Something’s not right

My special place

My special place

Well yesterday certainly threw everything off track. But thanks to some very thoughtful and kind people I was able to get threw it and continue.

I cannot say a lot about what happened as I am sure you all understand but need this support in place.

Things WILL be ok, just a lot to work out.

Psych visit yesterday sorted out some of the things and more things will be happening early next week.

I am sorry if I put anyone through any despair, but unfortunately what happened yesterday morning had to be done.

Thank you all for your continued support.

Re: My special place

Here with you through your body flashbacks @creative_writer

Does anything help with them?

I think the less I say on here the better at the moment.

Re: My special place

@Snowie I find distracting myself helps with taking the focus off. I’m feeling almost normal now.

I’m hope you’re doing okay 💖🫂. Are you worried of saying too much in case it’s not aligned with new community guidelines?

Re: My special place

I'm glad that you are feeling better @creative_writer It's good that you can distract yourself.

I'm just worried all around. About the guidelines, if I say too much, the consequences, what I'm doing.

Re: My special place

@Snowie I feel like dinner can be quite distracting in itself when you’re with others. We got middle eastern takeaway. I’m feeling rather stiff and achy right now, but I can take the physical pain.

I totally get that, I hope we are able to get clarity around the new guidelines soon, I feel like many members are worried, I hope SANE is able to come with a resolution that protects everyone on the forums but still allows it to be a safe place to talk about things

Re: My special place

I hope it was yummy @creative_writer I'm glad you had your family around and that it helps.

I just don't want to be that person.

Re: My special place

@Snowie it helps to have them around at times. Other times it gets exhausting pretending. Dinner was good.

Do you think reaching out to a helpline would help?

Re: My special place

I agree @creative_writer Sometimes it helps, other times it is exhausting just pretending like everything is ok.

I've already done that. Hubby is finally home now so that will help.

Re: My special place

@Snowie it shows a lot of strength to reach out. I hope you did find it helpful. I hope spending some time with H helps relieves some of the tension 💖🫂

@Snowie Sorry to read you had a rough day yesterday 😢

Did it help or not help that you were alone?
