ComplexPosttraumaticStressDisorder 5h

Grateful for the space to heal but why are IFS sessions so hard?

Just wanted to say that to a group that actually knows what I’m saying 😅

I’m grateful for my therapist (and entire care team) for all of the validation and reassurance- but it’s just really hard because I never know what I’m doing and if I’m doing it “right.” Even though the rational side of me is like “there isn’t a right or wrong” and my therapist is reassuring me. I don’t understand the roadmap ahead of me because it is nothing like what I’m used to.

I’m grateful for my boyfriend not leaving me when my panic attacks and dysregulation gets so bad that I’m sure he is going to kick me out and he still keeps showing up and making it a safe place for me.

For me, life is a lot different (safer) this year than it was last year. I need to keep reminding myself that. I hope everyone is able to find a little bit of some relief for one of the many things that brings us here. ❤️

Your kind Monday reminder

I am having a really rough start to the week...
Drained, depressed, and drowning in all I need to do and get done.
A good friend reminded me to try to take better care of myself.
And not push myself so far beyond my capabilities.
It's just really hard to accept that I'm not able to do the things, I would like to do, due to lack of energy and mental health issues.
But I have to try to take care of myself today...
I have a very important meeting tomorrow.
So I'll cancel a course today to be able to go to that meeting tomorrow.
I feel terrible for canceling.
But I can't go.
I need a mental health day.
As we face a new week, I hope you'll do what you need to do to take care of yourself - whatever that may look like on any given day.
And I wish you the best possible week, you can have.

Gratitude & Glimmers 3d

Glimmers and gratitude from my week

I really appreciate when you share your gratitude, glimmers, and #photodiary in our group.
Thank you.
It lifts my spirits and inspires me to see others glimmers and gratitude.
And it helps me to focus on what's good in my life.
Battling #anhedonia is rough...
And it's such a heavy and burdensome symptom.
One that can suck all the joy and life out of you frightfully easy.
So I am really thankful for the help and inspiration I get from you all.
