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.

Spoke to my psych this morning. Didn't even get through 1/4 of what I wanted to tell her. Now I don't know what to do. Yeah I can email her but that doesn't help with talking with someone about those things I need too.

Hi @Snowie 💞

Emaiking then might help you to "park it up" until you can speak to your psych in person, and it will also help them to see that you only got through 1/4 of what you had wanted to say. It's a way of paying things forward to your next psych meeting, meaning that you are supporting yourself towards achieving a better outcome next time.

Does that sound like something you could do ?

You might also find it more cathartic than you expect it will be.

Here is another self-care activity that you might be able to relate to ..... you could have a go at writing some poetry, even if it's just to tear it up or even burn it ..... sometimes just getting it outside of yourself can really help.

Thanks @Faith-and-Hope

I have written down what I needed to say, now just have to email it to her.

I wish I could see her in person but with lockdown that won't be anytime soon. Have to resort to phone.

I am no good at poetry, never have been. I do journal to try and get things out. I have burned it before.

It feels like so much is needed to come out.

Re: My special place

If you have any magazines @Snowie @you could try using pictures if you wanted to, gluing then into a journal, even in an abstract way, just using torn pieces of paper, or bits of words, or trends, or glass, or wheels ..... it doesn't have to be understood by anyone else, it's just a way to spill the emotional burden out somewhere.

You can scribble, or write over and over thnmungs until they are all layered up and unreadable to anybody else anymore ..... or write things down, cover them with glue and plaster images all over the top. If anyone tried to peek back the images it would just tear what you had written off with the glue.

It can be strangely engaging to do something like that, and bring a sense of relief afterwards.
