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.

Hi @Fluttershy1

It sounds like you had a really full day 😊

I'm glad your support worker visit went well, and it must be such a relief to have your door fixed and not have to worry about getting trapped in your room anymore.

Nova doing zoomies for two hours straight sounds very entertaining 😆

I hope you found something good to watch and enjoyed a cosy evening of crocheting with Nova by your side

Hai @Nala2022 - it was pretty funny not going to lie. I’m glad my door is fixed because it was quite overwhelming .

nova is currently teething and chewing everything, she’s lost a few of her bottom teeth.

Hi @Fluttershy1,

That's great your door is fixed now. It sounds like it has taken away a lot of stress and worry for you.

Aww, little Nova is growing up! 😸 Teething days are not fun though!

Hopefully she leaves the important things alone and sticks to her toys 😅

How are you today?

Hai @Nala2022 - I’m ok I think, not sure taking the day hour by hour. Nova is still chewing cords hahaha. She knows she’s not supposed to. Everything just seems to be overwhelming and overstimulating.

im taking bro to get his hair cut. I’ll also go Kmart while im there.

I’ll be around abit, just need to keep busy and occupied

That can actually be the best way to get through it when everything feels a bit overwhelming and overstimulating, hour by hour.

Nova clearly has her little mischievous phase going on 😅

Hope getting out for a bit and a quick Kmart trip helps break the day up a bit and gives you a bit of a reset @Fluttershy1

Nala is doing well, she just had some treats so she will probably go back and have a nap now 🤣

Aww Nova is honestly so cute 😭💜 I can see why she’s keeping you entertained haha

It's so hard not to buy things from Kmart lol

I’ll be around until about 2, so we’ve got a bit of time to chat @Fluttershy1 😊

Re: Does it ever stop

@Nala2022 - she really is, buts she’s naughty sometimes, what treats have you given Narla?

Kmart is a danger zone for me, I wanna buy everything.

Nova is in teething phase she’s loving chewing everything and biting my feet.

Re: Does it ever stop

Haha it’s definitely cute when they’re being a bit naughty 😄

I’ve given Nala these chicken treat biscuit things before, she’s obsessed with them.

And omg same with Kmart… I go in for 1–2 things and somehow leave with a whole basket I didn’t plan for 😂

Haha I remember those days with Nala, good luck @Fluttershy1 lol

Re: Does it ever stop

@Nala2022 - is it the temptations treats? I give nova the puree ones aswell.
