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

Very cheeky, what diamond art are you doing currently @MissGremlin - debating on actually starting crocheting myself again.

Re: Does it ever stop

@Fluttershy1 it's this one. But it's messed up cos the surface isn't sticky enough so the dots keep moving. I'm having to seal it as I'm doing it.

Crochet is good, I've just been doing random stitches to keep busy. But I do make things sometimes.

Well that’s annoying @MissGremlin - nova has just jumped on my bed and is laying on her back cleaning herself.

I’m just chilling in my room with nova @MissGremlin - I just got my blanket out of the dryer and put it back on my bed.

@Fluttershy1 there's nothing like nice warm blankets out of the dryer. I've just sealed the section i did of my diamond art.

Hi @Fluttershy1

Haha, sounds like the catnip toy was a hit! 😆

Oh no, not the mink blanket! I can understand why you weren't too impressed about that. Hopefully it's a one-off while she's settling in and learning the rules of her new home.

Even when they're being little troublemakers, they somehow still manage to be adorable 😊

How is she settling in otherwise and how are you feeling?
