly in tears. Tired of fighting against panic attacks. Physically tired as can’t get decent sleep

@Flutterbug9 Back-reading now. just seen the comment - can remove if you want. 😊

Now I need to go back to my own past comment to see what I said too lol. 😛

Hearing you are tired of everything currently @Flutterbug9 *hugs* whilst I am reading. I care. I know how heavy it can feel.

Does tomorrow feel too close, or too far away?

Re: The me no one knows - SI warning

@Flutterbug9 Comment makes sense. I work at the state/territory-level body of that industry. Or, I did, until they restructured and removed the IT section of it to standup an IT-only entity, and now its a portion of that new entity but still dedicated to the same industry/program as before still. New org name, same job day-to-day. And of course the workplace LOVES acroynms 😂.

I hope you get some good sleep tonight. It sounds like you really need it, from both the fatigue and to reset from this evening's feelings/thoughts/anxiety. *hug*. Here for you.

Re: The me no one knows - SI warning

Awww @Flutterbug9 - do you mind accepting a virtual hug? It sounds so so so hard.
