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

@Fluttershy1 looking at the stations and going to the arcade sounds lovely and well done winning some plush toys for your keys ☺️.

That sounds really frustrating and I'm sorry that the night ended with a massive argument. How are you feeling after that happened?

Re: Does it ever stop

@Fluttershy1 i hear you, I can imagine it would have been so hard being in that situation. Your feelings are valid and you didn't deserve to be in that situation.

Maybe you could find something small to eat and then hop into bed?
