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’s getting frustrating because I’m trying to ignore it and help myself but it sometimes overpowers. @MissGremlin - making stars and sitting with Perry, but also know I have to make dinner aswell.

It’s annoying when that happens @DownMoreThanUp / sometimes I just lay there till I’m asleep

@Fluttershy1 I'm glad you had some pasta with cheese for dinner. It sounds very comforting sweet, I'm making stars while watching TV.

You're doing well sweet, keep going, you've got this ❤️.

Re: Does it ever stop

The problem has been our Geese. They been keeping me awake durning the day their trumpeting normally that did not matter but now so short on sleep i need to crash when i can. So i ask my wife, fro they are hers, what to do with them. If she could get some help rounding them up and selling them.

But she could not be bothered and told me don't feed them they will go away by themselves then. We have not been talking since.

i have not feed three times now and they are hungry and calling out every 15 20 minutes. Cute during the day not at night. So i might try and see if i can feed them. They are across the dam not sure if the will at night, chicken and fowl wont.Otherwise i could well be up all night from them. Pain. (When my wife stopped feeding her duck years ago it never left till it died years later.)

Difficult time for both we are both snowed under and find it hard to deal with even basic life decisions. Normally my wife is very conscientious about her responsibilities. And her no feeding in retrospect we both knew might not work from her duck.

(they would come in the dark. pain)

i hope you on one ear yourself.
