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.

Hey @creative_writer @MissGremlin @Jynx @TAB @AuntGlow @SunsetSunrise @tyme @NightHedgehog @Appleblossom @Snowie - been a tough day as I’ve been unwell physically got rsv & a cold again, picked up my click and collect from Kmart and a support worker helped me put my 2 flat packs together so now I have more storage for my craft stuff and my tv is just sitting on top.

my emotions have been like a roller coaster, I dislike this feeling but am trying to sit with it, I’m just anxious, making lucky stars, watching SpongeBob. And Perry.

am safe
