Something’s not right

Numb again

Numb again

I have tried contacting online support but everything is unavailable or offline .

I was raped 7 years ago and things happen so I made myself numb and supprised everything. I learned about the breathing techniques as well as the 5,4,3,2,1 tool. Tonight it's not working . I am having flash backs like crazy and I can't get my mind and body to calm down to relax and sleep . At this stage I am in for a night of night terrors and I can't do that again tonight. I am shutting down again but not sure how to stop it .

I am snacking on cheese bisuits @Pollyotter I don't often buy biscuits but these were on special and I haven't had them for years. Tobes is sitting right on top of me expecting some as well - and of course I will oblige. Enjoy you comfy bed - hope you get some sleep.

It takes a strong mind to resist puppy eyes
How strong are you?
I am weak I cave so quickly it's not even funny

Re: Numb again

I usually cave pretty quickly too @Pollyotter but he is a good boy - he never jumps or grabs for food. I have taught him to wait and can even sit his biscuit on his nose until I say Go - then he takes it carefully. It is the only trick I have taught him ...he still doesn't come when I call him - especially if he has found something more interesting to follow or play with.

Re: Numb again

Yes he is @Pollyotter 🐶 Most of the time he is right next to me or following me around but take him to the beach and he does his own thing. He will run 50 metres ahead of me but always looks back to make sure I am still coming then runs off again. He does wait at the end of the beach for me to catch up then foes the same on the way back - it is his happy place

Had a nap but woken by ...guess who lol ....jumping on me to get up - fur baby dinner time. Both are fed now and I need to think about the same for me. Not really hungry yet though so might have a later dinner tonight.

Re: Numb again

AAA yes. I do miss having fur Babies @Zoe7.
My pug named Quinn used to sit on my chest and sneeze in my face... Nice ain't it . I'm glad you had a nap so your recharged.maybe leave the wall and rest for tomorrow so your leg can rest some more .

Late night food .

Re: Numb again

I am going to leave the walls until tomorrow @Pollyotter but will do one coat on the ceiling tonight. It should only take an hour (maybe less) because it is a pretty small room.

haha Tobes sneezes on me ocassionally too - and it does not bother me one little bit. I have no worries cleaning up after my own fur babies as they are like my children.

I love Quinn for a name. I want another cat as my sister has just recently got a new kitten. He had a brother but the breeder wanted to keep him - which really disappointed me because I wanted one too. It was actually the one my sister got that I had chosen. Her little kitten is supposedly a real terror but when I was there last weekend he sat on my knee and curled up for nearly an hour - neither my sister or her partner could believe it.

What's for dinner? I'm having pizza - it's in the oven now 🍕
