Hi guys

i created a new thread so not to trigger anyone and not to override your post @Zoe7

Firstly thank you for all your support over today and last night and being concerned. i did ring a hotline today (suicideline). im sure they are sick of hearing from me by now.

it has been a massive night and day starting with a trigger post and things just kept pileing up one thing after another.

the forums were just too hard to be on for the past day and i just needed to distance myself for abit.

I thought i had supports off the forum besides my gp and psych but i havent. my family isnt supporting me now and the two friends that i did have have split the scene. (they were friends before i came into the pciture so kinda expected). like a chain reaction.

@Zoe7 - my 'guardian angel' thank you for all your hugs and kind words and thinking im resilient.. you are such a beautiful, caring person and i appreciate it

@Former-Member - i was stupid enough not to call the helplines last night but i pretty much forced myself to ring them today. thank you for sticking around last night. greatly appreciated.

@Faith-and-Hope - i really appreciate you help. Zoe was right about you. i did get in contact with a helpline just not straight away like i should have.

@Former-Member- thank you for taking the time to help me out today. i really appreciate it.

I cant remember the rest or find if anyone else said anything so i hope i tagged everyone....

i really appreciate all your help. im still not back to whether id like to be so i might not be around the forums as much as id like to but ill be around is anyone needs me esp all of you, so dont hesitate to tag me in things if you need me ok ?

i really cant express how much i really appreciate you guys being there for me. i could feel all your 'hugs' coming through the screen as i was reading through the comments.

i didnt want to come on here earlier in case i came across another trigger, even unintentionally so i thought it would be safer to stay distant.

i also didnt want to come on here and set anyones triggers off, nor upset anyone and i didnt want to offend anyone through the day for any reason.

i wont tell you everything that happened today as itll be triggering for many of you if not all depending on sensitivity to certain things. but i can tell you ther were many things that were happening and none of them were good (i thought i was going to end up in hospital last night and today up until about 5pm) ive just started to clam down now. i hope this doesnt set anyones triggers off at all. please let me knoe if it does and ill edit so i leave that part out ok? i wont be offended, not in the slightest

i think part of the reason i pulled through today was because of you guys. i could 'feel' your support even the minor ones. so THANK YOU!!!!

I honestly cant express that enough.

Re: Thank you Everyone

Try and imagine that we are there with you .. and maybe you will feel some support.

We can be doing lots of responsible things but we are allowed to be human. You have had a lot of responsilbility on your shoulders becasue of young uns, It is time to do it.

Fear is a mind killer and it can set up a loop .. that goes round and round .. that you came to @Zoe7 party was a good way of stepping outside that loop. And Yes we were all silly as well as serious .. thats how life often is.

Re: Thank you Everyone

Okay @Former-Member .....

Firstly ..... it's absolutely natural to be afraid and for a sense of panic to overwhelm you .... so acknowledge your feelings ..... which is one fantastic thing about the forums ..... when you are in the process of telling someone what the problem is, it is acknowledging it to yourself as a part of the process .... ✅

Next ..... understand that you don't have to stay in that place of feeling panicked .... you have acknowledged it ..... validated it .... and now comes a choice .....

You can let it go ..... it's alright to let the panic go ..... ✅

It was something worthy of panic ...., but you can now start to reason with yourself about the next choice ..... ✅

There is a whole range of possibility in front of you, ranging from worst case scenario to best case scenario ...... imagine it's a Roulette table ..... are you going to put all your money on number Worst Case Scenario, or are you coming to spread your money around ..... some here, some there .... and maybe .... maybe .... put some on number Best Case Scenario ?? ..... ✅

Think about it ..... take some deep breaths to slow the adrenalin hit that panic gives you .... and also recognise that you don't even have to settle on how you feel, or how you will feel, in this moment ...., you don't have to cross that bridge until you come to it .... ✅

Roll your shoulders a bit to loosen up your back muscles ..... breathe ..... close your eyes and focus on calming your body system .... open all the windows in your mind and let the panic out .... like butterflies ..... ✅

Breathe ....... and know that it will be our joy to be there with you in spirit ..... ✅

❤️💕

@Former-Member

Ditto to both @Appleblossom and @Faith-and-Hope

You know I am a flutterby - and I sit on a few shoulders - it's really easy 'cos I'm small - so tomorrow imagine I am sitting on your shoulder too - whispering in your ear "we are all here with you, comforting you, holding you up and carrying you if you need"

... print this if you want and carry it with you...

Re: Thank you Everyone

@Faith-and-Hope

i would proabably spread it around but im so terrified of worse case scenario. im making me extremely nervous and ive hit full panic mode again 😞

i am breathing, its just not helping that much
