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 @DownMoreThanUp and @Fluttershy1 how are you both this evening?

Re: Does it ever stop

@creative_writer @Fluttershy1 Sadly i'm struggling with a major spell of depression, and struggling not to feel distrust and anger towards myself. Because after an episode this morning took my by surprise i did more damage in one of my relationship, before i realised i had done it.

@ENKELI @MissGremlin @tyme @

Crappy when that happens.


To the Depressed Mind,

To think less of yourself than what is true
Brings you much pain and suffering.
Your worth is of an incredible value—
Do not accept the lie that says otherwise.

Depression is also what lies bring inside,
Letting a low self-esteem your good life rob.
Untruths roaming freely through heart and mind,
Relentless lies extinguishing all happiness and joy.

Truth always dines on good life as a meal.
While to believe lies brings pain and grief.
So hold onto the truths you know are real,
refuse to let falsehoods your good life squander.

Take hold of truth that is steady and wont depart
A life in truth guards from lies that wound.
Truth will always meet your hurting heart,
And will faithfully seek to rebuilt life anew.

@DownMoreThanUp @ENKELI @MissGremlin @creative_writer @tyme @Invi @Jynx @rav3n - Where did I go wrong?

I feel like a lost cause tonight, I was denied mental health help as I was unwell and Mh triage have been sending me to message bank all afternoon and not giving me the option to leave a message which ended up leaving me with my last resort of attending the ER when I didn't want to because I knew that they weren't going to help and just end up turning me away like normal when I needed the help but no because I was unwell they told me I need to rest. I am safe

Im also over some of the housemates arguing as it upsets me and triggers me and all that, I'm just like can it all stop for bit. Because its not fair on me and the others when we are just minding our own business.

but I am safe, just sitting in my bed watching pitch perfect 3

Re: Does it ever stop

@Fluttershy1 I'm sorry that you were turned away sweet, i can imagine that hurt so much.

It must be so hard living with house mates that argue and especially when it's so triggering aswell. I'm sorry you are in this situation.

I'm here with you sweet, I'm glad you are safe and I hope it's helping to watch pitch perfect 3.

Re: Does it ever stop

Like you don't turn someone away even when they are sick even when they are struggling you should wear a mask and still support them... @MissGremlin - The system is sooooo broken

I wish there was so many things I could change

In response to: Re: Does it ever stop

Re: Does it ever stop

I agree @Fluttershy1, the system is very broken sweet, I've been fighting to get help myself for a very long time and yet I'm still without support.

In response to: Re: Does it ever stop

Re: Does it ever stop

I'm so sorry @Fluttershy1

The mental health system can be so unfair sometimes when you need immediate help. Have you looked into mental health crisis centres near your area? I found the best success going to a medicare funded one, and they directed me to further help.

In the meantime, you're doing so well at getting through. If you haven't already, put in noise cancelling if you have it and maybe have a comfort snack. I'll keep you in my thoughts, stay safe ❤️

Re: Does it ever stop

I am sorry @Fluttershy1, this all sounds so overwhelming for you.

What support do you feel you need most right now?

And I love Pitch Perfect! Such a great comfort movie. 🥰

@MissGremlin - They are so short staffed etc, they just are to overrun and don't get paid enough.
