My special place

SnowieSenior Contributor15 Feb 2018, 9:51 am AEDT

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

Nightmares have become more frequent. I think I know what has triggered it and trying to work on it. Just have to wait till my psych is back to talk it through with him.

I am not sure about a crafts woman! But it has been distracting so been good in that way.

Seems like you have had a busy day @outlander and the day isn't over yet.

Re: My special place

Im glad you have an idea of what might be causing it, did you want to talk about it at all? @Snowie
Costume making isnt an easy feat! Neither is patchwork. I cant sew for the life of me, cant even get the thread through the needle! Im starting crocheting and its been a good distraction for me too.
Do u have to add in all the jewels and things to the costume as well?

Re: My special place

I have spoken to HC about it. Problem is that my psych is away at the moment so I think that is effecting me too. He is back next week so hopefully that will help too.

The costumes are made for me, I just have to jewel them up!!

I saw you started crocheting which is good @outlander and if it is distracting you then even better.

Re: My special place

Re: My special place

I rely on him more than I want to @outlander. It has taken me a long time but I trust him, telling him things I wouldn't tell anyone else. Hopefully in time, I can rely less on him but I think that will be awhile off.

haha, she does look beautiful but I am probably bias too!!!!

I have to go and have a shower.

Thanks for the chat my sweet sis, it has been awhile since we just chatted and I miss it so much

Re: My special place

@Snowie it is still so good you have someone you trust. Over time and when your ready youll start relying less and less but right you you need the support.
Well im not bias and i havent seen her but i already know shes beautiful with or without jewels.
Ive missed our chats too 💕

Re: My special place

Had DBT Intro again today. Six sessions down and only two to go.

Today we looked at values and what values are important to you and then had to pick one key value to set SMART goals towards this week. Also looked at Distress Tolerance Skills and started looking at what we can can do when we are in crisis mode. Nothing I hadn't heard before.

Homework this week is mindfulness and achieving one of my goals. Will see how I go.

Re: My special place

@Zoe7it went well. I made some time every night to fill it out. I could definitely see a few patterns happening during the week which I think I expected anyway.
