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 ❤️🦋

Re: Struggling

That is so great to hear hun that you can do it without help but please just remember there is no shame in asking for help. We all need help from time to time.

Re: Struggling

@WIP @MDT @Lee82 - it's really hard to reach out to my family as they don't believe I have anything wrong with me. Just like how I went into hospital 4 times this year they didn't even come in and sit with me when I was at my worst, they thought I was just faking it when I wasn't. I was actually struggling to the point where I got the ambulance called on me 4 times this year because I was struggling. Apparently I was faking that and my friend told me to do it but they didn't it was my choice.... I'm safe

Then my family have told me that I don't need my support team I'm just faking it when I'm not. I need them at this stage. I don't want to go backwards I want to keep push forwards. They want me to trust them but I don't even want to trust them because they have upset me so much and I have lost my trust with them....

I really don't know how to feel. They don't know much anymore I just keep to myself and put a mask on like everything is okay when it isn't. I let it out all at night when no one is awake...

im safe

Re: Struggling

Thinking of you my friend @Fluttershy1

Are you able to get your suppor team with specialists etc to speak to your family about your MH? To tell them you are struggling and need their support.

Re: Struggling

Hey @Fluttershy1 I'm hearing a lot of distress today, it sounds pretty rough. The forums are fantastic for connection and peer support, but when you're feeling really overwhelmed please reach out to a helpline for that one-to-one support and remember your off-forums self-care 🌻
