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

Hai @DownMoreThanUp @Nala2022 @MindfulMango @MissGremlin @AuntGlow - got a date for my APARC assessment which will be Friday this week. So all hopefully will go well.

been triggered today so I bought myself a new Bluetooth speaker, took my brother to his sports with mum which also triggered me, a housemate has triggered me. Things are just falling apart at the moment but I’m doing things for me. Trying to keep myself afloat.

having a mint hot chocolate and laying on my sensory Mat watching SpongeBob and debating on if I’m going to do diamond art or go to bed.

im just drained. Am safe, cuddling with Perry aswell
