Coping with depression and EUPD

Beckisoul February 9th, 2021

Hi,

My biggest problem I think is anxiety, some paranoia and lack of trust in people. It isn't something that's always there because my default is to trust people, but when something triggers me it quickly becomes a spiral and I tend to think the worst and internalise everything. I stopped self-harming physically, but I've found that I'm getting better at overdoses, which have caused a few hospitalisations this year. Now my job is on the line because of this, and I was wondering if anyone had any ways of coping with overwhelming sui feelings or feelings of sh?

I'm not new to psychotherapy, and I try and use all the tools on 7 cups. My care co-ordinator is trying to get me on a STEPPS program. Has anyone tried this? Do you think it would help?

Thank you so much in advance.

Hey there beautiful soul, I am in the same position I can't trust anyone because I've been hurt so much! I always find when I get these feelings to do something that distracts me such as walking or doing something I love like a hobby I'm into singing and art something you have a passion for doing , watching a movie reading a book! Reaching out to others about how you feel open up i find this really helps much love x

Hi dear, I asked "the one who has power to edit" (mocking bow) to erase just my first message, but that obviously did not work :( I'll come back after our discussion and write for you some more ... ok? So sorry. ~ Platy
