Talking through trauma and PTSD

Dissociation

Re: Dissociation

@destructive so amazing the "mind". Just wish as it seems to me. ... I have the control panel in a figurative way. (No one else). I should be able to go in there and sort things out, so I understand. ..,

Re: Dissociation

I guess sometimes, there's a level of 'push' and discomfort we all need in order to take steps forward. However, this doesn't mean we set unachievable goals. It's important our goals are bite sized and achievable. 

 

And yes, stay kind to yourself @Just !

Re: Dissociation

@tyme thanks, will try to take small steps. Just feel I'm sinking faster and small steps just won't get me to the top in time. But I'm in a better space "now" .

Re: Dissociation

@destructive How are you? Sorry got a bit self-centred the last few days. Snapped out of it, today. I hope your journey is giving you some sunshine every day. ? Yes I did like what you wrote about" the mind is amazing," especially when it can save/ protect you without you having to ask. The last bit wasn't quite what you said. I put my own take on it! 😁 It has made a positive impact on me. So thanks again. And please feel free to chat, support goes both ways in my book.

Re: Dissociation

@tyme working on the small steps. Got a fair bit sorted today. Started small, then it seems to go on a easy roll. So low and behold "my small step". Turned into a breakthrough. Might just link in @distructive too. As she has helped as well in this. Sunny day.

Re: Dissociation

@OM108 Thank you for taking a stand for yourself. Thank you for choosing “You”. Thank you for your courage and bravery. Quoted from The unshaming project. Thanks 0m108. It's had me sad, happy,angry, questioning etc etc but mostly under it alllll. growing....,

Re: Dissociation

@destructive the link in didn't work before. Don't know how to take you to other thing I wrote above in Re:Dissociation. How are you? ❤️ Thanks for all your help. @emu12345 @

Re: Dissociation

Glad to hear you got a bit sorted today @Just . Takes effort. Any plans for the week?

Re: Dissociation

Hi @Just sorry for slow reply. Not super connected tonight so will write more back when I can. Glad today was a little better

Re: Dissociation

How are you going @Just ? Just sitting in the car waiting to go into therapy and remembered I needed to come back to your post but still having trouble with thinking clearly so just thought I'd say hi and hope you're well.
