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.

It really is @Nala2022 - I’m also watching the stars on my roof, I’m laying on my sensory mat because I turned my heater on. I was super cold

Re: Does it ever stop

What a really awesome update @Fluttershy1

Being able to say that you're feeling positive about today, is a great acknowledgement of all the hard work that you've been putting in to take care of your wellbeing!

Our brain has the tendency to forget days like these when the lows come. So it might be helpful to to do something to also remember that days like this do happen, for those days when it feels like coping doesn't feel possible.

I hope that your day continued with even more laughs, and that you are taking this time to give yourself the extra kindness that you deserve 🏵

Take care!

Haiiiii @MindfulMango - it’s been an interesting 24 hours I must say, a lot of emotions running etc. hoping I get accepted for an admission because I think one is needed.

I’ve had a few things thrown in my way but I’ve managed it.
