Something’s not right

Riding a wave

Riding a wave

Hi all,

@CherryBomb, @Former-Member or any other @Former-Member floating around Forum Land, will you ride a wave with me? I thought I would be fine doing something...but it turns out that the something has made my big feelings BIG and now I'm in a pickle...and there's nothing worse than a pickled turtle! I'm going to go and snuggle in my bed so I probably won't actually respond to you, but it will still super help me to know that I am not utterly alone on the wave. I don't want to tag anyone else because I don't want anyone to feel they need to respond. Thank you in advance for riding with me.

@Baboo Ok...I will go and make a hot chocolate and eat something...even though I'm super not hungry. I'm going to assume that you will read the previous post about why the crisis lines hang up on me, rather than me re-telling the story. In a nutshell, I have autism as well as BPD and when I'm super dysregulated I can't find my words. Would you like me to make you a hot chocolate too? I'm super glad you found me in this underwater cave. You must have a sea turtle tracking device or something.

@Former-Member well that could be tricky since we are sitting in an underwater cave. It's fine for you to go and hang out in the octagonal room. I just need to know there's SOMEONE around...and @Baboo is here so I'm fine. I'll be ok @Former-Member. I've got this.

Re: Riding a wave

yum as- thankyou. I do not have a sea turtle tracker but I do have good eyes and ears, and I can hear and see when some one sticks their flipper up or calls out for a hand or company when the water is moving too quickly

Ok @Baboo, I have my hot chocolate and some tuna and ricecakes for dinner...even though I know that fish are friends, not food!!! I feel super sleepy after that gigantic flood of emotion. Methinks I will be snuggling into my shell to sleep super soon. I feel frustrated because I have done absolutely nothing all day except stay alive...which I know is a kind-of important something...but there are a lot of other things I would like to be doing!

So...I don't think we have actually met before. Hello, I'm Phoenix_Rising. There's not really much to know about me. I'm just your average run of the mill autistic sea turtle with BPD. I have a big muddle that has accumulated over the past twenty years and I kind-of generally just keep swimming, anticipating that one day the muddle will be less muddled. I am SUPER grateful that I discovered the SANE forums a couple of months ago. This is the best resource I have right now to help me in my muddle.

I'm not quite sure what has happened over the past few days. I guess muddles just have a tendency to ebb and flow like the tides and my muddle is currently at high tide.
