Re: rough time
yeah i know @Zoe7 it feels like one step forward and 100 steps back. it really does feel like theres a constant flow of triggerrs or the emotions just constantly linger no matter what i do.
its been more than just today but the past day or so ive been slipping further and todays even lower. i have been trying to just be ok but im not sure i really am even though i am really trying. its been like it for a little while but ive been able to maintain it as just low and knowing itll pass but it doesnt seem to be passing. ive been doing more self care and different types too like reading, baths, a few walks here and there and a few short but scenic type of drives as well as movies and chatting here and just chilling but im really not getting anywhere.
its both frustrating and upsetting. i jsut want to start being ok or good more not just for a few hrs or a day

Re: rough time
This is when having those external supports can really help too Hon to help you work through how you cope in these times - I know you don't have those yet but it will happen. It sucks that you are feeling like this but I also know you can get through it - you may not be able to see it yourself today but you are so much further ahead than you were this time lst year or even a few months ago - that is a win that we here can see even if you can't. I can see that you have taken many steps forward and there are going to be days when you tske some steps backwards again but that does not extinguish the ones you have taken forward in a huge way @outlander

Re: rough time
Being at your mum's is just a period of time you need to get through @outlander - I know there is so much that triggers you there but you can get through it. How long are you going to be there? Can you do something with your sisters to occupy your mind a bit?

Re: rough time
@Zoe7 i am so torn. It triggers me being here but i dont know if its a good idea to be at home alone. Atm i feel so skrewed up that i dont really think it matters where i am. I want to try and stay as safe as possible though
