Re: Anyone feel like chatting?

I never really saw reasons to homework either. Always having to write one of each of the five senses to ground me.. Then triggers - that I never was able to do. Then writing everything that makes me anxious.. Which is hard to think of because I feel anxious 24/7 and quite intensely too.

You'd be a miracle worker if you could help me identify triggers @outlander

Re: Anyone feel like chatting?

you @Former-Member should take abit of that advice yourself- dont put yourself down. your very smart yourself and it shows through your writing

triggers cna be hard to identify if your anxiety is alwasy high but there will be times when it feels more overwhelming or worse- these tend to be the more noticeable triggers

ok so you have PTSD, do you find yourself gettin upset around particular dates involving that event?

Oh my - well, I will try not to argue with you aha.

My memory is really bad.. I have a lot of blackouts of situations and everything so it all comes and overwhelms me out of the blue.. At random times. They believe that PTSD has something to do with my lacking memory as I do repeat things a ton because I forgot I did it.. or I forget to do things altogether. It could also be due to isolation but I dont know.

Re: Anyone feel like chatting?

Haha lol @Former-Member

ok so it sounds like one of your triggers is being lonley, getting embarrassed, and also you find that forgetting things upset you

thats 3 triggers

is there anything else you cna tell me- what do you find makes your anxiety worse? being crowded? rushing thoughts?

Re: Anyone feel like chatting?

Woah woah woah @outlander

Never thought of that. My anxiety gets worse even by stepping outside let alone being in a crowd. Having to talk.. High expectations.. Not being good enough... I get anxious over basically everything.

Re: Anyone feel like chatting?

Being alone in my thoughts bothers me - It makes me anxious if I dont recognise my thoughts.. Otherwise it just makes me very... upset or I feel trapped.
