This is literally more than 10 years old yet still relevant! Recommend to read

Rachel experiences perfectly articulates what I've experienced so far with mental health crisis /liaison services and how terrified I feel about having to be *assessed* by a stranger whilst feeling unsafe and exhausted yet with little other options. So I'm a bit envious of how she had a mum and friend to go in with her to A&E.. and a best friend at university when her first episode happened. Some people have no one at all.... at least it can feel that way.
I hope she got the help she needed.. 🙏🏾

quote of the day 🌚

When I was younger I used to collect quotes like this one (and I particularly liked Jim Morrison's).

I don't think general quotes can work magically or for anyone, but I do believe they can hide hints inside of them.

I always find them inspirational, even when I don't think they fit for me.

"If you don't control your mind, someone else will."

What do you think about this? :)

freely writing what comes to mind as a way to know what's on my mind 🖋️

Writing with no filters apart from my own artistic means as my only way to have a clue about what's really going on inside of me.

I have a hole in my mind and have no clues what's going on there and I'm only at the beginning of the process to reach it.

love myself
kept me company
there's detachment inside of me
I've killed
So what am I?
oblivion of my past
the many millions versions
warriors
the desire to be with you
Has it always been me?
just me and only me
my ego my will my life
back at my core
should never forget you
my confusion healing me
my little friends
I'm back at you again
wrappes by placid me
Taking care of you all.
I'll come to love you.

What helps you balance between being positive and accepting/ validating your feelings and thoughts 💭

Finding a balance between being positive and also accepting your sometimes negative feelings or thoughts that aren’t always so happy and dandy.

Both are equally valuable, but I guess what helps you to be self-aware or manage them so it’s not one more than the other? When possible.

#TheMighty #mind and #Stress :😵‍💫

Just checking in with you all. This has been one seriously emotionally difficult week for me, which I have not experienced since early December.

This is because I am literally living in a time of uncertainty, on many fronts. And my TBI induced PTSD mind seems to be striving to operate during this time in a state of anxiety. As I type this, I will ask, does the anxious mind crave stress? I am convinced my mind runs to or strives to live in an anxious state. Really, I am sure this form of addiction to stress is true: i.e., it’s like craving something or dealing with a habit.

Anyway, again, I am simply checking in. Honestly, I think my mind has kept me too internally focused to even open this app most of this week. Thanks for being here!
