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 .

Just need to go into settings then into sounds and you should be able to do it from there. Thanks @Pollyotter @that means a lot

Had to sand back my table again today @Pollyotter The last coat of varnish I sprayed on blistered - most likely as it was too cold in the garage last night. A trip to Bunnings and finally finished the sanding. Going to stain it soon but needed a break first.

Re: Numb again

haha @Pollyotter we will make an Aussie of you in no time lol

Fur babies are good - still no bath for Toby but the table re-do got in the way today. Cat is happy as always - she is such a little sweetie.She has begun coming inside when I call her again - for a while she hid in the garden so it must be getting colder - that usually brings her in quicker. Tobes is asleep next to me but has been supervising the sanding today. He will sit next to me when I do the staining too - precious little thing.

My back is not too bad today - still uncomfortable but putting up with it without meds so that is a bonus. I will have some before bed to help ease the pain enough to sleep. I had a nap about midday and was going to have another one this afternoon but had to go to Bunnings instead.

Re: Numb again

I am @Pollyotter I was on class for half a day yesterday so wasn't siting all day - that certainly made a difference. I did all my housework last night I would usually do on a Saturday so have been able to rest in between sanding and staining. Going to spend the night in front of the tv for most of it. Washing up and another coat of stain to do later but apart from that not much else needing to be done - nothing that cannot wait anyway. What are you up to tonight?

I am under my bed with my laptop watching the youtube show unhhh. it makes me laugh so i do watch loads of it. I have planned my week next week so I am taking the rest of the weekend for myself.

On another note that kind of freaks me out. I have been talking with a lady who is very nice and says alot of nice things to me.
