Re: My special place
We are heading up your way in August @Shaz51 for a friends daughters 21st. Just up there for 4 nights but no kids!!
At least if S1 moved back he would be a lot closer for you to see.

Re: My special place
Thanks @creative_writer I see pdoc next Wed. Need to talk to him about my sleeping meds. I don't know if it is my meds or my thoughts but I can't keep going like this.
Motivation is hard hon. How are you today?

Re: My special place
I'm really exhausted, had lots of morning anxiety, but it has settled a bit. Intrusive memories is just part of the cptsd package

Re: My special place
Oh I understand that cptsd package @creative_writer
Maybe you can just take the afternoon to look after yourself if you are exhausted. Take some time just to concentrate on you. Other things can wait.

Re: My special place
I think I do need a bit of rest, I'll be having some lunch soon.
Do you have plans for this afternoon?

Re: My special place
No real plans @creative_writer Will just watch the footy.
Perhaps after lunch you can give yourself time to rest. Maybe a nap or even do something nice for yourself.
I find it hard with cptsd. Sometimes I don't know where to start. I feel like there is so much baggage there.

Re: My special place
CPTSD can be heavy and it can be difficult to know where to start. Trauma is difficult to talk about. I personally find SI and SH easier to talk about than trauma. SI and SH are also hard to talk about, but they’re just relatively easier. It’s so weird

Re: My special place
@creative_writer watching it with hubby but he's asleep in his chair!!
I don't think it is weird hon. I find trauma a lot harder to speak about than sh or si, especially with my supports. I do however find sh and si easier to talk about to my pdoc than my psych.
It is weird how our brain thinks. Maybe that's why I feel like my brain is broken.
