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.

Hai @MissGremlin @DownMoreThanUp @tyme @TAB @Jynx @AuntGlow @Appleblossom - feeling blah today, making stars and watching SpongeBob. So drained after yesterday but trying to put myself first and doing self care, mental health is still not great but I have a support worker this afternoon which should be good, I’ll probably keep myself busy with her as I need a distraction.

we might go to the shops and cook dinner, might start a new diamond art as my other one isn’t saveable I think. Which is really frustrating.

just keeping low key as I’m still not feeling well.

im safe

@MissGremlin - I just wanna feel like a normal person, I’m just trying to get through hour by hour by using my coping skills, making stars at the moment.

@Fluttershy1 i hear you sweet. You're truly doing so well to be using your coping skills and it's ok to just get through each hour as it comes.

Hai @MindfulMango @MissGremlin @NightHedgehog @SunsetSunrise - been a tough night was in ER, Saw D and tried to get a admission but she wouldn’t budge or admit me told me I’d be fine and better at home.

finally back home, D was very dismissive which didn’t help. But I’ll just keep trying to use my coping skills as I guess I’ll get through it.

laying on my bed with Perry watching SpongeBob. Chilling here. Might do some more diamond art tomorrow.

Hello @MissGremlin @MindfulMango @DownMoreThanUp @tyme @TAB @Jynx @AuntGlow @Appleblossom @Jacques @Invi @Snowie - today could of been better, my support worker had to take me to ER as I was not good this evening, we got given a calming meds to help my thoughts and voices in my head hopefully settle down as they have been running wild and nothing has been helping me and all of that.

im finally back home she made me dinner and made sure i was in bed as I’ve been laughing now I’ve chilled out and now im in bed, with Perry, waiting for my drink to cool down, so I can take my night meds and slowly wind down more for the rest of the night.

Might make some more stars but feeling pretty chilled out so I might just watch SpongeBob.

am safe

@MindfulMango @DownMoreThanUp @tyme @Appleblossom @NightFury @AuntGlow @Mustang67 @Shaz51 @MissGremlin @TAB @Jynx - feeling down tonight, trying to keep distracted with my stars and watching tv but that doesn’t seem to be helping, I’m debating on either retrying my strategies again or going to ER and my head seems to be quite chatty.

im currently watching tv and making stars with Perry, I started a new diamond art aswell.

am safe
