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.

Then Perry accidentally fell on the floor, now I’m going to sleep because he’s back on the bed with me and I’m sleepy as heck. Nite nite @MissGremlin

Re: Does it ever stop

@Fluttershy1 i just had 5 minutes of being in stitches laughing. I blew up a water balloon for Casper and he was playing with it, it got static and was stuck to his mouth so he couldn't grab it 😂. It was fun and games until he popped it, he loves playing with balloons 😂
