My Mosaic

Hey @Bow just stopping by, so sorry to hear today has been so rough. How are you going now? Here if you want to chat 💜

I’m tired @Jynx

@Jynx I agreed to my friend coming to visit. But chatted with someone at the help centre about putting in some boundaries… cause I didn’t feel like talking about what I did last week. But I didn’t have enough courage and I let her ask me questions and I didn’t put those boundaries in.
now I feel extremely yuck and fighting to keep safe

I feel you @Bow ... feel tired to my bones sometimes. Have you had much on today?

I had said friend visit for an hour @Jynx and have spent the rest of the day either on the bike or treadmill

I’m so sorry you are still really struggling @Bow I really hope things improve for you soon. Just know we care about you

Oh sorry @Bow I only just saw your previous message.

Sounds like you felt pressured to speak on things, and look - when I'm in a crappy space, I find it really hard to assert my boundaries too. It's a feature of being dysregulated and having that frontal lobe in shut down, which really sucks when we're already feeling so vulnerable.

Is it something that (perhaps at a later time) you could touch on with your friend? Re-establish those boundaries a little later? Food for thought, but nothing that needs to be resolved right now.

I'm really sorry to hear you had to sort of...re-live it all. Do you think chatting with the SANE counsellors might help? Or are you done talking about it for today?

Hey @Bow

Really sorry to read you are feeling low at the moment.

Please know that I am sitting with you and we are always here for you.

Warm regards,

@Jynx Im usually ok talking about stuff with this friend, but I’m feeling really vulnerable at the moment and not in a good way and just didn’t need to go there today. It’s just made me feel so much worse 😩

Yeah @Bow I can imagine that would've been so intense, and triggering. Even if your friend only wanted to help. Please do what you can to take care of yourself tonight okay?

I'm signing off soon, but I do believe @tyme will be around soon and can also keep you company. Your forums fam has your back! 😘💜
