Feeling better now and realised that I had probably been triggered by something. But at the time I can't see through what I am feeling at those times, it seems to be an eternal reality that will never end.

And of course, it does always pass. If only I could remember and believe that at the time.

Does anyone else struggle with this?
YES! I'm in the same boat right now. SO on edge. June is usually a hard month for me but this time it seems twice as bad. I know what my triggers are but I can't get a grip on them. It's scary really.
