Hi guys, it's me again.

I've been participating in the groups at this residential facility and I've been very pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoy them and benefit from working with a group of people.

I can also really see why I did need to take time off from school to do this and why I should be in a residential place. It's a lot harder than I expected. Something happened today that triggered an INTENSE flashback and I dissociated and it took a LOT of assistance from my case worker and the other therapists on staff and about three hours to stabilize the situation. I think I was triggered by attempting to face an emotion or something. I don't remember.

But yeah. Things are a little better for me and I am hopeful it will continue getting better despite it being difficult/triggering.
