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.

I am going to go and do what I need to do to keep myself alive tonight. I have a 100% success rate of surviving each day living with BPD. All is well. Night.

I will be thinking of you little turtle because you matter to me

Goodnight @Phoenix_Rising I really hope you are able to sleep and that this muddle is dealt with as a matter of urgency for you

Sitting here on my rock stack for you even when I'm not here!

I trust that your wise mind will allow you to do what you need to do to get through, and I respect whatever that might be for you @Phoenix_Rising. I so badly wish things were different so you didn't have to work so hard to get through.

Hi @Phoenix_Rising, @Zoe7, @CheerBear and @Faith-and-Hope,

@Phoenix_Rising I can see that things have continued to feel really confusing and hard for you again today, which I am sorry to see. I will send you an email shortly.

I am glad that you are going to do what you need to in order to get through the night. I will watch over the ocean tonight and hope for calmer seas tomorrow.

Thank you @Zoe7, @CheerBear, @Faith-and-Hope and @Former-Member for supporting @Phoenix_Rising through this muddle. I do hear you when you say that this has been having an impact on your all as well.

Giant giant giant wave.

Alone, alone,
all all alone,
alone on a wide wide sea,
and never a saint took pity on,
my soul in agony.

I do not matter,
I'm only one person,
Destroy me completely,
Then throw me away.

Re: Riding a wave

Froth and foam and swirling green
Amongst the waves a glimpse is seen

Little turtle paddling madly
Flippers up and crying sadly

Storm and thunder, roughest seas
But bravely battling if you please

Up and over tallest wave
Little turtle battling brave

But not alone amongst the foam .....

Flotsam flowers, flipping fish,
Flutterby, fly-by bookish ....
Sans n trees n rocks n stuff
Turtle not-friends, nice n tough ....
And teddy too, here for you.

Calmer seas now swimming all
Here to gather, none to fall .....

Re: Riding a wave

I super super super like that F & H. I am so scared. This situation is such a total repeat of my past. I'm good with boudaries F & H - honest, SO LONG AS THEY DON'T CHANGE. As soon as there is any tiny change, it triggers all the trauma stuff on a monumental scale. 😔😔😔
