Scared

I saw my psychologist this morning. It was a very intense session. Now my alters are out here and I can't lock them back away.

Re: Scared

Sounds like it was a super heavy session for you @The-red-centaur. Do you have things that normally help you to manage your alters? 

Re: Scared

@Jynx I don't know. Normally I'd just self harm. 

I just cooked lunch, it helped a little. I'm going out with a support worker at 3 and seeing my gp then we night go to the beach. I'm hoping just getting out helps. I feel trapped.

Re: Scared

@The-red-centaur can very much understand that, like being trapped within your own mind at the moment. I'm glad that you'll have some support soon. 

 

Until then, do you have any ways you could keep busy/distracted so you don't have the urge to sh? Or maybe give a helpline a buzz to chat to someone? Sometimes it's just about passing the time hey. 

 

Sending some hugs your way 💜

 just got back from the beach. Was really pretty. 

 

 

I'm struggling now though. I have bad urges and I'm tired.

What a gorgeous photo @The-red-centaur! I'm glad the beach was so nice, always good to get out into nature hey. 

 

Sorry to hear you're struggling with urges at the moment. Anything that could be helpful or anyone you can reach out to? Maybe take the time to make your space safer if you need? 

Re: Scared

@Jynx idk I should probably just go to bed.
