My special place

@Snowie my psych told me at the end of yesterday and today that I need to work at keeping myself present over the coming days. But in all honesty, sometimes it just feels easier to let myself go, let myself float, disassociate.

I'm sorry to hear how tough tonight is for both of you @Snowie @Bow .

I'm here with you.

Also, you can reach out to our drop-in line to speak to a counsellor if you feel it will help tonight 1800 187 263.

Thanks @creative_writer

@Bow I haven't seen my psych for over 5 weeks. She is on holidays.

The effort to try and stay present tonight is so tiring. I don't know what to do.

@tyme I don't know if I can talk about it. It's like opening a can of worms. My brain is just deceiving me.

@creative_writer I speak to my pdoc in a few days but that is just by phone.

I am really missing the face to face.

I’m sorry it’s been so long since you’ve seen your psych @Snowie its so hard when they are away.

here with you

Without my psych's support I feel powerless @creative_writer @Bow

Useless, pathetic, no good.

@Snowie

Your brain is deceiving you. Telling you want it wants you to believe right now.

The sun has gone down. Your brain is naturally producing chemicals that cause your brain to catastrophise. This is what our brains are made to do. Evolution has meant we needed to be on high alert in the evenings in order to protect ourselves from predators.

So what you are feeling is okay.

Hence, we are sitting with you through this tough time.

@tyme I am going to go to bed and take my meds. I think by staying up it might just end badly.

Thank you.
