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.

@Fluttershy1

I used to like cross stitch, but my eyes and hands aren't great, so I dont do it anymore. Its great you rotate your crafts. What are they?

I am glad you got out and about on the trains.

Its also really good you braved the messy communal living situation and made your food. Thats an essential need and right. Bravo!

Did you feel good talking to the one person, before the other wanted to join? Its hard when caught up in flare ups like that. I hope they find a way through it.

It seems as if many aspects of socialising are both super sensitive and tough these days.

At least you have variety in crafting @Fluttershy1

Swimming is good. I used to do that too.
