This episode is taking forever to get over. I know what the underlying reason for it is though. I'm having crippling anxiety from flash backs and I just want the thoughts to go away, so I'm drawn to anything that will quiet my mind and give me an escape from reality for a bit.

Hi 99faeries, I am sorry to hear you are going through flashbacks and anxiety.

I hope you are feeling better soon.

Do you enjoy any computer games? I find those give me amazing distraction from anxiety and other uncomfortable feelings. Some games I enjoy are World of Warcraft, Stardew Valley, Dead by Daylight, The Sims, Final Fantasy XIV....but it's all about personal preference. Maybe you could find a game that appeals to you?

I also find exercise is an amazing distraction when you put all the focus on your body moving, the muscles being engaged, and the sweat being produced. If you ever want suggestions for free workouts or good games to play, feel free to shoot me a PM.

Dance! Meditate. You can get through!

Healthy distractions are your friend!

I hope you are having a better day.

SS... Do those things help you?

Yeah I’m so done with this mixed moderate episode. It can kiss my behind for all I care.

I know dancing helps you! I meditate daily, plus during yoga. I wouldn't be alive without yoga and meditation. I don't hate myself nearly as much when I can see that I'm not that important. We're all just as important, nothings in a Universe made of nothings. That's my take anyway.

I feel like I'm in an episode because I've been doing very risky things without seeing that it could end badly. But I can't figure out what episode I'm in. I spend all day in bed and am so tired during the day, but can't sleep day or night. I can't eat, I just want this to be over already.

Ever been told you're in a mixed mood?

Wild Coyote · Mar 11, 2018, 08:35 AM

I am sorry you are going through this.

Maybe just move from the bed to the sofa/recliner if you cannot do more than that. You might sleep less during the day and more at night?

I wish I could be more helpful.

Thinking of you.

Yes I've been mixed before. And I don't mean I can only sleep during the day. I was saying I can't sleep day or night.

SorryShaped · Mar 11, 2018, 09:18 AM

Stay out of sleeping places until time to sleep. That helps me

I hope you find a better balance soon.

Sometimes when I don’t know what I’m feeling I’ll jump in the shower with the music just blaring and I sing my heart out

leomama · Mar 11, 2018, 03:15 PM

Yeah I’m
Listening to house, trance, deadmau5, chill. Trying to get stuff done.

I had a bad episode once where I couldn’t sleep for days. That was tough-I really think it was the lack of sleep that switched me from euphoric to euphoric and crying at the same time.

I hope this is over soon
