I kind of want one if anyone sees this. Kind of scared of them, so giving might be difficult, but I’ve been feeling frail and vulnerable lately and I just felt like asking.

My brain has been so unstable for awhile and I’m coping horribly. Kind of losing lots of progress. I’d just kind of want a big hug. Usually I feel too lonely, guarded or alienated to open up just for those things, but I felt like saying I’d kind of want one here

@mytwistedsoul

Not directly, everything just escalates a bit too much. I kind of function as multiple, and usually I'd try to feel safe and more comfortable alone, in a way kind of similar to age regression if you know about that. But I've sort of a veil of stress or maybe dissociation constantly, my brain's not thinking in the most reliable ways. Kind of trails off a bit. Still able to do school and lab protocols, but it's just not thinking right. Kind of overelying on anything I can, and that's actually not ok, but that's fine. It usually gets more stable after awhile. I've just not been functioning the same in this sense. Just emotions ramp up in some set ways, but I just desperately kind of need cohesion or clarity right now

My base stress has been going way too low after moving from extremely stressful places/city and people, and then after so much time struggling alone and working on things, I found a small community online. First time I feel at home or ok in that sense, and maybe I'm getting more ready for those things sometimes. But internally it's gotten more confusing and unpredictable than ever before. Right now I feel like I should isolate and be on guard in some really set type of mindspace for self care, cannot shake it, but I feel like I'm losing that sense of community and semi friendships, or just that happiness I finally found, and years of progress, and it's confusing since it feels really set. I got so many messages and it's bringing back an older instance of this. I just also would want to feel safe and take care of more sensitive subjects in the way I mentioned, but I just keep feeling on stress and shaken, it's not calming down for him idk

And sorry for writing a ton, I'm just saying. I know it was a straightforward question, I was just writing

@ScaredLongNeckedFrend Hey :) no worries ok? You can write as much as you want to. Do you have much communication between you and the others? Or maybe you're closer to one in particular that can give you an idea what's causing the stress? It you moved recently - even if it was to some place less stressful - its a pretty big change for everyone. Is there something you can pinpoint when it comes to the feeling of losing that sense of community and friendships? Maybe something happened that you're not aware of? I know its not really good to isolate but at the same time sometimes we need to to find some calmness. Especially if someone inside is feeling overwhelmed. Like here people take self care breaks sometimes

I'd like a hug too if possible. I'm currently hugging a big stuffed animal (the ikea polar bear), but it's nowhere as good as a real hug


And for those that want a hug, here's a panda hug for all of you!

I hope all your days are going to be amazing!

@Laura @rosebeinghappy18 A hug sounds great! 💛

Today I cleaned up my apartment after 3 months of being depressed from being let go from my job. On unemployment and working on my self care. That includes working out, meeting up with friends, snuggling with my pets, and significant other. Life is like a wave in the ocean there will be constant ups and downs it’s all about how you navigate through the storm. 🌊

I need a hug because, today - for the first time, I fully Understood and Accepted, that the way I am treated by my dad and his family - is ABUSE. Absolutely, without a doubt, abuse. A different kind of abuse that I received from them in childhood, but abuse all the same. That I am a full grown adult and have been ACCEPTING abuse and I keep going back to them , allowing more. Allowing them to control my life still. How did I not SEE this before? How did I keep going back to them? I feel so stupid and ashamed. 😭

Don't feel so bad, It took me 50 years to figure out that my own mother was the toxic one in our family.

It's something to learn from and then advocate for yourself as you move forward whilst leaving them behind for your own sanity :)

@juliak1968

Thank you for sharing that with me...I am sorry you had to go through that. But I am damn proud you left them behind and found sanity and peace :)

That's the hard part for me - leaving them behind. I have already made the decision to - just doing emotional prep work and figuring out how to do it. Battling all the ingrained guilt and sifting through the guilt they throw at me. Unlearning everything I was taught, so that I CAN leave and free myself. I owe Myself this freedom!
