Something’s not right

Does it ever stop

Does it ever stop

Hey - I feel like I can’t escape how I feel, how I react to things, how flashbacks and people I see that have caused me trauma in the past and present. I feel like I’m just trapped in it some days constantly and that it just wants to stay and haunt me and not leave.

my house mates have been arguing constantly and it got to a point tonight where I yelled at them to stop as it is getting annoying as it’s nearly everyday and it never stops. Then one of them had a go at me and started yelling and telling me that it’s the other persons fault when it wasn’t even them. It’s just a constant run around and I can’t seem to escape it.

im just now curled up on my bed in tears because I’m so triggered and I don’t know what or how I’m feeling.

im safe

but it’s just bringing up all my past all over again.

Re: Does it ever stop

Hello lovely! How are you feeling today? I wasn't in when you tagged me last, I am sorry. @Fluttershy1

I saw your origami project though, they look awesome and so precise. How did you learn?

I am also glad to read that singing and dancing makes you happy - we have that in common. 🤩

Do you ever go to any classes or gigs where you can sing and dance with others? 🫶

No @AuntGlow - I like to keep to myself, I used YouTube to learn hahaha
