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

Mine only last a few days @rav3n - I go through phases sometimes even weeks

It’s in the middle @DownMoreThanUp - I’ve landed back in ER not happy. But it was bound to happen.

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

That's so cool! And very cost effective. 💅

Do you have any suggestions I should look into??
Also, do you like pilates/yoga/other forms of movement? @Fluttershy1

Re: Does it ever stop

@AuntGlow - love walking, sometime yoga gotta be in the mood, for ideas you should look up paper cranes etc, swans things that are easy. To start off with, I’m on my way home so I’ll add more when I’m home.

Re: Does it ever stop

It sounds like things are feeling really big in your body right now @Fluttershy1. Know that we are here to hold these feelings with you, okay?

I am curious, what do you imagine that hiding/shutting down would allow you to feel right now? 💛
