BabyDragon's Den

Hello, @Bunniekins, @Former-Member, @Snowie, @Former-Member, @Former-Member, @Faith-and-Hope, @Zoe7, @Former-Member, @OhanaSystem, @Jojo2, @Former-Member, @soul, @Appleblossom, @Shaz51, @outlander, @Former-Member, @Mazarita, @eth, @CheerBear, @Adge, @MDT, @Sophia1, @Silenus, @eudemonism, @TAB, @KobeCat and anyone else who pops by.

This is my special space and for now i will only talk here while i make myself feel safe.

For those tagged, it is because I connected with you on my previous profile. It is still going through the phase of being permenantly deactivated.

If you realise who I am or even if you dont, please do not mention my previous name for the sake of my sense of safety.

I am not up to talking about the specifics of my reason for changing but the basics are I felt I was in danger.

Anyway I will be sticking to just this thread till I feel okay to re-engage in others.

Re: BabyDragon's Den

My friends tell me that I have made an achievement going a week without sh.

Is it really that great when I am just so emotionally numb that sh is not needed because I just don't feel the emotions that cause the need for sh

I put on my everything is okay face and keep going because that's what my son needs but on the inside I feel like I'm already gone

Hey @Former-Member, I know it may not feel like a big achievement but it can be and might feel better as time goes on when you can connect with the feelings a bit more.

If you are needing someone to talk to one on one about these feelings at the moment, please don't hesitate to contact one of the below numbers okay?

Lifeline: 13 11 14 or Crisis Chat

Suicide call back service: 1300 659 467 or online counselling

Samaritans: 135 247

Re: BabyDragon's Den

hey @Former-Member

Sorry to see you like this. I guess it is a good thing in a sense that you don't want to feel like sh - even if you feel numb. I've had that experience in the past and as unpretty as it is, it is better that way i think. It means we won't make bad choices. Does that make sense?

I like how you want to be there for your son too. That's awesome. I doubt that there would be anything you could do to make him think you weren't caring for him. I've sometimes noticed this in my own mum who is a very caring soul herself. I think sometimes putting on a brave face can take it out of you, but so long as you are there when he needs you then that's all that matters - brave face or not 🙂

Have you tried just chatting to Lifeline?

Take care friend. The forums are here for you

Re: BabyDragon's Den

Well @Zoe7,

I am here feeling better than I have in a long time. While I am still not what you would class as good I am not in the terrible dark place I was in.

It's time for new beginnings, new healing, new perspective and new lively hood. It's a long way up but it's time to stop dwelling at the bottom
