Struggling

Struggling

Hi all,

Things are really hard my way I'm struggling I've been very distant from social media so I haven't been on forums much due to my MH being really bad. I just seem to be picking myself up constantly and it's not fun it's exhausting. I've constantly been switching alters, I've been told I have another one so that's making me scared and worried.
I am keeping to myself a lot because I'm struggling.
I'm trying to get myself stable so I can be better again and that I can do the things I want to do * once Covid is over *

I'm sorry that I haven't been around lately

Take care all ❤️🦋

Hi @Fluttershy1

How are you doing today?

It is great you have a pet companion with you during these times.

Do you have support other than your little doggo?

Someone you are able to confide in when having the thoughts of SH?

I hope today is a better day for you. If not remember the forum although faceless is here to listen.

Hi @Maggie @Zed1 @Faith-and-Hope @Appleblossom @Hamsolo01 @Dizzyizzy @Snowie @WIP @frog @NatureLover @Judi9877 @greenpea @eth @outlander -

today hasn't been a good day for candy, she hasn't been able to get out of bed, her depression is playing up and she is currently stuck in flashbacks and she is fighting SH urges.

Shes feeling lost and numb today. I'm basically the one around protecting her.
Things aren't great lately.
Wish that family could understand her better. They just assume that she doesn't have any MH conditions.
We are safe.

Just fighting SH urges.

Re: Struggling

Hi @Fluttershy1 ,

I'm sorry, it does sound like a really difficult day. Good on you for continuing to reach out and embrace our community in this way. I do feel concerned that SH urges feel as though they are building for you, but want you to know we are with you. Would you be open to getting in touch with Lifeline or SCBS for a chat? It’s important you stay safe, so also if you require urgent assistance please do phone emergency on 000.

Here with you,

Otter

Re: Struggling

@Fluttershy1

Different things have helped me. Its not all one thing. Eg sometimes a day of rocking myself gently, curled up in bed, and other times, I use the "urge" to propel me into some action like cooking, cleaning or gardening.

Just a pic:

Hey @Appleblossom -

Candy is curled up in bed with her safe blanket. She is currently listening to music and doing grounding.
