Something’s not right

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

I like mosaic art, I’ve never actually done any, but it intrigued me. Made up of hundreds of tiny pieces of stone, glass and ceramic. If you look at it close up it doesn’t really look like anything special, if anything it looks like a mess. But if you take a step back and view the whole picture- it’s a master piece. I guess it’s kind of like life. So many tiny parts, some messy if we look just at the one part. Some day i guess I’d hope that the mess of my life will at some point look half decent.

So here is part of my mosaic, bits and pieces kept tidy together 🙂

tagging you @Emelia8 cause you asked 🙂

Ahh nuts @Bow would've been good to have someone pop in hey. You could try to imagine what that safety plan might've looked like, and implement it for yourself?

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow I hear you hun, I know it's a really tough, big rough, gnarly no good day. I also know that you are a tough, gnarly, radically brave and fantastically powerful human, even if your brain is telling you otherwise. The day is nearly over darlin, just gotta hold on a bit longer, cope how you can, and hopefully get an early night if you can 💜

I don’t wanna be alone. I shouldn’t be alone. I want someone to hold me, tell me it is alright. But don’t touch me. No one can sooth the pain I feel inside. Please just leave me alone to grieve in peace.
It aches. It hurts. I feel so confused.
I didn’t tell anyone at the time and so I should suffer in silence again.
I don’t wanna do tonight. I’m too scared.

Hey @Bow ,

You have been incredibly brave. You are a real fighter and survivor even if it doesn't feel like that right now.

I recognise the pain and hurt you are in, and want you to know that we are sitting with you tonight so that you feel less alone.

Is your D with you tonight? Can she sleep with you? Is she feeling better now? (sorry for all the questions. Please don't feel obliged to answer if you don't feel up to it).

Re: My Mosaic

I hear you are scared. Is there someone you can call and talk to tonight? Maybe some real time 1:1 will help? @Bow

Re: My Mosaic

I have poured myself into art and creativity today. I’m really not feeling very safe at the moment and I’m struggling. I’ve gotta keep myself busy… or at least my hands busy. My mind still churns over and over though. I’m dreading tonight again. Last night was really rough. I could just not switch my mind off and it took me hours to get to sleep then I kept waking up. To say that I am tired today is an understatement.

I wanted to show you some of my art from today. I’m a little bit proud of them, really like how they have turned out. The friends one is for my best friend- it’s her birthday soon. There was one more mini one, but my support worker stopped by this afternoon and I gave one to her.
