I saw my therapist today...
We talked about identifying triggers. Unfortunately, I've identified one and that's these forums. Really, very sad. As a lot of you may know, I'm a mental health nurse. I'm use to helping people, it's like breathing for me. I learned that I need to accept the fact that I'm not the nurse, I am infact the "patient." I"m really struggling to separate the two. This is why these forums are such a trigger for me. I get too emotionally involved. I wish I could help each and every one of you, and well I guess, I should be taking care of myself first. I've deleted my acct. It will take a few days for it to go through. I wanted to just say this... I have learned more from all of you about this disorder and the effects it has on all of us, than I could ever have learned in a textbook. We are a rare breed with a tremendous amount of courage. We fight the fight everyday. KEEP FIGHTING!!! I sincerely wish nothing but the best for every one of you. Some stories just broke my heart. Keep going...ya gotta keep pushing forward, one step at a time. Good luck, God bless Hugs to you all. Plzsti

All the best on your journey.
This forum can trigger me too, I need to keep that in mind at times. I get very emotionally involved also. I've had a break from them before but can never seem to stay away for long. I miss the interacting with people who get what I am going though. You can enjoy a forum like this without instability but it does take practice and you need to know when to have a break from it. This is a good reminder for me too, thankyou. |
